Future Anthem sets new standard for sportsbook personalisation with launch of real-time AI sports product
Future Anthem, the pioneering AI and data science powerhouse, has launched its personalisation product, Amplifier AI, for sports, extending its market-leading capabilities in gambling to the sports betting industry.
This new suite of sports features will deliver a step change in player engagement, creating unique and customised sports betting experiences that engage in real-time.
Anthem has invested heavily in its sports product following successful Series A funding, building a team with hires from leading sportsbook operators including William Hill, Betfair, Betway, and Wynnbet.
“With the official launch of Amplifier AI for sports, Future Anthem is setting a new standard of personalisation for sports operators – and fast,” said Chief Product Officer Ian Tibot.
“The variety of different behavioural styles creates a unique problem for sports operators. Providing a tailored solution for every player, while taking into account the speed and dynamism with which the sports betting experience changes has forced the industry to offer players a one-size-fits-all experience that is homogenous from operator to operator.
“With Amplifier AI, we’ve worked relentlessly to create a data and AI-powered product that personalises every step of the player journey in real-time.”
Amplifier AI’s ability to personalise in real-time is enabled by its use of cutting-edge AI technologies that can process the unprecedented scale and speed of data in the sports betting industry. It is capable of sending millions of personalised data points to players with seamless data integration.
Operators utilising Amplifier AI’s sports modules will be able to personalise the entire betting experience from homepage to bet slip. It generates live audiences for innovative and personalised marketing campaigns, uses AI to optimise promotions, and prevents churn and identifies risky behaviours in real-time.
Initial implementations have generated positive player impacts with Future Anthem. Results include predicting churn 99% quicker than traditional approaches, delivering a near 50% email open rate for 1-to-1 marketing communications and creating personalised audiences that increase app open rates by 200%.
Amplifier AI is set to transform the way operators approach the player experience, allowing them to drive highly measurable results-driven interactions in real time, setting a new standard of personalisation for the industry.

2026 FIFA World Cup
Sportradar and Aireal Announce Strategic Partnership
Sportradar AG, the global sports technology company, and aireal, the business transforming broadcast and digital audio into programmatically tradable media, announced a strategic partnership to elevate how brands advertise around sports content – at a time when relevance, context and timing matter more than ever.
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching and advertisers competing in what has become the “relevance economy”, the partnership enables brands to use broadcast radio as a modern channel to reach sports fans with contextually aligned messaging placed into ad breaks close to key sports moments.
Aireal’s technology identifies when broadcast or digital audio programming features sports content by recognizing context like commentary, match previews and sports news. The technology makes FM, DAB+ and streaming audio inventories addressable based on context, unlocking highly targeted and sports-relevant advertising inventory for Sportradar’s demand- side platform to purchase on behalf of clients.
Sportradar adds “sports moments” signals such as goals, momentum changes and penalties allowing advertising into upcoming blocks through aireal’s sell-side platform and real-time insertion tech. Sportradar’s GenAI-enhanced creative intelligence generates audio scripts provided by team narratives, tournament dynamics or fan sentiment. This automation enables brands to align with emotional instances fans care about, without interrupting live broadcasts.
The agreement further boosts Sportradar’s advertising capabilities to engage sports fans on behalf of clients and builds on its end-to-end solution already featuring a proprietary demand-side platform, programmatic ads including digital out of home, display, video and audio such as podcasts. The company also offers paid social and paid search as acquisition tools and a range of retention products.
Ralf Ollig, Sportradar’s VP of Product Marketing and Advertising Services, said: “Audio is critical in any sports-focused advertising campaign as brands need scalable channels that keep them connected to sports moments throughout the day. We know that radio is a primary channel for match-day build-up, commentary, travel-time listening and fan gatherings and radio consumption surges during major sports cycles such as the FIFA World Cup, Euros, Bundesliga, winter sports and cycling. Our partnership with aireal turns broadcast radio into a digitally activated, programmatic channel and is the next evolution in our sporting moments approach to campaign planning and execution.”
Markus Adomeit, aireal MD, said: “We’re bringing automation and contextual intelligence to one of the most important media channels. Working with Sportradar allows advertisers to align their audio campaigns with sports programming and sports signals in a way that’s scalable and relevance driven.
“Broadcast radio remains one of the strongest mass-reach media channels worldwide. Radio has high trust levels and is repeatedly ranked as one of the most credible advertising channels, meaning this partnership enables advertisers to reach millions of listeners across international markets with unparalleled brand safety.”

$SNACK token
Crypto Snack Unveils Five-Pillar Ecosystem Spanning Sports, RWA Tokenisation, iGaming, Consumer Rewards and Payments
Crypto Snack, the blockchain-based crypto infrastructure company behind the $SNACK token, has announced the full scope of its multi-vertical ecosystem — spanning a Premier League football partnership, institutional-grade real-world asset (RWA) tokenisation, licensed iGaming, a live consumer rewards platform and an integrated crypto wallet and payments app.
The announcement marks a strategic repositioning for the project, which has spent the past 18 months building infrastructure, securing partnerships and obtaining licences ahead of a coordinated 2026 launch across all five verticals.
“Most crypto projects pick one lane. We’ve built five — and every single one generates real revenue for the token. This isn’t a roadmap built on promises. The partnerships are signed, the licences are secured, and the technology is built. 2026 is about execution,” Stuart Morrison, CEO and Founder of Crypto Snack.
Premier League Partnership
Crypto Snack has secured a partnership with an English Premier League football club, making it the first project to process cryptocurrency payments for a PL club. The integration covers matchday ticket purchases, merchandise sales, LED stadium advertising, VIP hospitality packages, and Ticketmaster-integrated ticketing — with $SNACK enabled as a direct payment method.
The club name remains under embargo ahead of a formal joint announcement in the coming weeks.
Real-World Asset Tokenisation
Crypto Snack facilitated and represents the Alkemya Metacore Security Token Offering (STO), which is listing on a regulated tokenised securities exchange. The STO comprises 800 million tokens, with Crypto Snack holding a 3% allocation. Proceeds are received in USDT, with remaining tokens generating ongoing cash distributions.
The company is actively tokenising UK real estate, commodities, and securities at institutional scale, with projects valued at up to $1.5 billion.
Licensed iGaming
Snack Casino and Snack Bet — a fully licensed online casino and sportsbook — are scheduled to launch in 2026, operated by a strategic iGaming partner under a licensed agreement to use the Crypto Snack brand. All bonuses, rewards and referral incentives will be distributed exclusively in $SNACK tokens, creating a recurring demand mechanism for the token independent of speculative trading.
Live Consumer Rewards
Snack Rewards is already live in the US through a partnership with Affina Loyalty, offering cashback paid in $SNACK tokens across more than 2000 brands including Apple, Nike, IKEA and Uber. The merchant-funded model means brands fund the cashback directly, with Crypto Snack earning a 1% commission on every transaction. UK and European expansion is scheduled for Q3 2026.
Snack App and Wallet
The Snack App will serve as the central gateway to the entire ecosystem, featuring a built-in crypto wallet with virtual debit cards, buy/sell/trade functionality and unified access to all rewards and loyalty programmes. The app is designed for mainstream adoption, removing the technical barriers that typically prevent non-crypto users from entering the space.
