Sportradar Wednesday announced the launch of Integrity Exchange, a new network enabling bookmakers to report suspicious betting activity. The Integrity Exchange will provide tools to bookmakers, free of charge, to combat match-fixing.
“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,” said Sportradar Integrity Services Managing Director Andreas Krannich in a statement. “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.”
The London-based sports technology company and supplier of sports integrity solutions to federations, leagues, law enforcement agencies, and state authorities will provide bookmakers with:
- A two-way channel to exchange information and raise integrity-related concerns with a team of integrity experts.
- Exclusive data-driven intelligence about the global match-fixing situation, and monthly and quarterly reports featuring insights and analysis.
- An onboarding session with a dedicated integrity expert and access to online education tools like webinars covering three topics: anti-match fixing, match-fixing theory, and social media integrity.
- An annual report featuring global match-fixing trends, regional and market breakdowns, sports being manipulated, and competition types most at risk.
The Integrity Exchange is Sportradar’s first official integrity initiative with bookmakers.
