Online poker: 1 in 3 players in France now plays on the Betclic room!

Bordeaux, December 9, 2025 - One year after its launch, Betclic's online poker platform confirms its exceptional momentum and continues to transform the gaming experience. With 1 in 3 poker players in France now active on its platform and the ability to attract twice as many new players as the rest of the market, Betclic establishes itself as one of the engines of the new wave of online poker. 

With its new poker platform, Betclic changes the rules of the game and outperforms the market 

Online poker had not seen a significant disruption for over a decade. By launching its proprietary platform a year ago, Betclic initiated a true paradigm shift: radically modernizing the gaming experience, relying on a 100% Betclic player liquidity, and taking control of its technology to design a smoother, more dynamic, and constantly evolving platform, aligned with the expectations of today's players and the new generation. 

This repositioning was accompanied by an unprecedented choice in the market: a mobile-first approach, where online poker still largely relied on choices inherited from the desktop golden age. A decision that redefines the standards of the experience, modernizes usage, and positions Betclic as a player capable of moving a market that has remained stagnant for too long. 

And the results are here. One year after its launch, the Betclic platform: 

• Shows a growth of +16% in active players, 5 points higher than the market average. 

• Attracts twice as many new players as other operators in 2025. 

• Now brings together more than a third of online poker players in France. 

These performances confirm the attractiveness of a product that has managed to renew its codes and respond to the demand for a more modern experience. 

A resolutely disruptive poker offering: modernity, simplicity, and security

The new technological architecture now allows Betclic to offer a high-performance and truly differentiating poker offer, structured around three pillars. 

A comprehensive and continuously improving product: Spin & Rush, classic tournaments, KO tournaments, Cash Game… The platform offers one of the richest catalogs on the market. The mobile and desktop application is constantly improving based on player feedback, and weekly updates allow for continuous adaptation of the offering. 

An experience designed for pleasure and fluidity: inspired by video game codes, the interface is primarily designed for mobile, offering enhanced playability, optimal readability, and modernized gameplay. Betclic has also reimagined how to energize the experience with an unprecedented promotion strategy, open to the entire community, to make poker more fun and inclusive. The result: a significant increase in engagement and a constantly evolving player liquidity, with 130 tournaments per day and guarantees that can reach up to 50,000 euros. 

A controlled and secure environment: finally, Betclic strengthens its policy of protecting the integrity of games by investing in the fight against bots, or by making strong decisions, such as banning HUDs and software that provide real-time statistics at the tables. 

For Cyril Henry, Head of Product at Betclic: "For a year now, we have been building a truly innovative product, designed for the real usage of players. We can now evolve our offering without limits and make poker accessible to the largest number of people, capable of attracting both new and regular players. At Betclic, players thus find an innovative experience that puts the pleasure of the game at the heart of the experience.” 

This commitment to quality has allowed Betclic to establish itself as one of the most modern and reliable rooms in the market. The technological robustness of the platform, the fluidity of gameplay, and the constant attention to the integrity of the game contribute to creating player engagement and trust. Betclic intends
