Kambi Group plc has signed a long-term agreement to provide its sportsbook to the LiveScore Group of companies, comprising one of the world's leading sports media platforms and two online betting brands. Following a competitive selection process, Kambi's sportsbook will power the LiveScore Bet and Virgin Bet brands globally through the provision of Kambi's high-performance sports betting platform, range of managed services and suite of award-winning products including AI-powered trading and Bet Builder. The operator's in-house product teams will also utilise Kambi's open APIs, as well as leverage Kambi's powerful incentives tools and bespoke bet offer specials to create a unique user experience for its global user base.

The agreement between Kambi and LiveScore Group's LiveScore Betting & Gaming is expected to contribute material revenue for Kambi starting H2 2024, growing in line with LiveScore Group's roll-out into current and future markets. Formed in 2019 following a spin-off from Gamesys Group, LiveScore Group is the operator of renowned sports media brand LiveScore, the leading real-time sports data provider and streaming service, with more than 50 million daily users across 200-plus territories. LiveScore Group's sportsbook brands, LiveScore Bet and Virgin Bet, are currently active in several markets across the globe, including a strong presence in the UK, and the deal currently spans the Group's subsidiaries in Gibraltar, Malta and Nigeria.

The Group has plans to expand the LiveScore Bet brand further in partnership with Kambi, as it replaces its existing third-party sportsbook technology. The new Kambi-powered sportsbook should begin to be rolled out across multiple markets from First Quarter 2024.
