Sportradar

A global provider of sports data and match-integrity monitoring

Contact for pricing Switzerland

Sportradar collects real-time data from hundreds of thousands of matches worldwide and sells it to betting operators, media, and leagues, while also using AI for match-integrity monitoring — detecting abnormal betting patterns to find possible match-fixing. This line makes its role in the sports industry more special than a plain data vendor.

Features and use scenarios

Services include real-time odds data, audio-video streaming, ad tech, and fan-interaction products, and it has official data-rights agreements with many international leagues. Its integrity-monitoring system, the Universal Fraud Detection System, has long worked with international sports federations and law-enforcement agencies, flagging suspicious matches by monitoring abnormal swings in betting markets — the lead-starting point for quite a few match-fixing cases.

It suits sports leagues, event organizers, media, and legal betting operators. For Taiwanese readers, the most worth knowing is its integrity-monitoring role — professional sports' match-fixing suspicions are now largely gatekept by this kind of data monitoring.

Editor's Note

The same company serving betting operators while catching match-fixing sounds contradictory, but that's the reality of a data company — only those who can see the market can spot the market's anomalies.

FAQ

How does integrity monitoring work?

The system monitors odds and money-flow changes in global betting markets, and when a match shows an abnormal betting pattern inconsistent with the strength gap, it issues an alert, then humans and relevant units investigate. It provides leads, not verdicts.

Is Taiwan's professional sport covered?

Match monitoring at the international-sports-federation level has broad coverage, and international events Taiwanese teams participate in may be included. Whether domestic leagues adopt it needs confirming with each league.
