GRIDRIVAL LAUNCHES MOTORSPORTS DAILY FANTASY SPORTS (DFS) PLATFORM

Published

on

 

GridRival, the sports betting startup dedicated to motorsports, has launched its highly anticipated Daily Fantasy Sports offering for users across 23 states in the USA.

GridRival, a fantasy motorsports app that currently offers games based upon Formula 1 and MotoGP series, has developed a user base of over 200,000 motorsports fans in the past year, thanks to its combination of engaging fantasy league gameplay, detailed performance data, in-depth research tools and native social functionality.

Now, in addition to playing season-long leagues, the fastest-growing fantasy league game for race fans is offering real-money contests based on global race series, including Formula 1 and MotoGP. Contests based on other series, including NASCAR, are already in development and set to be rolled out in timely succession.

“Motorsports remains a hugely undervalued betting commodity, whose fans have, until now, not been effectively served by traditional operators,” says Ross Fruin, GridRival CEO and Co-Founder. “We are launching at the intersection of the rise of US sports betting, and the inexorable growth of motorsports.

“GridRival has already proven itself capable of targeting and engaging the motorsports fan base at scale with an authentic, richly-featured app, and the appetite for a motorsports-specific betting platform is clear, so we are thrilled to have launched our DFS offering.”

GridRival’s research of its users showed that 78% of its respondents who already participate in sports betting would prefer to use a motorsports-specific platform, as opposed to the offerings from major operators. Meanwhile, 32% of users who have never bet on motorsports before said they would be likely to try it with GridRival’s DFS launch.

“GridRival has been built from the ground up with proprietary tech, including our own wallet and player account management solutions, scoring engines, and game management platform that allow more control over the product experience we can deliver to our users,” says Jeff Shinrock, GridRival Co-Founder and CTO. GridRival has harvested and harnessed their knowledge of motorsports fans to build a meaningful product, which routinely laps the tired offerings that have traditionally blighted betting activity on this hugely popular sport.

“GridRival has been built by racing fans, for racing fans—and it’s a point of pride that we have been so well received by the motorsports community. With DFS, we’re providing what we believe is the first step in activating this very large audience towards a level of excitement with real money games.”

The GridRival app, which first launched in 2021, features real-money salary cap daily fantasy contests, where users select drivers and constructors. Decisions are aided by the in-depth historical race performance data upon which GridRival has built its reputation, and an in-game chat system, where players can interact within the app, boosting digital dwell-time and fan engagement.

Innovative iGaming studio Peter & Sons has entered Alberta with its full game portfolio, marking another major step in the studio’s regulated North American expansion.

The launch brings Peter & Sons’ complete catalogue to one of Canada’s most closely watched iGaming markets, as Alberta continues to develop its regulated online gaming framework. Following the growth of Ontario’s regulated model, Alberta represents an important new chapter for suppliers looking to build long-term presence across Canada.

Alberta offers a strong opportunity for Peter & Sons, combining a clear regulatory direction with a growing appetite for high-quality digital casino content. Players in the province will gain access to the studio’s full portfolio, from visually distinctive slots and recognizable characters from games like Barbarossa: Dragon Empire, The Soapranos, Greedy Alice and many others.

Renowned for its creative direction and distinctive approach to game development, Peter & Sons continues to expand across regulated markets worldwide. The Alberta entry reflects the studio’s commitment to growing its North American footprint while bringing its complete catalogue to markets where originality, performance, and player engagement all matter.

Lauryn Duncan, Head of Sales at Peter & Sons, said: “Alberta is an exciting new market for Peter & Sons and an important step in our North American growth. Launching with our full portfolio gives us the chance to introduce the complete Peter & Sons experience from day one, from the art and characters to the mechanics and worlds that define our games.

Gaming Corps has launched its online casino content with bet365 in Alberta on the first day of the province’s regulated market opening on 13 July 2026, while also expanding its content distribution with the operator in Ontario and Spain.

The Sweden-based game developer said it is among the first wave of studios fully certified for Alberta’s newly regulated market. Gaming Corps will support bet365’s Alberta entry with more than 50 games at launch, spanning Slots, Table, Plinko, Mine Games and Instant Blitz.

As part of the expanded partnership, Gaming Corps said bet365 will also gain access to its football-themed titles, including Penalty Champion: Goals to Glory, and its 3 Pigs franchise, including 3 Pigs of Olympus, 3 Pigs of Olympus 2: Rise of the DemiHog, and 3 Pigs of the Caribbean.

The rollout also includes Gaming Corps’ Low RTP Blackjack titles, which the company said are designed around 93.57% RTP and approximately 6% operator hold, with flexible branding options and side-bet mechanics.

Graham Greensmith, Chief Commercial Officer at Gaming Corps, said: “Extending our partnership with bet365 across Spain, Ontario and Alberta is a major moment for Gaming Corps, but Alberta is the real statement here. Going live with bet365 from day one reflects the work our teams have put into certification, onboarding and ensuring we can move quickly and confidently with major operator partners.

“As one of the earliest studios ready for Alberta, we’ll be bringing more than 50 titles to the province. That breadth matters, because it gives operators like bet365 a single partner across multiple verticals, with content designed to support acquisition, engagement and retention across different player segments. Spain and Ontario are also important regulated markets for us and expanding with a global operator of this scale highlights how far Gaming Corps has come in a short period of time.”

Richard Graham, Associate VP of Gaming at bet365at bet365 said: “Gaming Corps has become a valuable content partner, combining recognisable game identities with formats that add variety across our casino offering. We are pleased to extend the partnership into Spain, Ontario and Alberta, with the Alberta launch particularly important as part of our day-one commitment to the market.

“Expanding the relationship across multiple territories in a relatively short period reflects the strength of the collaboration, as well as the Gaming Corps team’s clear product direction, commitment and continued development as a game vendor. We look forward to giving players access to a wide-ranging portfolio from the moment the market opens.”
