Gaules’ social media reach includes 2.8 million followers on Twitch, 1.1 million followers on Instagram, 733,300 followers on Twitter and 637,000 subscribers on YouTube. 

Under the agreement, VamosGG will have exclusive rights to deliver casino and esports betting for the tournament broadcast in Brazil.

 VamosGG will also be featured in content and advertisements throughout the event, resulting in increased visibility for its wagering services.

VamosGG will work with Gaules to produce esports-related content leading up to and during the event.

Scott Burton, CEO of FansUnite, commented,

“This announcement acts as our real public launch of Vamosgg.com, our Brazilian esports first betting and casino site. Being granted the exclusive esports betting and casino rights is a major win for us and the VamosGG brand. Our platform’s ability to localize sights for very specific markets helped us secure this great partnership with Gaules.

Not only is Brazil one of the largest esports betting markets globally but it is also one of the fastest growing. CS:GO has always been our biggest betting market and Brazil represents the second biggest CS:GO viewership in the world. This is a massive opportunity for us to rapidly grow VamosGG and become a dominant brand in the market.”
