Checkd Group launches its FlashPicks app in North America

The app was developed by the group’s Checkd Dev division, the in-house platform and technology development department.

Incorporated within the app from launch are FanDuel, DraftKings, Caesars, Bet365, PointsBet and BetMGM. Users will be able to select the best odds and lines for their chosen selections from these operators and will be able to subscribe to real-time notifications for match and score updates.

The group developed the app based on the Smart Acca technology in the UK, which utilises historical data to provide betting indications.

Adam Patton, managing director of Checkd Dev, believes that the app was the next “logical step” in the journey for the brand and will help the user in decision-making.

“The FlashPicks app provides users with all the information they need to make knowledgeable, informed selections and with a host of leading operators on board we believe it will in time have a major impact on the overall sports betting ecosystem.”

Callum Broxton, head of US operations at Checkd Group, says that the profile of the FlashPicks brand has grown since its launch in 2022.

“Following the launch of the FlashPicks brand last year, we have seen its profile increase month by month and that will only continue as more states and provinces adopt regulation,” said Broxton.

“The launch of the FlashPicks app is a major landmark for us and it’s a development we are all very excited about.”

Players in Ontario and all US states where online sports betting is regulated can download the app.
