Playtech Sports has a dedicated in-house trading team who provide 24/7 bet monitoring, 365 days a year.

This service means that operators can rest assured in the knowledge that their money is safe from suspicious betting activities and fraud.

Playtech’s Risk Management service automatically divides markets and sports into different tiers dependent on their risk level, with each tier assigned a stake limit. When this limit is reached, traders will be alerted and the market automatically suspended until it has once again stabilised.

Operators can define their own limits and make exceptions for VIPs, plus popular markets such as the Premier League or Champions League. Our trading team can also override settlements and compile regular customer-specific risk reports for partners.

Key Facts

  • 24/7, 365 days a year dedicated coverage
  • Automated alerts in the event of suspicious activity or fraud
  • Odds automatically fluctuate and update based on market activity and betting trends
  • Ability to override settlements and compile customer-specific risk reports
  • Operators can use standard Playtech Sports limits or determine their own

 

We source content from market-leading feed providers with a variety of pricing structures. Operators can decide which markets they want to display and which set of prices to offer, tailoring the product effectively to the market demands of each territory.

Smart Pricing allows operators to modify existing odds to suit individual requirements via the innovative centralised Trading Cockpit to provide bespoke odds catering for specific markets and demographics; for example, better odds in highly competitive regions.

Key Facts

Playtech’s efficient settlement method allows operators to combine information from various feeds,  settling pre-match bets as soon as the result is available in the live feed. This advantage can encourage cash recycling and reinvestment of winnings. Instant settlement is available for all core markets of Playtech’s pre-match football offer.

The Integration Service provides a clear, efficient interface for the integration of any third-party solution into our back-end systems. Additionally, many bookmakers have successfully integrated their customer loyalty card schemes into our system, including Paddy Power’s Cash Card and the Coral Connect Card.
