Simplebet, a global leader in micro-betting products, has joined the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA). The US-based company, which provides B2B services across the burgeoning U.S. market covering NFL, MLB, NBA, college football and basketball events, reinforces IBIA’s growing foothold across the North American region. Simplebet joins over 45 companies and 125 leading sports betting brands in IBIA, which account for over $137bn in global betting handle per annum and nearly 50% of all regulated commercial betting activity. The company strengthens IBIA’s position as the leading global sports betting integrity monitoring body.

Melissa Davis, EVP of Business Affairs / General Counsel of Simplebet, said: “Integrity and trust are non-negotiable at Simplebet, so we are excited to be partnering with the IBIA, who are the world’s leading independent integrity monitor. Pooling our resources will help maintain fair play in sport, negate corruption in sports betting, and ensure our partners and their customers can enjoy peace of mind when it comes to wagering.”

Khalid Ali, CEO of IBIA, said: “I am very pleased to welcome Simplebet to IBIA; its membership highlights the operator’s commitment to protecting the integrity of betting and related sporting events. Simplebet brings a distinctive approach and product range that marries well with our existing members and continues IBIA’s expansion across the growing U.S. regulated sports betting market. The association looks forward to working closely with Simplebet to ensure the integrity of its products and services.”

The International Betting Integrity Association is the leading global voice on integrity for the licensed betting industry. It is run by operators for operators, protecting its members from corruption through collective action. Its monitoring and alert network is a highly effective anti-corruption tool that detects and reports suspicious activity on its members’ betting markets. The association has longstanding information-sharing partnerships with leading sports and gambling regulators to utilise its data and prosecute corruption. It represents the sector at high-level betting integrity policy discussion forums managed by the IOC, United Nations, Council of Europe and European Commission.

Simplebet has developed a suite of innovative micro-betting products for the NFL, NBA, MLG, college football and, most recently, college basketball. The company enables sports betting operators, media companies and technology companies to enhance live sports by offering engaging experiences in real-time with its proprietary automated operations platform.
