The NHL will use Sportradar’s FDS to monitor global gaming activity and trends across more than 550 operators worldwide for all regular and post-season games.

“While we have the utmost confidence in the integrity of our sports and our games, Sportradar’s FDS provides an additional layer of security and protection,” said NHL commissioner Gary Bettman.

Sportradar’s Andreas Krannich added: “Our award-winning FDS monitors over 100,000 matches across 12 sports around the world each year and we are delighted the NHL has chosen this system, which oversees all relevant operators and markets, to bolster its integrity defences.”
