The manipulation of sporting events to generate betting profits poses a major threat to the integrity of sport. For this reason, ODDSET GmbH constantly works to recognise possible manipulation of sporting events at an early stage and thus combat it.

Organization

The bookmakers responsible for gaming operations track completed bets in real time in order to be able to identify suspicious cases immediately. Furthermore, a team of security analysts at operational level is tasked with investigating any irregularities. 

Identification Mechanisms

In addition, an internal warning system automatically generates messages in real time that indicate risks of manipulation and are investigated further by the security analyst team.

Training

Bookmakers and all employees involved in betting operations are required to complete training on the topic of manipulation risks. The content of the training raises awareness of the relevant risks and conveys the appropriate behaviour in the event of identified indications of manipulation.

Cooperations

ODDSET GmbH also works closely with international early warning systems such as ULIS (United Lotteries for Integrity in Sports) and the IBIA (International Betting Integrity Association). These cross-provider early warning systems ensure a rapid and informal exchange between betting providers in the event that anomalies are reported.
