ULIS and UEFA Sign Agreement to Strengthen Joint Efforts to Combat Match-fixing
The United Lotteries for Integrity in Sports (ULIS) signed an agreement with the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), in which both organisations agree to enhance the efficiency of their respective work in relation to information sharing and monitoring of betting patterns. They reached mutual understanding for the development of measures to prevent, deter and identify irregular and suspicious betting behaviour which could be indicative of match-fixing in football.
The Agreement applies to football matches and competitions organised by UEFA, as well as first and second division football competitions organised by UEFA’s 55 member associations. It sets out the framework for cooperation, in the interests of protecting and maintaining the integrity of football, and defines the principles, roles, procedures and commitments that both organisations adhere to.
“A global effort is required to tackle the many and complex issues surrounding sports competition manipulations. This agreement is another important step to strengthen efforts to maintain sports integrity, which affects the entire sports and sports betting ecosystem and its many stakeholders, and we look forward to this enhanced collaboration with UEFA,” said Luca Esposito, General Secretary of ULIS.
ULIS will provide complimentary active and prioritized monitoring, assessment, reporting and sharing of any unusual and suspicious betting patterns for any of the above-mentioned games, and assist UEFA with any specific information requests.
“UEFA greatly values ULIS operational support in the fight against match-fixing in European football. Our collaboration with the lottery sector has been fruitful for many years already, and I am certain that this new agreement will contribute to developing further synergies and strengthening our cooperation to protect the integrity of football,” said Angelo Rigopoulos, UEFA Managing Director of Integrity and Regulatory.

Bronze card has been claimed during the group stage; silver and gold prizes remain available until 31 July.
Tonybet said it has paid out its first major prize in its World Cup Card Collection campaign for Canadian customers (excluding Ontario), after a player secured the promotion’s bronze card worth $15,000 CAD.
The operator said the World Cup Card Collection includes 51 cards to collect during the tournament: 48 digital cards tied to participating World Cup nations, plus three unique cards—gold, silver and bronze—linked to a $150,000 CAD total prize fund.
According to Tonybet, the bronze card has been available through the World Cup’s group stage and has now been claimed. The silver card is available during the knockout rounds up to the quarter-finals, while the gold card is held back for the closing semi-finals and final.
Tonybet Head of Product Kiryl Liudvikevich said: “With Canada co-hosting the World Cup for the first time, the tournament has felt closer to home than ever before for Canadians, and it has already delivered a moment most supporters could only dream about with the national team advancing to the knockout stages.
“For one lucky Canada supporter, it has now produced another story that will be worth retelling long after the final whistle has gone – with our lucky winner among the first Tonybet customers to win one of the unique cards in our World Cup Card Collection, taking home a cool $15,000 for managing to get his hands on bronze. Who will end up with silver and gold?”
Tonybet said the same three unique cards are also in circulation across its other markets, with varying outcomes so far. The World Cup Card Collection campaign runs until 31 July, with a $150,000 CAD prize pool for Canada and separate prize pools in other markets.
