The Pools moved its sportsbook and iGaming operations from FSB Technology to GiG’s platform in January as part of a wider technology overhaul. The operator said the system supports bet-builder features and dynamic odds, and that it is focused on rebuilding its UK brand and developing digital versions of its Pools games.
EveryMatrix chief executive Ebbe Groes said the supplier is rebuilding the technology it acquired with FSB rather than retaining it, as the company integrates the business. EveryMatrix bought FSB in an all-cash deal last July and later acquired Fantasma Games; Groes also said operator insourcing poses limited concern for suppliers with diversified markets.
