Why Chalkline?

About Chalkline

Founded in early 2016, Chalkline Sports combines industry expertise from sports betting, technology, business intelligence, media and digital marketing.

Chalkline Sports was built on the premise that sports betting operators, affiliates and media companies in high-growth markets (North America and Africa) are fundamentally under-served. Customers demand snack-sized, mobile-first engagement and personalization during the 150 times they check their phones each day.

Operators, affiliates and media companies require access to cost-effective engagement tools to communicate more powerfully with an ever mobile-first world. And to harness real-time business intelligence tools to continuously measure and encourage scalable growth.

Chalkline is laser-focused on building scalable technology that solves these business challenges and seamlessly integrates with gaming and media operations to drive value across the enterprise.

What We’ve Done Before: 

  • Led sportsbooks and ADWs in the US and South Africa.
  • Created a profitable international ticketing company.
  • Founded and sold three technology companies (among the founders).
  • Built business intelligence solutions for sports betting and ticketing industries.
  • Built relationships with thousands of B2B clients and millions of consumers.
