Genius Sports have confirmed a partnership deal with FanDuel that will see the former provide the latter with a range of official NFL data, content, media products and trading services.
FanDuel was selected as one of the NFL’s official betting partners back in April of this year and this latest agreement has further strengthened their position as one of the primary NFL sportsbooks in the United States.
As for Genius Sports, they have become the league’s exclusive live streaming partner and distributor of real-time official play-by-play statistics, making this partnership a match made in heaven for both sides. Genius Sports already provides betting data to a number of sportsbooks in the US, including FanDuel, including their highly valuable Next Gen Stats.
The NFL isn’t the only league that Genius Sports has data rights to, with other partnerships including NASCAR, the Premier League and LigaMX, which FanDuel will also now have access to within their product. This will hugely boost their overall portfolio of events and give them access to sports betting data from thousands of different events.
FanDuel, the largest mobile betting operator in the United States, will only strengthen their platform as a result of this additional betting data that can be used by sports bettors that have an account with them.
