BetFair Bookmaker Company Overview

Betfair has been an international powerhouse for sports gambling since 2000 in the sports betting exchange arena but fairly new competitor in the global fixed-odds Sportsbook marketplace opening this service in 2013. They added their fixed-odds sportsbook to enhance their customers’ sports gambling experience and have succeeded in delivering recreational excitement for players in synergistic ways between the betting exchange and sportsbook.

Betfair’s roots go back to the year 1999 when a professional gambler names Andrew “Bert” Black teamed up with Edward Wray in England to form “The Sporting Exchange”. These two innovative pioneers went on to transform their creation to become “the BetFair Betting Exchange” in 2000. The innovative aspect of this service was the simple concept of enabling customers to bet at odds set by themselves or by other customers rather than the traditional bookmaker and/or sportsbook.

Fast forward to today and Betfair enjoys a position as one of the world’s largest international online sports betting providers in the world with over 950,000 customers from more than 100 countries.
