Stats Perform first to support the IBIA data standards process
Stats Perform, the SportsTech leader in data and AI technology, pledges full support of yesterday’s announcement by the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA) issuing a set of minimum standards governing the procedures for the collection of sporting event data for betting.
Stats Perform today announced it would immediately apply to the IBIA’s independent audit process led by eCogra to achieve the Data Standards Kitemark and demonstrate that it meets and goes beyond those standards in its betting data operations. As an Affiliate Member of the IBIA and the premium supplier of betting and performance data to the sports and betting industries, Stats Perform has consistently advocated for best practice standards when it comes to the event data that drives betting markets.
The announcements follow the launch of a project by the IBIA in May to create a set of standards to help protect the integrity of sport, its data, and the betting markets powered by that data. As the first private entity to endorse the project, Stats Perform looks forward to continuing to work collaboratively with the IBIA and its members to promote the minimum standards and to lead the way in the quality and integrity of its own data supply chain.
Andrew Ashenden, Chief Betting Officer at Stats Perform, said: “Implemented and monitored effectively, a global set of standards would contribute positively across the sports and betting industries from an integrity perspective. At Stats Perform, we have a longstanding programme of investment in maintaining the strongest quality assurance and integrity processes across our data supply chain. We look forward to working with the IBIA on best practices going forward and to demonstrate through the independent audit process how Stats Perform is going the extra mile to ensure the reliability and credibility of its data.”
Jake Marsh, Global Head of Integrity at Stats Perform, said: “Data is an incredibly important part of the sports integrity ecosystem. At Stats Perform robust data quality and integrity is the fundamental priority and this is reflected in the investment in our data supply chain and in our consistent public advocacy for best practice standards in this sector. Our approach to data incorporates close collaboration with the sports and betting industries and we look forward to working with the IBIA and other stakeholders on best practices to help protect the future of integrity in sport and betting.”

Inside GEO: Slovenia As the Next Emerging Goldmine
Slovenia is definitely one of the most promising GEOs for the iGaming niche.
That is why the N1 Partners team has collected insights that will help to work more accurately with the audience, increase ROI and build effective advertising campaigns for the GEO.
Let’s look at the big picture to understand the potential of the region better. Slovenia is a small country in Central Europe with a population of about 2.1 million people and its capital in Ljubljana. The official language is Slovenian, the currency is euro, and the time zone is CET (UTC+1).
With the background of a high living standard and a stable economy, the market creates favorable conditions for online gambling: the iGaming sector is already showing steady growth, and its volume was estimated at about $497 million by 2025.
Reasons to test Slovenia
Slovenia is a promising region, but it often turns out to be underestimated in the iGaming niche.
Top 3 reasons to drive traffic to Slovenia right now:
- Low competition.
Slovenia is the country with a low share of online gambling in the market. For partners, this is a signal: with proper localisation and strategy, you can enter a less competitive environment and make a long-term profit. - Solvent players.
The GDP per capita in Slovenia is about $35.3 thousand, which confirms the high level of audience solvency and the potential for stable LTV. - High potential.
Slovenia is not an overheated online market: in European comparison, the share of online gambling in the overall revenue structure remains relatively low. This means that the market has not yet fully realised its digital potential and there’s a room for growth.
Players’ behaviour
Slovenian users are more likely to choose online platforms due to their convenience, wide choice of games and accessibility from mobile devices.
In this region, smartphones account for the majority of iGaming traffic — 86.45%, which requires the adaptation of all funnels to mobile devices.
Gender and age
- Men — 63%, average age 31-35 years
- Women — 37%, average age 26-30 years
According to N1 Partners, the iGaming market remains predominantly male, which is confirmed by external research: the main audience is men aged 25-44. At the same time, the proportion of women is gradually increasing, expanding the segment’s potential.
Top 10 slots Among N1 Partners Players in Slovenia
N1 Partners team notes that players prefer slots with recognizable series, bonus features and adventure themes — this directly affects retention and LTV.
- Legacy of Dead
- Book of Dead
- Heist Stakes
- Book of the Fallen
- Gates of Olympus Super Scatter
- Lucky Lady’s Charm Deluxe

4 Pots of Egypt, extending its Must Drop JACKPOT
