Acquire new crypto-active casino players through precision audience targeting
Trust Dice is a crypto-native casino and gaming platform offering provably fair games, sports betting, and live dealer experiences across permitted global markets. The platform accepts cryptocurrency exclusively and targets crypto-active players who expect transparency, fast payouts, and a broad game selection. Trust Dice ran a 60-day paid acquisition campaign on Blockchain-Ads to grow its registered player base through precision targeting of casino and sports betting audiences.
A note on attribution: Trust Dice's paid acquisition runs through a network of specialist affiliate partners operating independent campaigns on Blockchain-Ads. This case study highlights one affiliate-managed campaign and showcases the results Blockchain-Ads enables for Trust Dice advertisers. Results may differ among affiliates due to varying creative approaches and audience targeting.
Trust Dice needed to acquire crypto-active players at a sustainable CPA across a competitive iGaming landscape. The standard paid channels were unavailable and audience precision was critical to conversion quality. Three obstacles defined what that required:
Trust Dice required a platform to connect with active casino players and sports bettors using on-chain and behavioural signals. It needed to deliver deposit bonus messaging across gaming and gambling-focused publishers at scale. Blockchain-Ads provided that through four capabilities:
The campaign launched across Casino Players, Sports Bettors, and PC/Console Gaming interest segments simultaneously. Four creative angles entered the market:
All angles ran at equal weight across segments to generate baseline conversion data. Opening CPA sat at $203 across 44 conversions as the algorithm accumulated performance signal across the new audience pool.
Casino Players and Sports Bettors outperformed PC/Console Gaming interest segments on conversion depth. This confirmed that verified gambling behaviour was a stronger predictor of registration completion than broad gaming interest. The bonus and deposit angles drove the strongest engagement. The $25 first deposit bonus and deposit today and score a $25 bonus creatives produced the highest click-to-registration rates. Retargeting activated against users who had clicked through but not registered, delivering urgency-led creative to close the gap. CPA fell from $203 to $161, a 21% reduction, with 398 conversions delivered across the phase.
The final phase concentrated spend behind Casino Players and the bonus and deposit angles as the primary conversion drivers. The deposit now and play big creative scaled as the strongest performer among warm audiences already familiar with the $25 bonus offer. Retargeting delivered 23% of total campaign conversions from users re-engaged after initial non-conversion. CPA compressed from $161 to $67.87, a further 58% reduction. The 60-day campaign closed with 2,210 new players acquired and a 67% total CPA reduction from the Phase 1 starting point.
