BETBY, the industry-leading B2B sportsbook supplier, has released “10 World Cup Insights for the Next 10 Months of Football”—a study of what changed in football betting behaviour between the 2022 and 2026 World Cup edition, and what it asks of sportsbooks over the season now underway.

Stefanos Karakidis, Business Development Director at BETBY, says:

Most operators came out of the World Cup with better numbers, but few could explain why. The majority viewed the tournament primarily as an acquisition opportunity, when that was arguably the least interesting aspect of it. The tournament reached four out of five of our players, yet generated less than half of all bets. It was everywhere, but it wasn’t everything on the sportsbook. That’s why we set out to uncover the insights that many operators might otherwise overlook.
