Many people have bet money on a college sports game or professional football game at some point. The NCAA March Madness basketball tournament is another popular event for betting.

But most people do not know how to bet the savvy way. They lack knowledge about what traits to look for in certain online bookmakers and which websites or platforms offer the best bonuses for the upcoming NFL season.

Fortunately, starting this week, a user-friendly new sports betting program is launching on platforms across the internet.

The How To Bet video podcast will hit the air on Wednesday, September 1, 2021. The show, which will broadcast weekly on Thursdays following the launch episode, features two of the most well-known multi-media personalities in the Tri-state area: Daryl Fein and Sean Miller. It is sponsored by the How To Bet website, which will run articles by Miller concurrent with the weekly shows: one for each Thursday night, Sunday night, and Monday night contest, and another showcasing the odds for all games that week.

Fein has been the long-time voice of Rider University basketball and has served as the co-host of the Feinline on ESPN Radio for nearly two years. He is excited to work on the show and help build it up from the ground.

“I am really excited about the show,” Fein said. “We have a great blend of characters. We are going to have guests, we are going to do giveaways, it is going to be exciting. I am really looking forward to it, and I cannot wait to get started.”

Miller, sometimes referred to as “The Genius” on the program, has been with NJ Advance Media for nearly a decade, and is a major presence on prominent gambling websites. He also has experience in gambling podcasts and television programs, and brings a wealth of knowledge about the many sports he has covered over the years to the show.

The show can be seen and heard in plenty of different places, including Apple, Breaker, Castbox, Google Podcasts, Overcast, PocketCast, Radio Public, Spotify, and Stitcher. All video podcasts will be uploaded to YouTube, as well, on the How To Bet channel.

It can also be heard on 107.7 FM The Bronc (Rider University) and streamed on the radio station website. The station, run by well-known radio personality and General Manager John Mozes, was recently nominated for a 2021 Marconi Award for Best College Radio Station of the Year. Mozes and his student employees at the station, including Producer/Director Tiffany Hartman and Producer Trey Wright, will play an integral part in the show each week.

“We are thrilled to be working with the How to Bet podcasting team on this exciting audio and video project,” Mozes said. “How To Bet will provide the students of 107.7 The Bronc with a truly global engaged-learning experience and one of the most comprehensive real-world media opportunities available at Rider University.”

Wealthsimple announced the release of Wealthsimple Predict, providing retail investors the ability to trade event contracts on Kalshi. The standalone application is scheduled to launch this summer. Through the app, users will have access to approximately 4000 Kalshi event-based contracts in categories Wealthsimple is authorized to offer in the Canadian market, specifically climate, financial markets, and economic indicators.

“Prediction markets are the fastest-growing segment of global financial markets, letting traders turn an opinion into a position on the factors that shape our world – where inflation is headed, what happens to rates, or how the year unfolds. Until now, Canadians have had limited access. Wealthsimple Predict gives Canadians a clean, well-designed way to access these markets, with education and guardrails built in from day one,” said Brett Huneycutt, co-founder and Chief Product Officer, Wealthsimple.

“Kalshi was founded on a simple belief: views on the future should have markets, and those markets should be available to everyone. That’s why we’re partnering with Wealthsimple, Canada’s leading financial innovator – to give everyday investors in Canada access to fair, secure, and regulated prediction markets,” said Alex Cuoci, Kalshi.

In March, the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) authorized Wealthsimple to offer event and forecast contract trading, also known as prediction markets. These contracts are regulated as futures contracts (derivatives). The approval covers contracts with a 30-day settlement period or longer, within the categories of economic indicators, financial markets, and climate. Wealthsimple is the second investment dealer to receive regulatory approval from CIRO for prediction markets.

To access trading through Wealthsimple Predict, new clients must complete a standard Know Your Client (KYC) process. Education is built into every stage of the experience, including a guided orientation of a client’s first trade. The app also shows users key disclosures and definitions, including trading risk reminders, contract resolution information, notices that positions can be sold at any time, and liquidity risk warnings on lower-activity markets. Wealthsimple Predict will only be available to Canadian residents.

Kalshi is authorized to operate in the US as an event contracts exchange, with federal authority from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), the regulatory authority for the U.S. derivatives market. Prediction markets follow the same regulatory framework applied to other financial assets traded in the US, such as equities, bonds, and traditional derivatives, with clear rules for price formation, settlement, and governance.

MediaTroopers said it is preparing to launch in Alberta’s regulated gaming market on July 13, as Canada’s next regulated commercial gaming market opens.

The digital marketing and customer acquisition firm said it plans to enter Alberta alongside eight “premium operator” clients, which it said are also preparing for their own market entries. MediaTroopers did not name the operators.

The company said its Alberta offering will mirror its work in Ontario, including localized acquisition strategies, compliance-focused marketing, regional player education, and market-tailored performance campaigns.

MediaTroopers also said it has seen “strong interest” from Alberta players through pre-registration activity, without providing figures.

“Alberta represents an exciting next step for regulated iGaming in Canada, and Media Troopers is ready to support operators from day one,” said Shmulik Segal, CEO of Media Troopers. “Our experience in Ontario has given us a strong understanding of what it takes to enter a new Canadian market successfully, from compliance and localization to scalable player acquisition. With eight of our premium clients already preparing for launch and early pre-registration traction underway, we see Alberta as a market with tremendous potential.”
