Revolutionizing Sports Betting: Checkd Dev Expands Partnership with Stats Perform to Enhance Accumulator Betting with Smart Acca
Innovative Tool for Sports Bettors to be Integrated in Betting Platforms
Sports betting technology leader Checkd Dev, a division of the award-winning Checkd Group, has announced the signing of an expanded sports data licensing agreement with its long-time partner, Stats Perform, the owner of the well-respected Opta data brand. This new multiyear contract is set to transform the betting experience for users engaging in football and various U.S. sports by allowing licensed operators to incorporate Checkd Dev’s innovative Smart Acca interactive betting tool into their online and mobile sportsbooks.
Smart Acca: A Game-Changer in Betting Technology
Originally developed for Checkd Dev’s award-winning Betting Hub app, Smart Acca is designed to enable bettors to easily access detailed and trusted team and player statistics powered by Opta data. Users can quickly analyze multiple games and competitions, while also seeing real-time odds for their potential bets. The Smart Acca tool offers a streamlined path to bet placement, particularly catering to recreational gamblers who are increasingly popularizing accumulator bets—bets that combine multiple selections into one wager.
Accumulator bets, while on the rise in popularity, have proven challenging for sportsbooks to adequately support with pertinent statistics and insights for bettors. Smart Acca addresses this issue effectively, as data analysis has indicated that users leverage the tool to incorporate more legs into their accumulator bets compared to averages, ultimately yielding higher profit margins for operators.
Enhancing the Sportsbook Experience
The Smart Acca API is already in play, powering pre-match betting research across various football markets. Users can explore statistics related to goalscorers, shots, shots on target, and fouls directly within leading sportsbooks in the UK, such as Sky Bet, William Hill, and Paddy Power. This integration means bettors can complete their research and bet placements all in one location—eliminating the need to navigate away from the sportsbook site for additional information.
Recent Innovations and Future Prospects
This latest advancement follows Checkd Dev’s recent successes, including the launch of the Boxing News app and the development of the North America-focused FlashPicks app. Both utilize the technology behind the Betting Hub, offering options based on historical Opta data feeds.
Andrew Grimshaw, commercial director at Checkd Dev, highlighted the significance of this deal with Stats Perform, emphasizing, “This is an important deal with a long-term valued partner… Bettors using Smart Acca in their chosen sportsbook are using Opta data, the most recognized and trusted sports stats in the business.” He noted that the tool presents relevant competition and market selections, all displayed on a single page to facilitate quicker accumulator placements than traditional online journeys.
Nick Cockerill, vice president of betting products at Stats Perform, praised the functionality of Smart Acca, stating, “Smart Acca technology is a very impressive betting solution that has already enriched and simplified the process of choosing an accumulator bet for end users.” This partnership showcases how quality sports data can create engaging experiences, connecting fans and bettors more closely with their favorite games.
As the landscape of sports betting continues to evolve, Checkd Dev’s commitment to innovation through integrations like Smart Acca positions the company and its partners at the forefront of a booming marketplace. The upcoming years promise to bring even more exciting features and expansions, enhancing how bettors engage with their sports of choice.
