SBTech launches Pulse, its revolutionary live betting product
Industry-leading provider unveils latest in-play innovation at ICE 2018
London, UK – 6 February, ICE 2018 ExCeL London
SBTech, the leading sports betting solutions provider to the igaming industry, has released Pulse, an innovation in live betting that is set to completely revolutionise the sector.
Inspired by principles of gamification, Pulse (patent pending) is designed to deliver an entirely new in-play experience, achieving greater levels of engagement and brand loyalty across the global SBTech operator network.
Pulse puts the player at the heart of the action, enabling bet placement on a specific outcome in a live event within a defined time period, with the potential payout increasing as the timeline progresses.
The mobile-first feature is simple, elegant and effective. For example:
- The player bets on a goal to be scored in the next 30 seconds
- The time window is split into 3 periods of 10 seconds
- The payout rises with each new 10-second period
The group unveiled Pulse to executives from across the betting and gaming industry on Tuesday afternoon at the SBTech Stand S3-110 during the opening day of ICE 2018.
Having led the way in live betting for many years with features such as Fast Markets, Partial Cash Out and most recently Add2Bet and Action Betting, SBTech has now raised the in-play bar with the rollout of Pulse, the new centrepiece of its premium sportsbook offering.
After a year in which the company once again won Best Sportsbook Supplier and Best Live Betting provider at the leading industry awards ceremonies, entered key partnerships with a host of tier 1 operators and launched in a number of newly regulated markets, SBTech is now poised to leverage Pulse to achieve unprecedented success for its international partners.

Betbazar – the innovative technology company behind the world’s leading B2B iGaming marketplace – has this month revealed details of a recent partnership with GR8 Tech that will enable it to provide an impressive array of sportsbook solutions to customers.
With GR8 Tech being one of the industry’s most forward-thinking providers of sportsbook and iGaming platform software, the collaboration means all BETBAZAR clients will be able to choose from a wide range of products aimed at providing a more immersive online experience to players.
While GR8 Tech’s award-winning sportsbook platform, MTS (managed trading services), and streamlined iFrame will all be available via the BETBAZAR marketplace, the star of the show from an operator’s perspective will certainly be the company’s critically acclaimed sportsbook data feed.
GR8 Tech developed this innovative solution to empower iGaming companies to supply an enhanced sportsbook experience to their customers. The GR8 Feed delivers real-time odds, scores, and statistics on approximately 100,000 events from the industry’s most trusted providers.
Covering everything from esports to American football, the feed itself is seamlessly integrated through an API and can harness the power of artificial intelligence to deliver live alerts and a dashboard that breathes life into customers’ statistics. All of this is backed up by bulletproof security features and a dedicated support team that’s available 24/7, 365 days a year.
Given the data feed’s scope to improve clients’ revenue streams and the myriad benefits offered by all of the other GR8 Tech solutions, the partnership will further establish BETBAZAR’s marketplace as the go-to destination for customers’ iGaming needs. Both parties are already looking forward to the numerous opportunities the collaboration should bring.
Alex Iaroshenko, Chief Executive Officer at BETBAZAR, said: “It goes without saying that if you want to be the iGaming industry’s leading B2B marketplace, you have to be able to offer the best products available – and in GR8 Tech’s innovative range of sportsbook solutions, we believe we’ve found a selection of services that will empower operators to offer a best-in-class user experience.
“Covering everything from sportsbook platforms, managed trading services, and the company’s celebrated data feed, the GR8 Tech products available in our marketplace will ensure we remain at the forefront of innovation while also offering a comprehensive range of options to customers.”
Oleksandr Feshchenko, Deputy CEO & CRO at GR8 Tech, said: “At GR8 Tech, we really believe in the quality of our products and their potential to help operators stand out and maximise their revenue streams – so the next step is obviously to ensure they’re seen by as many customers as possible.
“By partnering with BETBAZAR and making our solutions available via their industry-leading B2B worldwide marketplace, we’ll be able to guarantee that even more prospective clients will have access to the services we offer. This will in turn allow us to empower even more operators to provide an enhanced experience to their end users.”
