Launch Of Matchbook Brokerage service
Matchbook is delighted to launch Matchbook Brokerage. Alongside its peer-to-peer Exchange, Matchbook offers an exclusive service to match large or bespoke trades that may not be immediately possible on our Exchange markets.
The Matchbook Brokerage team works with specialist counterparties, with the best pricing and liquidity providers in the industry, who are available to lay bets across a wide variety of betting markets or offer unique prices on bespoke trades.
The Matchbook Brokerage service is available Monday to Sunday.
Furthermore, Matchbook Brokerage provides a unique opportunity for operators within the industry who may be looking to hedge any marketing promotion or customer liabilities. This service will allow operators to run bigger promotions, take larger bets, and reduce
operational exposure.
Matchbook’s Head Of Commerical Will Turl said: At Matchbook, we understand that bettors are frustrated at being stake factored by bookmakers or are unable to find the liquidity in the market for their bets. For these customers, we are delighted to be able to launch the Matchbook Brokerage service. Working with industry-leading liquidity providers, our brokerage team will be able to provide customers and operators with a quote for the very biggest of bets. Only last week, we had significant interest in player prop markets for the NBA Finals and facilitated 26 bets and over $100k stakes on those markets. We also had some notable action through our Brokerage service on Royal Ascot. This is the service that the betting industry has been begging for, and Matchbook is pleased to deliver it.
For further information on how the service works and how to get in touch with our team, visit matchbook.com/brokerage Matchbook is a peer-to-peer betting exchange designed for smart bettors who want better value, deeper liquidity and exceptional customer service.

BGaming Secures Approval for Brazil
Rapidly expanding content provider continues LatAm expansion by certifying its games in Brazil.
Popular iGaming content provider BGaming is proud to announce it has received full certification and is now ready to enter the Brazilian market.
BGaming’s technical system of gaming software and portfolio have received approval from Gaming Associates Labs (GA Lab) and Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), certifying that its products are fully compliant and eligible to enter the Brazilian market. GLI is among the industry’s most rigorous testing bodies, ensuring providers fully comply with industry standards before entering a market.
By securing these certificates, BGaming can now open the door to working with licensed operators within Brazil. Brazilian players will have the opportunity to experience BGaming’s innovative portfolio for the first time, including creative titles like Snoop Dogg Dollars, Panda Luck, and Aztec Clusters.
This entry into Brazil represents a pivotal moment in BGaming’s global expansion strategy, particularly as it focuses on the burgeoning Latin American market. The company was recently awarded a supplier’s certification to enter Peru and Columbia at the end of 2024, further highlighting its commitment to growth in the region.
Antonina Ivanova, Head of Legal & Compliance at BGaming, said: “Brazil is one of the most dynamic iGaming markets in the world right now. Receiving this approval is a massive milestone for BGaming and a testament to our entire team’s hard work and dedication.
“Latin America plays a pivotal role in our global expansion strategy, and securing this certification makes a strong statement about the company’s intention to shake things up throughout 2025. We are committed to putting our products in front of as many players as possible, and we cannot wait to hit the ground running in Brazil.”
