(AsiaGameHub) – By: Christian Pierce
The sports prediction market has long struggled with trust gaps. No official, verified data backs most public trades. Users can’t be sure of fair, timely settlements. Kalshi, the world’s largest prediction market, fixed that this week.
Sportradar and Kalshi signed a multi-year global partnership. Sportradar will serve as Kalshi’s official data and solutions provider. They’ll cover MLB, NHL, MLS, UFC and other major sports properties. Their offerings include live odds, fan tools, customer acquisition, and integrity services like UFDS AI and SIE. Sportradar can now partner directly with Kalshi’s brokers and market makers too. They’ll also offer their services to other licensed prediction market entities worldwide.
This deal isn’t limited to Kalshi’s platform. Sportradar is locking in access to the entire prediction market value chain. They’re expanding beyond traditional sports betting into a regulated growth segment. This deal will redefine the competitive landscape for every sports data firm on the planet.
