Starcasino joins IBIA to drive betting integrity following Dutch sportsbook launch

Starcasino has joined the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA). The move is part of the operator's recent launch of its sportsbook in the Netherlands via the Altenar sportsbook, which is also a member of IBIA.

The operator is also established in Belgium and Spain and joins over 80 companies and 140 sports betting brands that feed into IBIA's betting integrity network, which monitors over $300 billion in sports bets each year.

Starcasino's membership supports IBIA's position as the major sports betting integrity monitor in the Netherlands, with the association representing around 90% of the licensed sportsbooks currently in operation in the country.

Kylian Olierook, Director of Starcasino Netherlands, said: "Starcasino.nl has joined the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA) as part of our ongoing effort to support fair and honest sports betting.

"Together with our sportsbook partner Altenar, we want to help protect sports from manipulation and ensure a safe experience for our players. By working with IBIA, we take an active role in monitoring and reporting suspicious betting activity."

Khalid Ali, CEO of IBIA, said: "We are delighted to welcome Starcasino to our association. Their addition strengthens our global monitoring network and reinforces our shared commitment to safeguarding the integrity of sports and regulated betting markets.

"Membership of IBIA highlights Starcasino's dedication to maintaining the highest standards of integrity and transparency in the regulated sports betting industry. We look forward to working closely with Starcasino to protect the integrity of its products and markets."

IBIA is a not-for-profit body that has no competing conflicts with the delivery of commercial services to other sectors and was established by operators, for operators, to protect regulated sports betting markets from match-fixing.

Its global monitoring network serves as an anti-corruption tool, detecting and reporting suspicious activity in regulated betting markets. Through the IBIA global monitoring network, it is possible to track transactional activities linked to individual customer accounts; this data is only available to IBIA and its members.
