Data-driven product brings a new level of reality and in-play pricing to the in-demand virtual world

RPM Gaming, an emerging force in online and retail betting and gaming, has launched CricketSim, a new simulated cricket product that delivers a best-in-breed experience for operators and their players struggling to find realistic, engaging alternatives during the sporting shutdown.

This innovative offering fuses the latest algorithms with a deep database of real-world cricket stats to create the most authentic and accurate representation of live-traded cricket available. The sport’s favourite formats, including Test, ODI and T20, are all featured, while every match is based on actual teams and players. Operators can then press these games into the service of varying schedules and timeframes across a glaring sportsbook void.

Partners now can offer these industry-leading API data solutions – designed for pricing precision, comprehensive coverage and ease of integration – both pre-game and in-game.

This virtual product comes into its own in the in-play domain, where a host of short-form betting opportunities (e.g. over-by-over runs and next man out), coupled to informative ball-by-ball text commentary and live scoreboards, help recreate the feel and excitement of engaging with a real cricket match, without the onerous demands of risk management.

CricketSim’s advanced statistical modelling drives a realistic-yet-random ball-by-ball betting experience and is the first virtual offering to market from RPM Data, the bespoke pricing and data-feeds wing of RPM Gaming, which provides the fastest feeds and lowest-latency data on the market, allowing its partners to stay ahead of the game.

Richard Thorp, Director of RPM Gaming, said: “As most operators pivot their attention to developing vertical-spread during these unparalleled times, virtual sports are emerging as a go-to product for plugging the gaps after this live sports suspension which has followed the outbreak of COVID-19.

“Historically, virtuals have already surprised many with their ability to prize double-digit market share away from real sports betting. So, this trend will naturally extend in the current climate where their convenience is unmatched. In-play was the missing piece in that virtual jigsaw, but now CricketSim can fill the void with accurate in-play odds and innovative content that affords fans the chance to still enjoy their favourite sport in a familiar live betting environment.

“RPM Data was set up to provide zero-latency cricket trading feeds on the biggest range of matches and markets to serve the voracious appetite for live cricket betting across the planet. While we can’t wait to roll out this unique feed when the real cricket action resumes, CricketSim was a logical stepping-stone product that we could create in the meantime for all our interested partners. It showcases our precise pricing ball-by-ball, and elevates in the in-play UX on virtuals too.”

DATA.BET, a leading sportsbook technology provider, is set to participate in SiGMA South America 2026, one of the most significant gaming industry events in Latin America.

The event will take place from April 6–9, 2026 in São Paulo, bringing together major players from the global betting and casino sectors.

At stand E140, DATA.BET will present its comprehensive sportsbook platform along with its advanced esports betting solutions, targeting operators across Latin America who are seeking scalable, high-performance betting products.

Expanding Presence in Latin America

Latin America continues to emerge as one of the fastest-growing regions for online sports betting and iGaming. Countries across the region are moving toward regulated frameworks, creating significant opportunities for sportsbook providers and technology companies.

DATA.BET’s presence at SiGMA South America highlights the company’s focus on supporting operators entering regulated markets, particularly in Brazil, where demand for advanced sportsbook infrastructure is rapidly increasing.

The company aims to demonstrate how its solutions can help operators integrate modern sportsbook technology quickly and efficiently while maintaining regulatory compliance.

Brazilian Certification Strengthens Market Entry

One of the key advantages DATA.BET brings to the Latin American market is its Brazilian GLI certification, obtained last year. This certification confirms that the platform meets recognized regulatory and technical standards required for operation in Brazil’s developing betting ecosystem.

Certification allows operators using DATA.BET’s solutions to streamline their market entry process. By integrating certified technology, betting companies can reduce the time required for regulatory approvals and technical validation.

This capability positions DATA.BET as a strategic partner for operators looking to establish or expand their presence in Brazil’s regulated sports betting market.

Advanced Sportsbook and Integration Capabilities

During the exhibition, DATA.BET will showcase the latest version of its complete sportsbook solution, which has recently undergone a significant redesign.

The platform includes advanced integration capabilities that allow operators to seamlessly incorporate sportsbook functionality into their existing online casino or betting platforms. This flexibility ensures that operators can deploy the solution efficiently while maintaining full control over branding and user experience.

By offering scalable technology and seamless integrations, DATA.BET aims to help operators maximize performance and revenue potential.

Enhanced Statistical Widgets for Deeper Insights

A major highlight of the company’s presentation will be the newly updated Statistical Widgets, designed to enhance user engagement and provide bettors with deeper insights into matches and competitions.

The widgets include several data-rich features such as:

Head-to-Head comparisons
Game Statistics
Team Statistics
Timeline Widget for esports events

These tools are designed to enrich the betting experience by providing real-time information that helps players make more informed decisions.

Enhanced data visualization has become an increasingly important component of modern sportsbook platforms, as bettors expect access to detailed statistics and analytics.

Expanded Coverage of Global and Regional Sports

DATA.BET’s sportsbook platform offers extensive coverage across a wide range of sporting events, including both global tournaments and regional competitions that are particularly popular among Latin American audiences.

Among the leagues featured in the platform are:

Brazil’s Campeonato Brasileiro Série A
Argentina’s Liga Profesional de Fútbol
Colombia’s Categoría Primera A

This regional focus ensures that operators can deliver localized content tailored to the preferences of Latin American bettors.

The platform also supports betting on major international tournaments, including preparations for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup, which is expected to generate massive global betting activity.

Bet Builder Across Sports and Esports

Another key feature showcased at the event will be DATA.BET’s Bet Builder, which enables players to combine multiple betting selections within a single wager.

This functionality is available for both traditional sports and esports competitions, allowing bettors to create customized bets based on their predictions for different match events.

Bet Builder functionality has become a popular feature among sportsbook users because it increases engagement and provides additional betting flexibility.

Strong Focus on Esports Betting

Esports continues to experience rapid growth worldwide, particularly among younger audiences. Brazil and the broader Latin American region have developed strong esports communities, making this vertical a key focus for sportsbook providers.

DATA.BET has positioned itself as a long-standing leader in esports betting by offering extensive tournament coverage and specialized tools designed for esports audiences.

According to Otto Bonning, Head of Sales at DATA.BET, the company sees strong demand for esports betting products in Brazil and aims to support operators with comprehensive market coverage, including local competitions.

Supporting Operators Through Technology

DATA.BET continues to invest heavily in technological innovation to ensure its sportsbook platform remains reliable, scalable, and adaptable to regulated environments.

The company’s ongoing development efforts focus on:

Improving platform stability
Enhancing integration capabilities
Expanding market coverage
Supporting regulatory compliance

These improvements are designed to help operators maximize revenue opportunities while delivering a seamless betting experience to players.

Looking Ahead to SiGMA South America 2026

As one of the most influential iGaming gatherings in the region, SiGMA South America provides a valuable platform for industry stakeholders to explore new technologies, form partnerships, and discuss the future of regulated gaming markets.

DATA.BET’s participation underscores its commitment to strengthening relationships with Latin American operators and expanding its presence in one of the most dynamic betting markets in the world.
