Footy Accumulators Betting Hub a hit with operators as app delivers record player numbers
Footy Accumulators’ Betting Hub app is primed for further tier-one operator API integrations after setting new performance records in 2021.
The user-friendly betting companion app from Footy Accumulators, the betting community brand which is part of Checkd Group, saw a record number of bets placed in January 2021, with a 20% increase on the previous monthly best.
Betting Hub is now set to hit a total of 200,000 unique users across iOS and Android after successful API integrations with some of the sports betting industry’s biggest names including bet365, Paddy Power and Betfair, with more tier-one deals set up to roll out in the near future.
The integrations mean that customers can login, check their balance and place bets without leaving the app, leading to a much slicker user experience.
Within Betting Hub, the Smart Acca tool has proven extremely popular, recently passing an overall total of one million selections added to betslips and establishing itself as a key USP for both attracting and retaining app users.
Smart Acca allows for fixtures to be organised based on form and statistical analysis. The user can choose their preferred betting markets and the tool will present those games which are statistically most likely to be a favourable choice based on pre-processed historical OPTA data. The accumulator builder allows users to easily build their bets from these selections and place them with the operator of their choice.
Checkd Group is a fast-growing iGaming affiliate based in Manchester, UK. As well as Footy Accumulators its Checkd Media division runs popular affiliate brands Oddschanger and The Winners Enclosure, while the Checkd Development division is responsible for the group’s technology platform and product suite.
Adam Patton, MD at Checkd Development, said: “Month-on-month, Betting Hub is delivering increased gains across a number of commercial and customer engagement metrics for our API partners.
“With new milestones consistently being achieved by Betting Hub, a lot of which being driven by the Smart Acca tool, we are focused on building on the success through ongoing product improvements. We also look forward to rolling out new API integrations with additional tier-one operators in the coming months.”

Study of 1,752 Big 5 league matches finds a 12-point uptime gap; live World Cup leaderboard to run during the tournament.
Bettormetrics has launched what it calls the first World Cup Trading Performance Benchmark, ranking sportsbooks on in-play market uptime ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The sports odds intelligence firm said it will publish a live World Cup leaderboard on its website during the tournament to track trading performance.
The benchmark measures operator uptime on the Total Goals market across 1,752 fixtures in the Premier League, Bundesliga, La Liga, Serie A and Ligue 1. Bettormetrics analysed 22 operators and published a Top 10, reporting a gap of more than 12 percentage points between the highest and lowest performers.
Tipico ranked first overall with 95.9% uptime, followed by Fanatics (95.3%) and Betsson (94.9%). Superbet (94.8%) and Betano (94.7%) rounded out the top five. Bettormetrics said Premier League fixtures generally delivered the highest availability across operators, while La Liga was “the key differentiator” and “consistently produced the lowest availability figures across the field.”
The results also highlighted regional shifts. Bettormetrics noted that none of bet365, William Hill, Ladbrokes or Paddy Power made the Top 10, while Fanatics placed second overall as the highest-ranked US operator. It also flagged Pinnacle and SBOBET as ranking poorly on in-play availability in this analysis despite “strong reputations for pregame pricing and market depth.”
Sabin Brooks, CEO of Bettormetrics, said: “The World Cup represents one of the highest-risk and highest-opportunity periods in the sportsbook calendar. Small differences in uptime, trading performance and market availability can have a material impact on turnover, profitability and even reputation.
“The World Cup leaderboard will answer one simple question: which sportsbook performed best when it matters most?”
