Matchbook Betting Exchange is delighted to announce the release of their new multi-currency platform. This will allow all customers to bet in Euro, Sterling, Canadian and Hong Kong Dollars, as well as the previously available US Dollars. Since being newly acquired in early 2011, there has been heavy investment in the product and this is the first of a number of exciting announcements, including a fully functional mobile application, to come in the next few months.
Commenting on the announcement, Andrew Pantling, CEO of Matchbook.com said:
“We are very happy to announce that all customers of Matchbook will now be able to bet in currencies other than USD. Since March 2011 , when the company was newly acquired, the growth we have achieved has surprised even us. This further confirms our belief that the industry is crying out for a low commission, betting exchange alternative which delivers value back to the punter.”
These are exciting times for Matchbook and sports gamblers alike, and will allow us to expand on the growth we’ve already seen, as well as adding to our position as the number 1 place to bet NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB.”
Matchbook Notes for Editors:
Matchbook is a revolutionary sports betting exchange designed for the professional and savvy sports bettor. Matchbook has one main goal, to return the maximum amount of value to the punter
Matchbook’s liquid markets and low commissions offer all punters a competitive advantage over betting with a regular bookmaker or other betting exchange alternatives.
Having been in operation since 2004, Matchbook has the most significant pool of US sports liquidity available. The company was acquired in 2011 by a group of investors with background in the UK sports wagering and banking sectors.
Their goal, to become a similarly significant player in the European and Asian betting markets, begins with the launch of a multi-lingual and multi-currency site, alongside mobile applications, in early 2012.
Matchbook.com is licensed by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission and holds an additional license from the government of Antigua and Barbuda.
