This collaboration will not only deliver best-in-class betting tech, but we will also provide our expertise in building out varied and brand new betting-associated revenue streams.
“By integrating the best of our AI-powered predictive sports data, which levels the playing field for sports fans and bettors, as well as a broad managed service of innovative betting products, we’re looking forward to deepening the relationship between The Sporting News and its loyal readers, while giving sports fans smarter tools to maximise their betting activities and enjoyment.”
Martyn Jones, co-CEO at The Sporting News, added: “We’re fast becoming one the biggest and most influential independent sports sites in the world and are well positioned for growth as we head into the start of the football, NFL, and NBA seasons, while looking forward to a huge 2026 World Cup. This is an exciting partnership with FairPlay, that will provide a deeper layer of insight and context for our audience.
“Along with the integration of revenue-driving technology, we’re looking forward to establishing a long-term relationship that will position The Sporting News as the go-to resource for both sports news and betting opportunities.”
