Exclusive Forrester Report on AI in Marketing
Why it matters:
Successful iGaming brands craft moments of excitement that go beyond bonuses. While gamification alone promises to deliver this, the magic happens when game-like elements meet AI solutions to create highly personalized, dynamic, and unforgettable experiences for each player. It isn’t about adding game elements—it’s about delivering the right ones to the right players at the perfect moment. It results in meaningful, personalized experiences that enhance excitement, brand familiarity, and loyalty.
Key takeaways:
Gamification emerged as an engaging alternative to bonuses, emphasizing game mechanisms like leaderboards, challenges, and fun. However, without AI personalization, it risks becoming a gimmick that players quickly see through. The solution lies within AI-Orchestrated Gamification, where artificial intelligence creates, manages, and optimizes game-like experiences tailored to each player.
