2017 Results: Notes on a remarkable year
2017 was an exceptionally good year for KamaGames for a number of reasons. We were very proud to report a gross revenue figure of $57.5 million, which is an increase of 63.4% based on 2016’s figure of $35.2 million.
Over the last year, we’ve seen a further upturn in just about every graph, including Average Revenue Per Paying User (ARPPU), the share of paying users, and the number of Daily Active Users (DAU) and we believe that we are consistently within close reach and even sometimes out-performing our competition.
There is a number of reasons for this growth which we would like to share:
As well as offering new modes and games to our players, KamaGames is passionate about expanding its audience and making it easier for players to access our portfolio. We were the first to release an HTML5 version of social poker via the VK.com platform. VK is one of the largest social networks for Eastern European users.
Our exclusive Party modes were also another great success for us in 2017. These modes give a new twist to a classic game of poker, offering unique rules and ways to play. Party modes have proven to be one of the most effective ways to not just increase the average playing session time, but also the amount of played games and retention rate.

Then there were our partnerships. Continuing on our exciting partnership with Rush Street Productions, KamaGames released a massive update to the hugely popular Poker Night in America app. Launched to coincide with the start of the new live/celebrity version of the hit TV show “Poker Night in America”, “Poker Night LIVE”, this update saw two brand new features being added to the game. In addition to these updates, during the first 13-week run of Poker Night LIVE on CBS Sports Network, three lucky players from the app sweepstakes were awarded an all-expenses-paid trip to play at the Poker Night LIVE table at The Gardens Casino in Los Angeles California.
2018 is already shaping up to be even better than 2017. We are incredibly proud of what we achieved in recent years, and are very excited about the product launches, features and surprises we have in store for the future.
