FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SAM MEDIA PARTNERS WITH eCLUTCH TO EXPAND GLOBAL REACH OF MOBILE ESPORTS CONTENT
— Sam Media, a leading mobile-first content and monetisation company, today announced the official integration of eCLUTCH into its ecosystem, marking a significant milestone in expanding its premium gaming and eSports portfolio for mobile network operators worldwide.
The service has already successfully rolled out across key telecom networks in Switzerland and Sweden, with further global expansion actively underway. By integrating eCLUTCH, Sam Media enables mobile operators to capture and monetise one of the fastest-growing and most engaged user demographics, Gen Z and millennial gamers. The collaboration provides telecom operators with a powerful, subscription-based value proposition that enhances user engagement, drives brand loyalty, and minimises customer churn.
Driving Growth and Monetisation through Mobile Ecosystems
“The partnership with eCLUTCH enables Sam Media to bring eSports content to mobile operators worldwide. eSports is extremely popular among young people, a strategically important user group for the mobile operators. Offering eCLUTCH to their customers drives monetisation of the younger user base and also increases their connection with the mobile operator brand. This stronger loyalty will help reduce churn…”
— Alexis Bartelds, CEO of Sam Media
“Partnering with Sam Media is a key milestone in eClutch’s global expansion, enabling us to deliver premium eSports content seamlessly through mobile operators at scale. By combining our content with Sam Media’s distribution and carrier billing expertise, we’re unlocking new monetisation opportunities while bringing engaging, mobile-first eSports experiences closer to a highly connected, next-generation audience.”
— Arnaud Verlhac, CEO of eCLUTCH
Unlocking Engagement and Retention at Scale
This first-of-its-kind agreement redefines how competitive gaming content is distributed and monetised. Sam Media applies its specialised expertise in performance marketing, user acquisition, and direct carrier billing to ensure frictionless onboarding and maximised conversion rates for operators.
A core benefit of the eCLUTCH platform is its carefully managed, quality-first content strategy. Rather than overwhelming users with sheer volume, it prioritises premium, relevant eSports entertainment. This approach results in longer session times, stronger user retention, and a brand-safe, controlled digital environment that protects both consumers and telecom brands.
