Bulgarian Sports Totalizator Update

We are the only gambling operator that absolutely regulates returns of more than 50% of its earnings to players in the form of winnings. In addition, another 33% of our income goes to support sports in our country. These commitments are the reason why the company does not have significant funds to invest in promoting our products or in modern retail outlets, as our competitors managed to do recently ”, said Damyan Damyanov, Executive Director of BST "However, all participants in our games can be proud because with every bet they place, they support mass and professional sports in our country. Bulgarians can feel calm because we are steadfastly following the principles of safe and responsible play, ”he added.

Strong online presence and new attractive games, such as the 2020 BST forecasts amid changes to the Gambling Act. "The Z generation lives online, so we have to follow it. This is one of our main tasks this year. This means a more significant presence of toto on the internet. The new regulation challenges us to be more flexible and look for alternative ways of distribution. Of course, we have not forgotten our loyal customers and longtime players. Despite the new requirements for our points of sale, we will make sure that they are able to find us in attractive and accessible locations, ”said Damyan Damyanov, Executive Director of BST.

The sports sweepstakes has prepared for the market 7 new instant lottery games for 2020. The hit offer among them will be "My Happy Day," and another will provoke participants to watch with interest the upcoming Summer Olympics in Tokyo. The new offer is aimed at adventure players in particular. Totto jackpots in at least two of the digital games will continue to be tempting with millions of dollars. Currently, three of the BST games can make at least three participants millionaires. These are Toto 2 - 6 of 49, Toto 2 - 6 of 42 and Toto 2 - Zodiac. 
 
"We are ready to offer a lot of fun and pleasant emotions to the participants in the games of happiness. We are the only gambling operator that absolutely regulates returns of more than 50% of its earnings to players in the form of winnings. In addition, another 33% of our income goes to support sports in our country. These commitments are the reason why the company does not have significant funds to invest in promoting our products or in modern retail outlets, as our competitors managed to do recently ”, said Mr. Damyanov. "However, all participants in our games can be proud because with every bet they place, they support mass and professional sports in our country. Bulgarians can feel calm because we are steadfastly following the principles of safe and responsible play, ”he added.
 
In 2019 alone, the BST provided MMC 30 million for sports in Bulgaria and more than 25 million were transferred as a fee to the state budget. The amount of profits distributed over the past year alone exceeds BGN 105 million.
 
"For the past 5 years we have been working in an extremely difficult environment with fierce competition. We are now facing new challenges. I believe we will overcome them and offer fun for the players and strong support for the state. I work with an exceptional team that has many years of professional experience in the sector. Their expertise is no alternative to our market, "commented Mr. Damyan Damyanov.
