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.”

Midnite has agreed a partnership with Middlesbrough FC that will see the UK bookmaker become the club’s principal partner and front-of-shirt sponsor for the 2026/27 campaign, which Middlesbrough describes as its landmark 150th season.
The companies announced the deal alongside a fan activation at Riverside Stadium on Thursday, July 9, branded “This Season’s On Us”. The initiative offered supporters prizes including 2026/27 season tickets, 2026/27 shirts, match tickets, or a £25 club shop voucher, with fans required to answer Middlesbrough trivia and complete a football challenge.
Middlesbrough former players Craig Hignett and David Wheater attended the event, and, according to the company, took bonus attempts on behalf of participants who missed out.
Andrew Mook, Midnite’s Head of Brand Marketing, said:
“Middlesbrough have a storied history and we’re delighted to announce this partnership during such a monumental year with the club celebrating their 150th anniversary.
“It was great to see so many Middlesbrough fans at the “This Season’s On Us” activation, we hope they enjoyed taking part and meeting club legends, with David Wheater hitting top bins on several occasions and allowing fans to win big with season tickets.
“We can’t wait to get to Riverside Stadium in August to kick-off a new season and we’re excited to say that we have plenty of new and captivating campaigns planned.”
Lee Fryett, Middlesbrough FC Chief Commercial Officer, added:
“We’re delighted to welcome Midnite as our new Principal Partner.
“We’re looking forward to working closely with Midnite to develop engaging campaigns, content and unique experiences that bring our fans even closer to the club.
“We’re confident this partnership will provide real value for our supporters while supporting our ambitions both on and off the pitch.”

ThrillTech has been awarded a Gaming-Related Supplier licence by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), clearing the company to launch in Ontario’s regulated market.
The licence allows ThrillTech to deploy its opt-in side bet jackpots technology with regulated online casino, sports betting and lottery operators across the province.
Benjamin Bradtke, Co-Founder of ThrillTech, said: “Securing our AGCO licence is a major step in our mission to transform how jackpots are delivered at scale across regulated markets. This latest certification is testament to our robust technology and trusted compliance frameworks, allowing us to continue our global growth trajectory. We are thrilled to bring our proven, compliant jackpot technology to Ontario, empowering locally licensed operators to uplift revenue without cannibalising existing spend.”
The company said its “ThrillPots” mechanics sit as an independent, player-funded side bet and do not alter the underlying game’s return-to-player mathematics.
ThrillTech said the Ontario approval enables its existing multinational partners that also operate in the province to launch its side bet jackpots locally, while it also holds talks with potential new operator partners. The company lists its regulated footprint as including the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Netherlands, Romania, Malta, Gibraltar, Brazil and Peru.

The company said its ThrillPots product lets operators add player-funded, opt-in side-bet jackpots on top of existing games, without changing gameplay or the underlying return-to-player (RTP) calculations. ThrillTech positions the mechanic as a way to drive incremental engagement and revenue.
ThrillTech said the Ontario licence enables existing multinational partners that also operate in the province to roll out ThrillTech-powered jackpots locally, and added it is in discussions with potential new operator partners. The company listed other regulated jurisdictions it serves as the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Netherlands, Romania, Malta, Gibraltar, Brazil, and Peru.
