Sporting Risk supplies player props and BetBuilder tools to BOYLE Sports
Deal covers pre-match and in-play football markets, including in-play multis and micromarkets across more than 150 competitions.
Sporting Risk has partnered with BOYLE Sports to integrate its Player Props, Pre-canned BetBuilder, and Next-Gen player-centric in-play BetBuilder into the operator’s sportsbook.
The companies said the rollout will increase player market coverage and combinability for BOYLE Sports in the UK and Ireland, with support for player markets across more than 150 global competitions.
According to the announcement, the integration also includes in-play multis and micromarkets aimed at expanding real-time betting options tied to player-driven markets.
Andy Phillips, SportingRisk.com CBDO, said: “It’s great to see us strengthen our position in the UK market via a partnership with a high street brand who have a lot of operational expertise and are driving forward with a great online product. The UK is the most competitive football Betbuilder market and we are helping operators here to surpass the very best products across all the objective metrics we can measure.”
David Burgin, Trading Director at BOYLE Sports, added: “Our focus at BOYLE Sports is on delivering a market-leading experience and this partnership with Sporting Risk significantly enhances our football offering. The depth of player markets, combinability and in-play capabilities will offer more engaging opportunities, and we’re excited to bring these innovations to our customers as we continue to improve the quality and breadth of our sportsbook.”

21.com launches online casino and sportsbook led by ex-BetVictor CEO Michael Carlton
21.com has launched as an online casino and sportsbook, naming industry veteran Michael Carlton as Founder & CEO, the company said on 16 June 2026.
The operator said it is targeting a range of global jurisdictions and plans to differentiate through a “modern technology stack” and “AI-centric operations.” It did not disclose target markets, licensing status, launch territories, or product partners.
Carlton previously served 13 years at EY as a Chartered Accountant before entering gaming in 1997, according to the company. He later spent 17 years as CEO of BetVictor and has since invested in betting and gaming companies.
Carlton said 21.com is being built without legacy platform constraints. “Having started in the gaming industry prior to the launch of the internet and then having the privilege of being involved as the industry evolved and adapted to the opportunities, there is now a further revolution occurring with the power created by embracing AI helping us to move faster and tailor personalised experience to the player.
“One of 21.com’s greatest strengths is that it is being developed for the current market, rather than an after-thought adaptation of an existing one. Many operators have been around for a long time and continue to be defined by legacy platforms and pre-crypto payment customer journeys that existed long before the modern technical tools that exist now became a reality. 21.com has embraced AI to deliver unparalleled customer experiences.
“With a team of industry leading experts with the motivation and ability to achieve our goals but without any legacy systems, 21.com is able to take advantage of new technologies to become a market leader in the gaming industry”.
The company also set aggressive commercial targets. “21.com will be one of the top three operators in every market it operates and in the world within two years,” Carlton said.
