s we see the iGaming industry mature, we are all looking to the next generations of gamblers — Generation Z and Millennials — who, by definition of their unique consumer characteristics, are forcing affiliates to rethink how to approach these player audiences. Born into the digital age, Gen Z and Millennials think very differently about what excites and motivates them to purchase or interact online compared to previous generations. They have higher demands to meet in terms of the ways affiliates should market and promote opportunities and offers to them. Often, for example, they’re more value-driven, socially conscious, and highly selective in how they engage with brands online. For iGaming affiliates, this poses a number of unique challenges — so we need to look at the preferences, dislikes, and engagement habits of Gen Z and Millennials, to better understand them, while also providing actionable strategies to engage them. GTehne ZU anni qduMe Ai l pl epne na il aolfs Gen Z and Millennials are, on paper, the perfect audience for iGaming affiliates. They’re tech-savvy, share similarities in their love for “everything digital,” and are willing to put their trust in digital creators and try new online platforms. Their differences, however, also affect how they interact with the iGaming world — and it’s important to consider these when trying to engage with them. Millennials, born between 1981 and 1996, were, essentially, frontseat viewers in the growth of the internet. They experienced, first hand, the rise of the internet, and saw how it began to impact their lives. They tend to be suckers for nostalgia throw backs in terms of music, clothes and experiences and also enjoy deeper, narrative-driven content — making them drawn to engaging content that combines creativity with familiarity vs. price-driven offerings. Gen Z, on the other hand — born after 1997 and before 2012 — don’t even know a world without the internet being in and a part of it. Their attention spans may be shorter, but they’re exceptionally talented at filtering out irrelevant content — prioritizing experiences that are visually captivating, easy to understand, and designed for fast paced interaction. While there’s some key differences between these two generations, their similarities mean they both hate intrusive ads, unclear messaging, and brands that don’t live up to their promises — all factors to consider when engaging with them and promoting brands on your affiliate site that don’t live up to these profile customer’s expectations. Now, let’s look at three ways you can engage these younger generations on a level that is meaningful and elicits a better response and conversion rate. of iGamers vide 19 GPWAtimes.org
