Tech specialist powers leading sportsbook with next wave in rapid-fire Flash Markets

Banach Technology, the leading supplier of player-performance and in-play betting markets for international sportsbooks, has announced its latest partnership with international gaming giant, Betsson Group.

Under the terms of the agreement, the Malta-headquartered operator will roll out Banach’s formidable squad of Match and Player Flash Markets, a new product suite which enables customers to bet on rapid-cycling selections in any match. These partitioned segments vary in their quick-fire markets, covering simple binary outcomes around propositions such as what will happen in the next minute of a game (e.g. throw-in, corner, goal), or how will a player perform in a stipulated five-minute period (e.g. Mo Salah recording a shot, assist or goal from 20th-25th minute).

Betsson will also be launching Banach’s next generation of football player-proposition markets, which track individual player performance across a series of criteria (e.g. goals, assists, tackles or passes) in any given game. This allows Betsson’s global customer-base to benefit from granular-level betting on their favourite native players across all of the major European leagues.

The net result is an absorbing, localised props-portfolio that increases levels of customer activity both pre-match and in-play. It also adds a distinct dimension to betting on a sport where the user experience can sometimes be blunted by reams of derivative long-tail markets which lack either immediate game-relevance or engaging player-based specificity.

It’s just the latest evolution in Banach’s unique player-props functionality, which harnesses advanced mathematical models for the most sophisticated and reactive odds on player-specific markets across a comprehensive suite of sports.

Player-props betting currently represents the most progressive product segment for worldwide sportsbooks. Already hugely popular across the UK and Europe, Banach is also tailoring its unique offering to US sports, where player-performance wagering is in demand. Consequently, the Dublin-based supplier is targeting a similar breadth of pre-match and in-play props product for the NFL and NBA whose respective 2020/21 seasons are set to renew this autumn.

Mark Hughes, CEO of Banach, said: “As top-class live sport continues to return from the sidelines, we’re delighted to team up with Betsson to improve player engagement with a new series of props markets that can be effortlessly localised to any given region or sport.

“Banach’s trademark innovation is helping its global partners differentiate themselves in a variety of markets where domestic operators need localised content to stand out in a homogenous space and speak to personalised modern trends in engagement around specific moments or individual players, especially in-play.”

Joakim Thor, Product Director for Sports at Betsson Group, added: “Banach is allowing us to further expand our betting offering and introduce an additional layer of entertainment in our product. With Player Props, customers can bet on their favourite players in different forms. Whilst, with Flash Markets, we’re adding even more pulse to live betting and allowing customers to bet on different actions in the game.

“Over the past couple of years, we have invested heavily in our sportsbook and have made tremendous progress and improvements. With Banach’s technology, we are continuing on this journey of further strengthening our offering and football product.”

Bacta commissioned research shows huge support for seaside arcades led by Gen Z

The findings of independent research conducted by Censuswide among a sample of 2,000 UK Nationally representative respondents aged 16+ shows that Generation Z has fallen in love with the seaside arcades so popular with their grandparents. 

The research reveals that 8 in 10 respondents (81 percent) view seaside arcades as being part of British culture and it is young Brits that are banging the drum for arcades, with 90 percent of 25–34-year-olds backing their importance.

Despite overwhelming public support from Britain’s younger generations, seaside arcades continue to face a perfect storm of challenges from rising energy and staffing costs, plus the threat of increased taxation as suggested by former Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

72 percent say Government should do more to protect them – with 86 percent of those aged 25-34-years calling for urgent action.

The research findings confirm the central role played by seaside arcades with 72 percent of adults saying they would visit an arcade on a trip to the seaside a figure that rises to 91 percent for 24-34-year-olds.

In terms of providing accessible entertainment 55 percent say that arcades offer great value for money, making them the UK’s most affordable family day out. As a result, 84 percent confirmed they have enjoyed arcades with multiple generations of their family.

The importance of contributions to local economies featured highly in the research paper with 7 in 10 stating that arcades play a key role in regenerating seaside towns, a figure that rises to 85 percent of 18-24-year-olds.

Reflecting on the research findings Joseph Cullis, President of UK trade association, Bacta said: “Britain’s seaside arcades are a vital element of our proud tourism industry, a modern cultural icon, and have been a fun family activity for more than a century.

“It’s brilliant but not surprising to see young people are embracing them with all the enthusiasm of their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents before them.

“At Bacta, we’re fighting to protect our seaside arcades from the threats of rising costs and from those who want to tax them out of existence. We hope that local councillors, MPs and the Treasury will heed the wants and needs of the British people and protect these vital institutions.”

Elliot Ball, who co-owns and runs Clacton Pier with his brother Billy, said other attractions would be at risk if arcades were taxed even more.

“I’m the fifth generation of my family – on both sides – involved in amusement arcades so this is a labour of love” he stated.

“But the threat from the government to raise gambling tax would put at risk a traditional family day out to the seaside. Trips here have been making memories for generations, and it’s great that younger people are finding the same safe, harmless fun on the pier that has been raising a smile and lighting up eyes for years and years.

“We’ve bounced back from the pandemic and the rise of staycations helps, but many of Britain’s most beloved seaside attractions will be put at high risk if gambling taxes rise.”
