Hungarian Lottery goes live with OddsMatrix sportsbook & platform services
The Hungarian national lottery company, Szerencsejáték Privately Held Company Limited (SZRT), has gone live with OddsMatrix-powered sportsbook and platform services enabling the country’s residents to safely and responsibly enjoy 21st century digital betting experiences.
EveryMatrix was awarded the public tender in January 2023 to provide the Hungarian state-owned gaming and lottery operator with an end-to-end suite of advanced digital sports betting software solutions and services for its online brand TippmixPro.
Designed to create the ultimate online sports betting experience in the newly regulated market, the multi-year agreement was awarded to EveryMatrix after a 15-month competitive procurement process with more than 25 bidders.
SZRT is a member of the World Lottery Association (WLA) and the sports betting market leader in Hungary. Its new OddsMatrix-powered sportsbook will drive the brand to new levels, giving both new and existing customers the opportunity to experience features including Cash Out and Bet Builder, alongside promotions such as Stake-Back Special, for the first time.
This was one of the company’s most complex integrations to date involving multiple teams including GamMatrix, EveryMatrix’s platform unit. GamMatrix purpose-built a range of project-critical operational and safer gambling features including rapid, multi-step registration and a comprehensive array of self-exclusion functionality in line with specific SZRT and regulatory requirements.
SZRT will benefit from decades of experience within EveryMatrix’s trading, product, and account management teams as well as harness the power of its PartnerMatrix affiliate system.
At the core of the new sportsbook lies the highest standards of responsible gambling. Accessible through desktop and mobile web browsers, in addition to native Android and iOS apps, it features proprietary models that generate industry-leading market uptime, an AI-driven content concierge that curates and serves tailored recommendations, and a revolutionary promotions engine designed to enhance player retention and reactivation.
In September 2023 EveryMatrix became the first iGaming supplier to receive WLA Safer Gambling Certification.
Ebbe Groes, CEO, EveryMatrix, said: “We are delighted to have gone live in Hungary with our valued partners SZRT. This is just the beginning of a relationship filled with endless possibilities with both sets of dedicated teams sharing a vision that extends far beyond a single milestone.
“Our mission is to craft not just a sportsbook, but a never-ending story of innovation. Just as athletes persistently train to refine their abilities, we are equally determined to create new plays, redefine the game, and develop groundbreaking products that propels SZRT as the benchmark for sports betting excellence.”
“Winning SZRT earlier this year and now going live with a complex and comprehensive offering in such an exciting, newly regulated market underlines the quality of our solutions, services, and expertise across multiple disciplines and we look forward to delivering exceptional results and driving consistent growth in the months and years ahead.”
Andrea Mager, President & CEO, Szerencsejáték Privately Held Company Limited, said: “We launched our online sports betting platform 10 years ago and have always strived to offer the best to our customers. The relaunch of tippmixpro.hu is a milestone for the company and our players. The new site offers a much broader range of world-class sports betting opportunities without losing sight of our responsible gaming principles. In addition to new features that improve the player experience, we also offer betting opportunities and markets that players can only legally access on tippmixpro.hu.
“We were delighted to partner with an international supplier such as EveryMatrix in January. During the following months of development, it became clear to us that beyond the business partnership the company offers professional knowledge that ensures the long-term development of TippmixPro, providing our players with a world-class online sports betting platform.”
