iGaming.com Group buys and relaunches Relevo in Spain

iGaming.com Group has acquired and relaunched Relevo, a well-known Spanish digital sports media brand, and resumed publishing at Relevo.com under a new editorial structure. The move expands the group’s footprint in Spain and pairs the brand with iGaming.com’s technology, data and operations capabilities.

Why it matters: - The acquisition gives iGaming.com Group a stronger position in Spain, one of its stated long-term markets. - Relevo adds an established sports editorial brand to the group’s international digital publishing portfolio. - The relaunch puts a recognizable Spanish sports outlet back in market with resources aimed at making the business more sustainable over time.

What happened: - iGaming.com Group acquired Relevo and relaunched the brand at Relevo.com on August 13, 2026. - The transaction includes the Relevo brand, the Relevo.com domain, the archive and associated social media accounts. - Relevo now operates under a new editorial structure and operating model within iGaming.com Group.

The details: - Relevo publishes original sports reporting and analysis, led by football coverage and supported by basketball, cycling, motorsport and major sporting events. - The site is free to access and does not use display advertising or paywalled sections. - The 2026–27 LALIGA season is Relevo’s first major editorial cycle after the relaunch. - Relevo draws on iGaming.com Group’s digital publishing, technology, data and operations capabilities. - iGaming.com Group operates across multiple markets and employs nearly 300 professionals. - Relevo also publishes selected sports-betting content, including data-led analysis and responsible-gambling guides for adult audiences. - That betting content is limited to operators licensed by Spain’s gambling regulator, the DGOJ, and selected guides may include clearly disclosed affiliate links. - Commercial relationships do not influence editorial ratings, recommendations or placement. - Relevo launched with an experienced editorial team supported by specialist contributors and freelance journalists. - Recruitment is ongoing as the publication expands its coverage and formats. - Vocento launched Relevo in 2022 and retains no ownership interest, editorial role or commercial role in the brand.

Between the lines: - CEO Andreas Ditsche framed Spain as a long-term priority and described Relevo as an opportunity to invest in an established media brand with an existing sports audience. - Ditsche also said the newsroom keeps responsibility for editorial decisions, while iGaming.com Group provides technology, data and operational support. - That structure signals a push for scale without direct editorial control from the parent company. - The mix of sports journalism and licensed betting content shows how the brand is being positioned at the intersection of media and iGaming.

What's next: - Relevo will build out its coverage and formats as recruitment continues. - The first full test of the relaunch will come with the 2026–27 LALIGA season. - iGaming.com Group is aiming to grow Relevo into a high-quality, financially sustainable media brand over the long term.

The bottom line: - iGaming.com Group is betting that Relevo’s brand recognition, newsroom experience and sports audience can anchor a bigger Spanish media play.
