Clubhouse - A YouTube Network Powered by Betway

Betway, a leading sports betting brand with strong recognition among older audiences, faced a familiar challenge: awareness without affection. In a saturated market where betting operators blur together, the brand needed to move beyond tolerance and build genuine emotional connection with 25-35 year old men. The solution wasn't louder advertising, but earning entry into the spaces where culture actually moves: group chats, private threads, and friend networks. By creating sport-led entertainment that sparks banter and debate, Betway could become social currency: content worth sharing not as advertising, but as something people genuinely want to talk about. The goal was simple: build love in a crowded category by entertaining first, so when the moment comes to bet, Betway is the instinctive choice.

The answer was Clubhouse, a YouTube network powered by Betway featuring ten distinct channels spanning football debate (Settle It), nostalgia (Rematch), topical sports coverage (Clutch 9), betting opinion (Who You Got), and boxing entertainment (Clubhouse Boxing). Rather than one generic channel, this ecosystem lets fans opt into content that speaks directly to them, featuring major names from Eddie Hearn to Frank Bruno. The results proved the strategy: 50 million views in eight weeks, organic sharing across WhatsApp and social platforms, and earned media coverage from Daily Mail, The Sun, LADbible and more. Betway didn't rent attention, it built owned platforms where commercial messaging integrates naturally into entertainment people care about, creating scalable, long-term brand equity that turns cultural presence into genuine affinity.
