Matchbook plans UK prediction-market launch under existing licence

Licences & markets

Matchbook plans to launch a sports-focused prediction-market product in the UK next month, reportedly using its existing Gambling Commission licence. The company also plans to provide the technology as a white-label product for easyBet; its US partner, RSBIX, has applied to the CFTC for approval to launch an exchange.

The UK launch will use Matchbook’s existing licence, while its US partner still seeks regulatory approval for an exchange.
