Oddschecker to Recognise Leading Operators with ‘Oddschecker Endorsed’ Honours
Oddschecker, the UK’s leading betting comparison service and FairPlay Sports Media brand, has announced its ‘oddschecker endorsed’ service, which will see the best sportsbooks recognised in various categories, including ‘Most Popular Sportsbook’ and ‘Best Bet Builder’.
With over 55 million sessions per year in the UK alone, 100 million data updates per week, and with over 120 million prices live at any time, oddschecker are uniquely positioned to provide insight and authority within the market, which has now been formalised as this new service.
Oddschecker’s endorsements will utilise its site traffic and betting activity metrics, alongside user opinion from their large, hyper-engaged betting audience to arrive at the final list of winners, which will be announced in January 2025.
Launched specifically by oddschecker to objectively recognise the best-of-the-best in a dynamic, competitive marketplace, the campaign will be renewed annually with winners and partners given feedback on how they’ve performed against a variety of metrics relevant to each category.
Winners will be able to license the ‘oddschecker endorsed’ branding across their media assets for the coming twelve months. Similar branding partnerships already using the ‘oddschecker verified’ stamp, as leveraged by the likes of William Hill and Sky Bet, have proven to drive increased customer trust and engagement in crowded marketing environments, while also delivering brand claim integrity boosts through alignment with one of the UK’s most trusted betting brands.
Andrew Bramley, Commercial Director at FairPlay Sports Media, said: “Brand recognition and trust go a long way in sports betting, but with ‘oddschecker endorsed’ we wanted to go beyond just perception and deliver an objective look at the best offerings in the market across several key competitive categories for bookmakers.
“We’re digging deep into the data to work out who is proving to be the leading sportsbooks across different sports and core metrics, from best racing product to best safer gambling tools. We’re excited to share our findings in the new year, with several big names and challenger brands set to be recognised and rewarded for giving quality betting experiences to UK bettors.”
The full list of categories that will receive ‘oddschecker endorsed’ status are as follows:
– Best Bet Builder
– Best In-Play Product
– Best Safer Gambling Tools
– Best Free To Play Game
– Best Football Product
– Best Horse Racing Product
– Best Politics Bookmaker
– Most Generous Bookmaker
– Best New Promotion

By combining the efficiency of AI with the oversight of expert traders, we’re delivering a system that ensures reliability while opening up new, creative markets no one else is offering. It’s just the beginning of what we envision as a transformative journey for the sportsbook industry,” explained Danil Emelyanov, Head of BETBY’s AI Labs. “At this stage, our AI uses up to 1000 virtual agents simulating player behavior, each with varying levels of access to information. These agents analyze, judge, and select outcomes to place bets, providing a robust dataset from which probabilities and odds are generated.”
BETBY invites operators to explore this unique AI-driven solution at booth 5J18 during ICE Barcelona.
