Infront Bettor, the betting-focused division of Infront, has taken major steps to advance its tennis data solutions as its landmark five-year global partnership with the International Tennis Federation (ITF) approaches its 2025 start.

The progress is underscored by significant new agreements for both the ITF and France’s Ligue 1 Uber Eats, notably a strategic partnership with Rush Street Interactive, Inc. (NYSE:RSI), the online operator of BetRivers in fifteen U.S. states, as well as RushBet in the regulated international markets of Ontario, Canada, Colombia and Mexico, and an extended agreement with bet365. Several more deals are also on the horizon.

Chris Catling, Head of Infront Bettor, said: “Our data platform has made significant strides 11 months out from our ITF rights starting, with integration documents already in the hands of clients. We’re on track to boost the streaming production of ITF tournament matches by over 25% and achieve 100% streaming coverage at the highest levels of World Tennis Tour competitions. Our computer vision system is also starting to take shape and will look to enhance the levels of data collection previously provided for the World Tennis Tour.”

The partnership between Infront and the ITF encompasses the ITF Men’s and Women’s World Tennis Tour, Billie Jean King Cup by Gainbridge and Davis Cup

It includes extensive data coverage for over 58,000 tennis matches annually, underpinned by an umpire scoring solution in which Infront will deploy over 700 handheld devices in alignment with the ITF’s competition calendar. The scoring solution is being developed in close collaboration with the ITF and Tennis Data Innovations ), putting Infront Bettor at the heart of future tennis data unification. The solution will also be augmented by the development of a computer vision solution to enhance the level of data available to fans and bookmakers.

“We are in a very good place to provide a service that delivers a high-quality tennis product 24/7/365,” Catling added. “Furthermore, we have secured a broader portfolio of rights, created a robust video platform which has delivered over 1.5 billion streaming views for clients in the past 18 months, offering added commercial value to the business. These are notable milestones that put us a long way ahead of where we had planned to be at this stage.”

The ITF partnership was one of several significant business wins for Infront Bettor in 2023. It also agreed a five-year partnership with France’s Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP), including Ligue 1 Uber Eats, starting from the 2024/25 season. The deal enhanced Infront’s presence in French football, building upon existing relationships, including betting rights for the Coupe de France and a production-focused partnership with LFP. The collaboration also includes a commitment to deliver advanced computer vision data solutions.

Infront Bettor is part of the Group’s Media, Betting and Technology unit led by Amikam Kranz as Senior Vice President. This combination of Infront’s media rights business with betting and technology provides more holistic commercial opportunities to rights holders and innovative technology solutions to the betting industry.

ProntoPaga Transforms its Operating Model in Brazil to Ensure Risk-Free Transactions

ProntoPaga Transforms its Operating Model in Brazil to Ensure Risk-Free Transactions

 

ProntoPaga, a leading payment solutions company in Latin America, announces a key transformation in its operating model for the Brazilian market.

By implementing a new model as a Technology Service Provider (TSP), ProntoPaga is setting an important milestone in the evolution of the payments industry in Brazil for the new regulated online betting market, generating a positive impact on transparency and security for operators.

This implementation takes place in a key context for the gambling sector in Brazil, where the market regulation is undergoing modifications. The new legislation, which will take effect on January 1, 2025, aims to increase control over gaming operators’ transactions, a sector that has been affected in previous years by irregular practices and tax fraud. In this scenario, ProntoPaga takes the initiative to operate under a model that ensures operators more security in the administration of their funds.

Operating Model: Payment Facilitator without Money Handling

Under the TSP structure, ProntoPaga does not manage funds in their own accounts in Brazil, instead, operator’s funds will always be in bank accounts in their own names. These accounts are opened in 3 banks, with mandates that allow these openings to be frictionless. ProntoPaga will act as a facilitator, providing its technology to process transactions securely, efficiently, and without risk.

Technology for Zero-Risk, Maximum Transparency Transactions

With a robust technological infrastructure, ProntoPaga is responsible for “routing” transactions intelligently from the operators’ accounts to banking entities, completing transactions without directly accessing the operator’s funds. This process offers operators a transparent, secure, and risk-free experience in the Brazilian market, since their funds are always intact and not mixed in bank accounts with other operator’s funds.

Trust in an Evolving Market

ProntoPaga’s adoption of the TSP model in Brazil responds to the need to adapt to a more regulated Brazilian market, where bad practices created significant irregularities. Before the new legislation, cases of tax fraud and other offenses tarnished the reputation of certain PSPs, leaving operators and clients exposed to unnecessary risks. This migration to a TSP model guarantees a clear separation between operators’ finances and payment processing, ensuring strict regulatory compliance and eliminating any risk associated with fund management. ProntoPaga will continue strengthening its presence in the region, providing cutting-edge technology that supports the evolution of payment markets and financial regulation.

Certifications and Regulations

ProntoPaga holds international certifications that guarantee the security, transparency, and reliability of its operations. Among these are PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) and ISO 27001 certifications, which validate and ensure that transactions are protected against fraud and cybersecurity threats. The company also holds certifications related to compliance and anti-money laundering (AML) and other regulations that govern and support the regulatory compliance of its operations in the countries where it operates. This is essential to provide security to its clients and partners, especially in markets with strict regulations like Brazil. These certifications, in addition to its advanced encryption and authentication technologies, reinforce its commitment to integrity and trust in each transaction in the markets where it operates.
