The pricing partner

Sporting Solutions

Sporting Solutions is part of Betsson Group, acquired specifically for its innovation and pricing expertise. That in-house pricing capability is what made it possible to design, model and back-test a new market and take it live across the group — without depending on a third-party supplier.

01

How it was delivered

A single, joined-up workflow across two teams within one group: Sporting Solutions owning the model and the feed, the Betsson sportsbook owning the platform and the experience.

Sporting Solutions

Modelling & concept design

Sporting Solutions designed the model and the concept for Football Total Goals from the ground up.

Joint

Proposition & experience refinement

The proposition and the UI/UX were refined together with the Betsson sportsbook team to fit how players actually bet.

Betsson

Platform readiness

Betsson defined and delivered the platform changes required, including in-play settlement and wallet adaptations.

Sporting Solutions

Back-testing & validation

The model was back-tested across a historic database of fixtures to refine its behaviour and tune margin application before any money was at risk.

Joint

Feed integration

The market was integrated into the Sporting Solutions Odds Feed, with hands-on integration support provided to the Betsson sportsbook.

Betsson

Commercial sign-off

Product sign-off was completed with Betsson’s Commercial Directors.

Joint

Trading set-up

Trading decisions were made on player staking limits and on which markets to offer in which territories.
