Sporting Solutions named associate member of GLMS

La Française des Jeux-owned betting content and technology provider Sporting Solutions has joined the Global Lottery Monitoring System (GLMS) as an associate member, the first sportsbook supplier to do so.

Sporting Solutions, which sits within FDJ’s B2B subsidiary Gaming Solutions, works with many top-tier lotteries that operate sports betting, GMLS noted.

As an associate member, the supplier will receive summaries of GLMS suspicious activity alerts, and gain access to its education and prevention resources. Sporting Solutions will also be able to tap into GLMS’s information network, though which members share intelligence on betting activity.

“I am delighted to welcome Sporting Solutions within the GLMS family,” GLMS president Ludovico Calvi said. “They are a perfect complement to the GLMS global monitoring and intelligence capabilities with their history in pricing, trading and risk management services.”

Calvi said that by signing up to the integrity watchdog’s code of conduct, had shown a “clear commitment to promote transparent and socially responsible betting operations”.

“We look forward to working closely with Sporting Solutions with the objective of protecting our core values and acting as a shield against global sport corruption,” he added.

Sporting Solutions managing director Edward Peace said the partnership built on the supplier’s existing partnerships with World Lottery Association members, and highlighted the supplier’s shared values with the lottery sector.

“The commendable work of GLMS to protect the integrity of sports betting and educate the industry is invaluable,” Peace said. “We’re very proud to join the growing GLMS family and strengthen our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of sports betting integrity.”
