SCCG Management Announces Extension and Expansion of Strategic Partnership with SnapOdds
SCCG Management, a leading consultancy specializing in the sports betting and gaming industries, announced the extension and significant expansion of its strategic partnership with SnapOdds, the revolutionary sports betting technology product from Snapscreen Inc. This expansion marks a pivotal shift toward a consumer-facing (B2C) strategy, leveraging SnapOdds’ unique TV and streaming content recognition software.
SnapOdds, often referred to as the “Shazam for Sports Betting,” has transformed the way users engage with live sporting events on TV and streaming. Users snap live TV events on their mobile phone, find event-related results and buy or bet. This seamless integration of technology and user experience positions SnapOdds as a frontrunner in the sports betting industry.
As part of this strategic pivot, SCCG Management and SnapOdds are focusing on delivering a B2C app, mobile web and social media presence. The transition towards a B2C approach is underpinned by the anticipated viral spread of the SnapOdds app.
This virality and proven stickiness not only ensures a cost-effective strategy for reaching and retaining new users but also presents a unique opportunity for advertisers and sponsors. By serving game related advertising and sponsorship to highly engaged users at the right time within the app, mobile web and social media presence, SCCG Management and SnapOdds are set to generate substantial cost reduction in player acquisition cost for sports books and other sports related offers like e-commerce.
Stephen Crystal, Founder and CEO of SCCG Management, said: “Our enhanced collaboration with SnapOdds underscores our commitment to innovation and excellence in the sports betting industry. The shift towards a B2C model opens up unprecedented opportunities for growth, user engagement, and revenue generation. We are excited to pioneer this space, delivering unparalleled experiences for sports fans and creating significant value for our advertisers and sponsors.”
Thomas Willomitzer, Founder and CEO of Snapscreen, said: “Offering Shazam for TV as an app was always on the agenda. The overwhelmingly positive feedback of end users on the one side and the huge monetization opportunity to deliver engaged users at the right time to lower the CAC for betting and e-commerce drives our B2C strategy. We naturally continue to serve and expand our loyal B2B customer base. We are a team of experts in taking offline media interactive. First Radio when I co-founded Last.FM and now TV.”
The strategic expansion of the SCCG Management and SnapOdds partnership is a testament to their commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology to redefine the sports betting landscape. As they embark on this new chapter, the focus will remain on delivering exceptional value to users and stakeholders alike.

Altenar rolls out World Cup Lobby event hub for sportsbook operators
Altenar has launched a dedicated World Cup Lobby designed to help sportsbook operators package World Cup content in a single event hub during this summer’s tournament.
The company said the lobby is built for high-traffic periods, with a curated destination where operators can surface relevant markets, statistics, promotions and betting opportunities in one place. Altenar pointed to a “record 104 matches” across 16 cities as the context for simplifying tournament discovery and navigation.
The World Cup Lobby combines Altenar’s sportsbook with widgets and navigation built for major tournaments. Altenar said interactive team and player carousels surface BetCards, markets and promotions via swipeable feeds, with team and player pages providing access to statistics and related betting opportunities.
Other features include integrated standings, knockout trees and outright markets, aiming to keep users moving between matches, teams, players and selections without switching across multiple pages. Altenar said operators can localise the lobby by prioritising teams, competitions and markets for regional audiences, and use player behaviour to surface personalised recommendations.
Nikos Zygouris, Head of Sportsbook Product at Altenar, said: “Major tournaments such as this year’s World Cup create huge engagement and our goal with the new lobby is to build an environment where players can explore everything around the competition in one place.
“The World Cup Lobby brings together markets, statistics, teams and personalised recommendations into a single experience, helping operators to deliver a more intuitive and engaging sportsbook during the biggest moments in the sporting calendar.”
