Sports data specialists Genius Sports have inked a “transformational” deal as the exclusive provider of UK football data to sports betting operators.

On Thursday, Genius Sports announced that it had struck an exclusive “multi-year” deal with Football DataCo, the data rights-holder of the Premier League, English Football League and Scottish Professional Football League. The deal enshrines Genius Sports as the new official data supplier of live UK football data to the global sports betting sector.

Neither the exact length nor the financial terms of the deal were disclosed. Regardless, the deal is something of a coup for Genius Sports and its sports betting offshoot Betgenius, as they replace rivals Perform Group, which had a deal with Football DataCo dating back to 2013.

Genius Sports Group CEO Mark Locke hailed the deal as “transformational” for his firm, given that the 4,000 matches played each season with Football DataCo’s partner leagues represent “some of most valuable sports betting content in the world.”
