Malta-based platform provider Digitain has secured exclusive betting rights for the first in a series of table football tournaments set to be run in collaboration with the Table Football Federation of Armenia.

As part of the deal, Digitain’s team will provide real-time odds in collaboration with a major national operator to deliver the first worldwide table football match that offers live betting. The game consists of 400 matches over the space of a week, according to the Armenian organisers. 

Broadcast in a state-of-the-art studio, Digitain is also set to live stream the event in conjunction with other international sporting fixtures, with plans to collaborate with upcoming international tournaments to take its sport worldwide.

Harutyun Vardanyan, COO at Digitain, said: “At Digitain, we’re all about delivering the next generation of sportsbook by ensuring our partners are always ahead of the game when it comes to differentiating themselves from the competition.

“We are delighted to become the world’s first supplier to offer live odds and streaming for table football to an international audience.  The sky is the limit for this sport’s untapped potential, so we are proud to lead the way in this exciting new vertical.

"Players far and wide consider themselves to be masters of the sport and we are confident that our offering will do wonders for attracting even more players given its global popularity.”
