Sportradar and lottery game developer EquiLottery Games announced a first-of-its-kind data partnership to power lottery games based on the results of live sporting events. This agreement initially covers the data necessary to offer Baseball Bucks, the first daily lottery draw game based on the results of a professional sports league. EquiLottery Games recently announced a partnership with Major League Baseball (MLB) to develop Baseball Bucks.
"We are thrilled to add another industry leader to our growing list of partners in the gaming space," said EquiLottery Games Founder and CEO Brad Cummings. "Through this deal, our lottery partners can be confident the data we use to power our games will be of the utmost integrity.
"Development in the sports gaming space has been understandably dominated by sportsbook providers," said Sportradar’s Corporate Sales Manager, US Betting, Joe Solosky. "As such, we are excited to join a true innovator that’s putting a new spin on engaging players with games based on live sporting events. We look forward to being a part of the success for Baseball Bucks and other future games that EquiLottery Games develops."
