Detailed Review

History and Founding

Alts Digital originated in 2018 as a small iGaming affiliate publisher in Portugal, initially serving the local market with comparison and review websites for online sportsbooks and casinos. Over time, it expanded geographically and thematically, entering the fintech space with websites that compare personal loans and credit offers. The company rebranded under the Alts Digital name to reflect its multi-vertical strategy.

Business Model

The group’s iGaming Media division houses several brands, of which Aposta Legal is the most prominent. Aposta Legal provides Portuguese-language content covering online casinos, bonuses, sports betting, and responsible gambling resources, monetized through affiliate partnerships with operators licensed in Portugal (SRIJ). The division acts as a transparent intermediary, advocating for player education while generating leads for partner operators. The Loans vertical replicates this model in personal finance, focusing on loan comparisons and credit advice. The Labs unit functions as an internal incubator for experimental products, including potential Web3 and crypto-related platforms. The company describes its approach as “technology-driven,” using proprietary tracking, SEO automation, and data analysis to optimize user acquisition and partner ROI.

Products and Brands

Alts Digital’s known products include Aposta Legal (an iGaming affiliate site in Portuguese), the broader iGaming Media Group (an umbrella for multiple casino and sports betting affiliate sites), a Loans portfolio of fintech affiliate websites, and the Labs division for R&D. No other specific brand names beyond Aposta Legal have been publicly confirmed by the company.

Leadership and Team

Alts Digital maintains a low public profile regarding its leadership. The company has not published an About Us page or disclosed its CEO, CTO, COO, or founder(s). Confirmed individuals include Layrena Meglio as Head of Affiliates, Rui F. Silva as Head of Product (based on a LinkedIn search snippet), and Daniel Pimenta as Full-Stack Developer (mentioned in a company LinkedIn update). The remote-first culture features a diverse team spanning Europe, Africa, and the Americas, with a headcount of 50–200 employees.
