Best-price sportsbook app SBK joins Oddschecker grid
SBK, the sportsbook app powered by Smarkets, is now live on Oddschecker, allowing the odds comparison site’s three million monthly users to directly compare SBK’s industry-leading pricing against the rest of the market.
SBK’s odds are taken straight from the Smarkets betting exchange – which has been on the Oddschecker grid since March 2018 – meaning the app is the only place in the industry where users can get the unique combination of low-margin exchange pricing and an intuitive sportsbook user experience.
Smarkets CEO/Founder Jason Trost said: “I’m excited that Oddschecker’s substantial user base can now see SBK’s odds on the famous grid. SBK’s blend of the superior pricing of a betting exchange with the simpler interface of a traditional sportsbook is unmatched in the industry, and there is no better place to showcase that than Oddschecker.
“For price-savvy customers, Oddschecker is the place to go to ensure you’re getting the best odds, and SBK is the best-priced sportsbook app in the country, so this move was a no-brainer.
“After partnering with Oddschecker for Smarkets nearly three years ago, joining the grid with SBK is further evidence that we are serious about disrupting the industry by offering the best value out there.”
SBK boasts its own in-app price comparison feature, Price+, which highlights odds in the app when they are better than those offered by nine leading bookmakers. The app-only sportsbook also features a built-in social network that allows users to like and comment on other users’ bets, share tips with followers, and check out selections from leading tipsters.
Sports bettors can download SBK, which was first launched in 2019, from the App Store for iOS, Play Store for Android, or via getSBK.com.

SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator: Largest Content Hub Certified in Brazil
The SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator, the largest content hub in the iGaming industry, has secured Brazilian certification, becoming one of the first in the market to achieve this milestone.
Regulatory rules for iGaming come into effect in Brazil on 1 January 2025. According to them, platforms, aggregators, sportsbooks, and providers must undergo certification. Companies aiming to provide their services in Brazil in 2025 and beyond have been preparing for this transition throughout the year.
The SOFTSWISS team announces that its Game Aggregator is the first to fully comply with regulations, completing all necessary preparations and receiving the certificate to ensure smooth and efficient operations for its clients.
SOFTSWISS has also obtained certification for integration with the world’s largest game providers – Pragmatic Play, Evolution, and Playtech. These providers offer a diverse range of games tailored to suit the preferences of Brazilian players, from immersive live dealer experiences to engaging slots and table games, ensuring entertainment for every type of player.
According to recent Kantar research conducted in November 2024, the overall satisfaction index for the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator is 8.1 out of 10. Remarkably, half of the respondents rated the product a 10 or 9. Customer support service satisfaction scored even higher, at 8.4 out of 10.
The Game Aggregator also boasts a key advantage: consistent 99.999% uptime, which is crucial for the iGaming business.
Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS, notes: “According to our information, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator is the first aggregator fully prepared, both technically and legally, to work in Brazil when the new regulations take effect. This is a significant achievement that the team has worked on diligently and systematically. Our work doesn’t stop here – we are actively adding new providers to help our clients expand their presence in this promising Brazilian market, which is no longer ‘the sleeping giant’. It has awakened, and SOFTSWISS is at the forefront of this exciting transformation.”
To support this high level of performance, earlier this year SOFTSWISS appointed Rubens Barrichello, the Brazilian Formula 1 legend, as a Non-Executive Director, demonstrating its strong commitment to the local market. To ensure efficient operations and promptly address ongoing matters, SOFTSWISS also has a dedicated team of local business development managers in Brazil.
SOFTSWISS team will be available to discuss partnership in Brazil and other markets at the first major iGaming event of 2025 – ICE Barcelona, taking place on 20–22 January, at stand 2G42.
