Reading Time: 5 minutes

The first part of the iGaming user experience (UX) testing deep dive compared crowdtesting against traditional testing and looked into how TESTA’s crowd-based solutions can better provide feedback throughout the typical player’s journey for iGaming platforms.

Part two will show how TESTA’s crowdsourced UX testing are tailored to the iGaming market, and how the Testa platform can streamline iGaming testing with proven success.

The iGaming market has quickly evolved, and operators are finding out that obtaining authentic user experiences can be a challenging task. Users are busy enjoying themselves and are reluctant to spend time giving meaningful feedback.

The scarcity of willing players sharing their experiences is a problem. Particularly in industries like iGaming where good UX experience can make or break a platform.

This article will explore the cause of tester scarcity as well as how Testa’s platform poses an innovative solution to it.

Causes of user feedback scarcity

Before getting into solutions, it’s crucial to understand the challenges. Here, we list the dominant factors contributing to the scarcity and describe how they create a unique set of obstacles for operators:

Causes of user feedback scarcity in iGaming
  1. Data privacy concerns:
    Players worry about their data privacy, hindering sharing of experiences, especially in an industry dealing with sensitive information.
  2. Social stigma associated with gambling:
    The social stigma linked to gambling limits open discussion of experiences, reducing valuable feedback.
  3. Potential legal implications:
    In regions with strict gambling regulations or where gambling is prohibited, users may fear legal consequences, limiting participation in testing.
  4. Lack of incentives or motivation:
    Without proper incentives or motivation, users may not invest time and effort in sharing experiences. Players seek escapism, not a second job.
  5. Cultural norms:
    Cultural norms impact willingness to engage in iGaming testing, further reducing participant numbers.
