A flexible feature designed to improve player retention
DATA.BET, the sportsbook solution supplier, has introduced Bet Builder functionality as part of its sports betting offering. Starting with football, basketball, and hockey, the feature is already available and integrated by the company’s first partners.
Bet Builder allows players to combine multiple outcomes into a single bet, enhancing engagement and personalization. For football, it also supports Player Props markets — such as individual player actions — that can be mixed with standard or other personalized selections. The same functionality will soon be available for basketball, followed by broader availability across other major sports disciplines.
This rollout continues a stream of updates to DATA.BET’s sportsbook offering which already includes full sports, esports, and virtual sports coverage, automated settlements, 24/7 trading, and seamless integration options.
Launched in early June, DATA.BET’s sports betting solution stands out with access to 50,000+ monthly events, coverage of over 63 pre-match and 38 live sports, and more than 1,000 betting markets. Enhanced by features such as Cashout, Video Streaming, and interactive Widgets, the release significantly strengthens the overall sportsbook experience and further boosts the offering.
“Bet Builder elevates the player experience by introducing more personalized and creative ways to engage with the betting process,” said Rostyslav Likhtin, Head of Product at DATA.BET. “As an addition to our recently released sports betting solution, it delivers extra value to operators and is already being tested with positive client feedback.”
DATA.BET representatives will be attending iGB L!VE in London on July 2–3 to present the company’s expanded sportsbook offerings.

Red Rake Gaming, a leading developer of online casino content, announces the release of Grand Bison, a new video slot that takes players deep into the wild plains alongside the mighty bison.
Built on a classic 5×3 reel layout with 25 paylines, Grand Bison delivers a thrilling and fast-paced experience packed with special features designed to boost win potential.
A standout element in the game is the Multiplier WILD, which not only substitutes for other symbols but also multiplies the total win of the spin. When 1, 2, or 3 Multiplier WILDs appear, the total prize is multiplied by 2x, 3x, or 4x respectively. Landing 3 SCATTER symbols unlocks the Free Spins feature, awarding 7 free spins where the real stampede begins.
During the Free Spins, every SCATTER collected transforms animal symbols into additional WILDs, significantly increasing the chances of triggering more free spins and big wins.
With rich visuals, immersive gameplay, and a nature-inspired soundtrack, Grand Bison invites operators to add this powerful title to their slot offering and provide players with a wild and rewarding adventure.
Red Rake Gaming continues to expand its portfolio with dynamic and innovative games tailored for global markets. All new releases are seamlessly integrated into the company’s proven Tournament Tool, boosting player engagement and entertainment across all platforms.
