What is Official Sports Data?

Sports data is facts and information relating to a sporting event or competition, including schedules, standings, scores, plus all team and player statistics.

Official Sports Data is sanctioned and approved by the sports’ governing body, therefore guaranteeing its credibility.

 

The Use of Official Data Should be Mandated

Sports Data is the fuel that powers the global sports betting market. It must be fast, accurate and 100% reliable.

By mandating the use of Official Sports Data to offer and settle wagers, state legislators can protect U.S. citizens and safeguard sports integrity.
