How Qzino Achieved Sub-$90 Casino Acquisition CPA Across Worldwide and US Markets with Blockchain-Ads

Player acquisition and first-time deposits
Qzino is a crypto casino offering a no-KYC registration flow, instant payouts, and a high-value welcome bonus stack of up to 1,140% across first deposits. The platform targets crypto-native casino players who prioritise frictionless onboarding and large bonus multipliers over the compliance requirements of licensed fiat casinos. Qzino competes on bonus depth, withdrawal speed, and a gamified VIP progression system that rewards active players with increasing benefits.
A note on attribution: Qzino's campaigns on Blockchain-Ads are run by affiliate partners, each operating independently with their own geo focus and creative strategy. This case study covers one affiliate-managed campaign and reflects what Blockchain-Ads can deliver for Qzino-aligned partners across worldwide and US markets. Results across the affiliate network will vary based on market selection, offer angles, and campaign format.
Qzino needed to establish a worldwide acquisition pipeline for a newly launched crypto casino brand while simultaneously identifying a high-value single-market expansion opportunity. Three obstacles shaped how that had to be approached:
Crypto casino advertising is restricted on Google and Meta across virtually all of Qzino's target markets, including the United States, removing every mainstream acquisition channel before the campaign began. For a newly launched brand needing to establish presence across 175+ markets while also cracking a competitive single-market like the US, only a platform with both global reach and granular targeting could deliver. Blockchain-Ads provided that through four capabilities:
The campaign launched with a worldwide display campaign across 175+ markets. Multiple creative angles ran simultaneously to identify which messages resonated with crypto audiences encountering Qzino for the first time. "No KYC Crypto Casino" led with the brand's privacy-first positioning. "Welcome Bonus up to 1,140%" communicated the bonus stack depth. A wallet-themed creative targeted crypto holders directly with a clean "Play Now" CTA. The anchor campaign delivered 209 conversions at a $78.72 CPA and a 1.39% conversion rate across 2.6M impressions, establishing Qzino's baseline acquisition efficiency.
A retargeting campaign and a targeted test campaign activated in Month 2 to re-engage worldwide visitors from Phase 1. The retargeting creative led with the "No KYC Crypto Casino" angle, reinforcing the brand's core positioning with audiences who had clicked but not yet converted. Both campaigns ran at low spend to validate audience receptiveness before the US expansion. The retargeting campaign delivered a 0.97% CTR, the highest in the account, confirming strong re-engagement intent among warmed audiences.
A Flux Campaign PMax launched in Month 3 targeting the United States exclusively. Three creative angles ran simultaneously under automated optimisation. The no-KYC instant payout angle used a vivid crypto coins visual. The "10,500 USDT Bonus + 650 Free Spins" angle led with the full bonus stack. The "Complete The Challenge: Become VIP" angle introduced Qzino's gamified progression mechanic. Automated Flux optimisation identified the highest-converting placements across US crypto and casino inventory. The PMax campaign delivered 84 conversions at a $92.89 CPA across 1.4M US impressions.
