Betfred launch Spotlight Sports Group in-play betting content
Betfred has launched Spotlight Sports Group in-play betting content across its website and mobile app. The in-play content brings customers live stats, suggestions and betting analysis, bringing customers the most up to date tipping suggestions throughout the match.
The product provides expert handwritten content for 90 leagues in over 60 languages. Driven by the AI service, Spotlight Sports Group in-play content uses a combination of editorial experts, historic match data and live on-field events to create compelling, contextually relevant bet stimulations that drive engagement and turnover across numerous betting markets.
To ensure Betfred had the product as early in the season as possible, Spotlight Sports Group designed, mapped and developed a front-end solution that integrated all Betfred’s markets, and odds. As a result of this development, the product now fits seamlessly on the Betfred sportsbook allowing customers to place bets directly from the bet stimulations.
Betfred’s partnership with Spotlight Sports Group continues to grow having rolled out content for horseracing, sport and football online whilst they continue to support retail endeavours across their high-street estate.
Discussing the launch of the new service Spotlight Sports Group Account Director, Darren Hale mentioned the advanced technology of the product and how it can help Betfred engage a new audience.
Hale said: ‘In-play football betting has grown exponentially over the past ten years to become the critical betting market. Our in-play content service sits alongside that perfectly, as there is no other product on the market able to offer real-time, expert betting insights in any language. For Betfred customers, this will arm them with knowledge from our experts to make informed betting decisions.
“The technology in the background of this product is second to none. It is completely customisable so Betfred only receives the content they want, and as well as an API we are capable of providing a bespoke plug and play solution in weeks. I’m incredibly excited to see Betfred customers begin to use it.”
Digital Sportsbook Product Manager at Betfred, Stuart Grant echoed those sentiments and talked about how Betfred continues to offer the best customer experience with expert content.
“We’ve always firmly believed content on site is one of the key ways to drive engagement and improve our customer experience. Working with Spotlight Sports Group over the years has seen us add Racing Post horseracing content and Racing Post Sport content and we are delighted to expand that to in-play. This product is like nothing else on the market and our customers are in for a treat.”

“Stories”, a new feature design to elevate sportsbook engagement and promotional visibility from BETBY
BETBY, the leading sportsbook provider, has announced the launch of Stories, a new feature designed to transform how operators present promotions and key events to their players.
Inspired by the widely adopted Stories format seen across social media platforms, the feature introduces a familiar, intuitive way for bettors to discover and engage with content directly within the sportsbook interface.
As competition for user attention continues to intensify, operators face the ongoing challenge of delivering promotions and updates in a way that cuts through the noise without overwhelming the user experience.
Stories addresses this by offering a dynamic, swipeable format that brings key content — such as bonuses, tournaments, major sporting events, and boosted odds — into a more engaging and accessible space.
Fully integrated into BETBY’s sportsbook environment, Stories enables bettors to seamlessly browse through short, interactive content cards, mirroring the mechanics they already use daily on social platforms.
This familiarity plays a key role in driving immediate interaction, lowering the barrier to engagement, and creating additional touchpoints between operators and their users.
By introducing a format that naturally encourages exploration, Stories helps increase visibility across promotional campaigns while supporting higher engagement rates.
Each new Story acts as a trigger for curiosity, prompting users to click through and discover new offers or events, ultimately contributing to improved promo turnover.
The feature feels particularly intuitive to younger demographics, who are already accustomed to this style of interaction.
By aligning sportsbook UX with established digital behaviors, BETBY allows operators to connect with these audiences in a more organic and impactful way.
“Stories is about meeting users where they already are, in terms of how they consume content,” said Aglaja Geta, Head of UX & Analytics at BETBY.
“We wanted to introduce a format that feels instantly familiar, while giving operators a powerful new way to highlight their most important promotions and events.
It creates a smoother, more engaging experience that encourages interaction without adding complexity to the platform.”
From an operational perspective, Stories offers a streamlined way to enhance the front-end experience without requiring structural changes to the sportsbook.
The feature integrates seamlessly, allowing operators to enrich their content strategy while maintaining a clean and intuitive interface.
