Show Notes

Ep. 73 features Martin Burt from ClearStake, which provides accurate, real-time customer risk profiling.

Hear him discuss:

  • ClearStake’s origins as a payments business, which it pivoted after “seeing operators try to figure out what to do with affordability”
  • The impact of the UK government white paper to reform gambling regulations, and the increased emphasis it has placed on affordability checks
  • How ClearStake is riding the ‘open banking’ wave in the UK to streamline the process for both operators and bettors alike
  • Solving the problem of a 90% churn rate for customers that are asked to provide financial data
  • His view of how the US market will eventually address affordability based on the UK market
  • The importance of having engaged and supportive investors on the cap table - especially as a first-time founder
