OddsMatrix boosts sportsbook offering with US micro-markets nVenue partnership
OddsMatrix, EveryMatrix’s tier-1 sportsbook platform and odds feeds service, has agreed terms with US micro-markets provider nVenue in a mutually beneficial product partnership.
OddsMatrix will integrate nVenue’s leading micro-markets products enabling its customers to access the US market’s most popular sports including American football, basketball, baseball, ice hockey and motorsport.
As part of the agreement, nVenue will integrate OddsMatrix’s Fast Markets into its data aggregation platform, with a focus on soccer, and distribute them to its well-established customers, including major operator brands and suppliers in the US and internationally.

Fast Markets supply leading sportsbooks with a wide range of in-game, time-driven soccer betting options, providing brands with a further revenue stream across a range of top leagues.
Micro betting, popular in the regulated US sports betting market, is a high-frequency, low-price sports betting product. It is increasingly seen as a key driver to boosting in-play wagering across several sports, creating new opportunities for operators to differentiate, while attracting a new generation of customers who favour instant entertainment, both increasing player engagement and casual player spend.
Tor Skeie, CEO, OddsMatrix, said: “Micro betting is one of the fastest growing betting formats in North America so we’re delighted to be able to provide our customers with access to one of the most innovative products available via nVenue.
“Combining both technologies and offering our fast soccer markets to their customers was a no-brainer. We’ve aligned perfectly with the nVenue team ever since we began partnership discussions and we’re looking forward to seeing the results.”
Kelly Pracht, CEO and Co-Founder of nVenue, said: “Partnering with EveryMatrix represents a key company milestone for nVenue as we expand the global reach of our micro-betting technology.
“EveryMatrix’s platform allows us to seamlessly integrate live, in-play betting opportunities, including micro-markets, into a vast international network of operators. This collaboration enables us to meet the evolving needs of bettors while delivering a new menu of well-timed, expertly priced live betting markets to customers around the world.”
