Canada – BET99 addition further strengthens global betting integrity body IBIA

BET99 has joined the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA), following the operator’s recent approval by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario and iGaming Ontario to offer online gambling services in the province. BET99 will now feed into IBIA’s global betting integrity monitoring and alert network, joining many other regulated betting operators, with IBIA members accounting for over C$160bn (€115bn) in global betting turnover per annum and nearly 50 per cent of all regulated commercial online betting.

André Bewerungen, Head of Sportsbook for BET99 said: “Joining IBIA, the world’s leading independent integrity monitor, is critical to our sportsbook strategy, in which trust, integrity and protection are prioritised for our Canadian customers.”

Khalid Ali, CEO of IBIA, said: “The move highlights BET99’s commitment to integrity and further cements IBIA as the leading integrity monitor in Ontario, with more than 75 per cent of licensed online betting operators having joined the association.”
