The story

Betclic was created in London by Eric Moncada and Nicolas Béraud in 2005 with a single employee and an investment of 3 million euros. In 2008 Mangas Gaming bought a 75% share of Betclic from its owner for 50 million euros, with SBM buying a 50% share in the company the following year in 2009. In 2010 it was announced that Betclic held 35–40% of the market share in France, being the largest betting company in the country, holding 36% of the market in 2013. During Euro 2012, Betclic saw 2 million bets being placed over the sporting competition, seeing a profit made over that time of 12 million euros. On 31 May 2016, Betclic merged with online poker company, Everest Poker. In October 2016, they moved their London and Paris offices to Bordeaux. In September 2018, Betclic acquired a licence to operate in Poland.

In 2019, the Betclic Group withdrew from the UK online gambling market due to "low performance".

In 2025, Betclic exited the Italian market with Betsson acquiring its local subsidiary and license in the country.
