The association&#8217;s integrity monitoring platform is now available in regulated sports betting markets in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This move was a long time coming as most of the brands that currently operate in North America are already members of the association. To put this into context, <strong>IBIA already monitors the integrity of over half of the United States online sports betting market.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2019 when it rebranded to reflect its focus on the international sports betting scene, IBIA has had some very ambitious plans. While some of its plans were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realmoneygambling.com\/news\/us-posts-record-nationwide-commercial-gaming-revenue-in-q3-2021\/\">disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic<\/a>, the association is slowly bouncing back with its plans to extend across several key markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"a-robust-resume\">A Robust Resume<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While the United States and Canada both have some solid mechanisms in place when it comes to sports betting integrity monitoring, IBIA brings in a lot more expertise. The organization prides itself on having over <strong>15 years&#8217; worth of experience in the sector<\/strong>. This makes it a unique partner for sports betting operations and regulators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>&#8220;We\u2019ve built up a reputation and credibility in this ecosystem \u2013 we\u2019ve built up relationships with sports and regulators. More importantly, we have a global dataset that we can really bring to the US. The US is really the missing piece with our members now moving there and entering that market. We will have a much more joined-up approach when it comes to integrity and reporting alerts as our members start taking bets from that market.&#8221;<\/p><cite>IBIA Chief Executive Khalid Ali<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IBIA has received endorsements from key operators in North America including <a href=\"http:\/\/DraftKings, FanDuel and Caesars brace for Super Bowl bettinghttps:\/\/adage.com \u203a Special Report: Super Bowl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FanDuel and DraftKings<\/a>, two of the biggest sports betting brands in the United States. The association now also has licenses in states like New York, New Jersey, Wyoming, Arizona, Colorado and Michigan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"a-few-setbacks\">A few Setbacks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As it stands, IBIA has made quite a bit of progress. However, there are some complications that the company has to deal with. Most notably, the process of procuring a vendor minor license has slowed down the expansion of the association. To make it even worse, some of the licensing requirements vary from state to state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite all this, it seems like the IBIA&#8217;s arrival has been welcomed by many of the stakeholders in US gambling. Many states already require sports betting operators within their borders to be part of IBIA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Amid the massive explosion of the online sports betting market in North America, the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA) has recently extended its footprint to the US and Canada.
