Sportradar Integrity Services has launched its Sportradar Integrity Exchange network that will provide additional safeguarding measures regarding suspicious betting activity. The no-cost network will create an active role for bookmakers to fight against match-fixing.
Bookmakers will have access to a two-way channel through the network that allows them to exchange information and discuss topics related to integrity services with a team of experts. The network will also provide bookmakers with monthly, quarterly and annual reports on global match-fixing trends, competition types most at risk, as well as regional and market breakdowns.
Webinars and online education tools will also be available to bookmakers and will cover topics such as match-fixing theory and social media integrity.
The Sportradar Integrity Exchange is the first network geared toward bookmakers to get them actively involved in combatting match-fixing.
Sportradar Integrity Services Managing Director Andreas Krannich said: “We’re inviting bookmakers to strengthen their contribution to the anti-match-fixing fight. The Sportradar Integrity Exchange is a key part of our integrity vision to tackle match-fixing and follows the Universal Fraud Detection System (UFDS) bet monitoring system for sports organizations that we made free-of-charge last year.
“It means that we can address corruption from different aspects of the industry – it’s the flip side of the same coin and is the next step in our strategy to fight the growing match-fixing problem.”
Sportradar started in 2001. The global sports technology company services sports betting operators, sports federations, news media and consumer platforms.
Its Sportradar Integrity Services subsidiary supplies sports integrity solutions to more than 150 sports federations, leagues, law enforcement and state authorities.
