Key Benefits To Working With Purple Square

  • Protect critical campaign revenue during unexpected disruption
  • Maintain compliant delivery under pressure
  • Provide resilient out-of-hours, weekend and holiday coverage
  • Recover campaigns before impact escalates

The Challenge

FDJ United’s sportsbook operations rely on precise, time‑sensitive campaign delivery. During Q2, two major incidents threatened revenue and compliance:

  • Unplanned Platform outage
    “Purple Square identified, recovered and reran 80+ campaigns following a major platform‑wide data delay.”
  • Last minute Miami Grand Prix schedule change
    “Adjusted campaign delivery following a late event time change, ensuring communications remained compliant and relevant.”

Without rapid intervention, FDJ United risked missed revenue, degraded customer experience, brand reputation damage, and most importantly compliance exposure in major territories.

  • Real‑time event and schedule monitoring

This ensured every critical communication was delivered accurately, on time, and in compliance with local regulations.
