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.”

Atlaslive Integrates Altenar Sportsbook to Expand Platform Capabilities for Operators

The B2B iGaming platform provider adds an award-winning sportsbook solution to its technology ecosystem, giving operators more flexibility ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Atlaslive announces the integration of Altenar’s fully managed sportsbook into its platform ecosystem. The partnership brings one of the industry’s most established sportsbook providers into Atlaslive’s technology stack, expanding the range of sportsbook configurations available to operators across the LATAM region.

Altenar is an award-winning sportsbook provider operating across more than 50 regulated jurisdictions, with licences from the UKGC, MGA, AGCO, and other major regulators. Most recently, the company was named Best Online Sportsbook Provider at the SiGMA South America Awards 2026 in São Paulo—building on its Sportsbook Supplier of the Year recognition at the SBC Awards Latinoamérica 2024.

The integration gives Atlaslive powered operators the option to deploy Altenar’s sportsbook technology alongside Atlaslive’s existing platform infrastructure. Operators can select the sportsbook configuration that best matches their market positioning, regulatory requirements, and player acquisition strategy, rather than being limited to a single-stack approach.

The timing is deliberate. With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching, demand for high-performance, scalable sportsbook solutions is set to peak. For operators, the tournament window is one of the highest-traffic periods in the sports betting cycle, and the ability to choose a battle-tested sportsbook within a familiar platform environment reduces both technical risk and time to market.

“Giving operators real choice in how they build their sportsbook is a competitive advantage—for them and for us. Altenar’s track record across regulated markets and their depth in risk management and trading make them the right partner to start with,” said Volodymyr Taftai, Country Director for Brazil, Atlaslive. “We’re expanding our platform into a multi-sportsbook ecosystem because that’s what operators in today’s market need: flexibility without compromise on quality.”

Frederico Caputi, Senior Sales Manager  at Altenar, added: “We are pleased to partner with Atlaslive to bring our sportsbook technology to their operator network. This integration allows us to reach new markets through a platform built for scale, while giving operators access to our fully managed sportsbook product, including live betting, risk management, and a deep sports content offering.”

Atlaslive provides a proprietary iGaming platform built to optimize the operations of sportsbook and casino businesses. The company is built around long-term operator partnerships, product-led growth, and full-stack platform delivery.

Media Troopers, the leading digital and customer acquisition group, has announced it will enter Peru’s regulated market to offer its sports betting and prediction market services ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will be played from 11 June to 19 July across the US, Canada, and Mexico, is a defining moment for the global online wagering industry, and one that Media Troopers aims to help operators capitalize on.

Peru is one of LatAm’s newest regulated markets, launching in 2024.

It’s home to more than 60 online operators, with its gaming regulator having granted 120 licenses since the launch.

In 2024, Peru’s regulated market was valued at $2.7 billion, with analysts expecting projected growth to reach $7.6 billion by 2033.

Media Troopers CEO Shmulik Segal says that Peru’s current regulated market represents the early stages of regulated sports betting in the US, noting that it currently boasts strong consumer demand and rapid operator expansion.

“Media Troopers is bringing mature-market expertise into Peru at precisely the moment the market is ready to scale,” Segal said.

By entering Peru, Media Troopers can offer its wide range of marketing and acquisition tools to operators in the region.

That includes providing operators with soccer-focused marketing channels, access to a variety of existing publishers and affiliates, and localized features that help operators scale their platforms to reach a more tailored audience, increase engagement, and build a trusting brand presence in the area.

Media Troopers has positioned itself as the gateway between exporting North American betting infrastructure into new, emerging markets, as it prepares for the next evolution of online wagering.

MediaTroopers was founded in 2019 with the vision of providing legal, safe, and responsible gambling alternatives to sports bettors and casino players.

Since then, the company has grown to operate in over 40 jurisdictions across North America.

MediaTroopers leverages decades of digital marketing experience, extensive in-house media buying knowledge, mobile advertising expertise, a robust technical infrastructure, and an extensive network of in-house and affiliated publishers to acquire paying customers for the world’s top gambling operators, including BetMGM, Caesars, DraftKings, FanDuel, BetRivers and more.
