Sportsbook Platform
The SBTech B2B solution goes well beyond a long list of sports and markets.
Front end
A custom visualisation centre shows statistics, scoreboards and split-screen odds, and every event on the platform can be live-streamed.
Trading and risk control
Operators set their own strategy with configurable payouts and limits that adjust automatically, backed by risk-based and time-based controls. Availability and commissions can be managed at any moment to keep payouts in check.
Higher-margin markets
Point and game bets in tennis and 1-minute and 5-minute markets in football and basketball open up more profitable in-play betting.
Player features
Players can place singles and accumulators with partial cash out and Bank My Stake. Detailed tracking and analysis of player behaviour lets operators tailor the experience to each customer.
In short, the solution is fully customisable and can be shaped to the needs of any operator.
