VERSUSbet has renewed its partnership with NetRefer, continuing a six-year collaboration that has supported the growth of the operator's affiliate programme.
In that time, VERSUSbet has evolved from a single brand in 2020 into a five-brand portfolio in 2026, with Casino and Sportsbook forming the foundation of its presence across multiple international markets.
VERSUSbet forms part of Grupo Orenes, one of Spain's most established gaming and leisure groups, with a history stretching back more than half a century. In recent years, the group has accelerated the expansion of its online business, taking VERSUSbet into Portugal and Mexico in 2024 before entering Colombia and Brazil in 2025.
Football has also played a prominent role in VERSUSbet's brand strategy, with major club partnerships helping to build its profile internationally. Previous collaborations have included Atlético de Madrid, Bayern Munich, Juventus and Sevilla, while VERSUSbet's relationship with Real Madrid, first established in 2024, has now expanded through a new five-year agreement focused on Latin America. The agreement covers key markets including Brazil and Mexico and makes VERSUSbet Real Madrid's first betting partner in Brazil, following the launch of VERSUSbet Brazil in 2025.
VERSUSbet's expansion has also increased the complexity of managing affiliate activity across multiple brands and markets. Maintaining an overall view of programme performance while retaining the ability to understand and manage each brand individually becomes increasingly important as an operation develops.
The NetRefer Platform brings VERSUS's brands, performance insights and day-to-day affiliate programme management together within one centralised environment. This gives its affiliate team one place from which to monitor activity, access key information and manage the different moving parts of its programme without losing sight of the wider picture.
“Being able to see our overall data and key KPIs at a glance, while still managing each of our brands individually within the same account, is particularly valuable to our team. We regularly use tools such as the Advanced Affiliate Report and the ability to create unlimited rewards to monitor our affiliates and access the KPIs we need. We also really value the speed at which technical issues are resolved and having direct contact with our Dedicated Account Manager, who is always on hand when we need support.”
Laura Troya, Affiliate Manager at Grupo Orenes
For deeper analysis, NetRefer's BI Analytics solution, the Report Builder, provides highly customisable reporting tailored to the performance indicators that matter most. Teams can create dashboards and reports around their own requirements, bringing together the information most relevant to how they monitor performance across affiliates, campaigns and brands.
Enhanced Tracking adds further context to acquisition activity through Bot Detection and User Agent Details. Together, these capabilities provide additional information about the traffic reaching an operator's brands, helping teams investigate attribution, traffic quality and compliance in greater detail.
As affiliate operations expand across brands and markets, the technology supporting them also needs to scale alongside their requirements. NetRefer combines programme management with robust data capabilities, flexible integrations and enterprise-grade infrastructure, providing the foundation for increasingly complex affiliate operations without sacrificing visibility or control.
But technology is only one part of a long-term platform partnership. As an affiliate operation develops, understanding how a client's priorities, requirements and ways of working change is equally important to ensuring the support surrounding the Platform continues to reflect the business using it.
“A successful long-term partnership comes from understanding not only where a client is today, but where they want to go next. Working closely with the Grupo Orenes team has allowed us to see first-hand how their priorities have changed as their operation has expanded. That close communication means we can provide the right support when it's needed, and we're proud to continue working alongside them.”
Annalise Ciantar Muscat, NetRefer's Dedicated Account Manager to VERSUS
Six years and five brands later, the scale of VERSUS's affiliate operation looks very different from when the partnership began in 2020. What started with a single brand now encompasses a growing international portfolio, supported by the technology, data capabilities and dedicated relationship needed to manage its affiliate programme as a whole while retaining visibility across its individual brands.
