The British Columbia Lottery Corporation recently extended its ongoing partnership with Scientific Games. The company and its OpenTrade sports betting solution have helped BCLC provide reliable and flexible infrastructure to players.

Moving towards innovation

Players in Canada can only place wagers online via the official platform owned by the Crown corporation. Single-event sports betting is still not allowed in the country. However, there is a push to make this possible in recent times. However, players in British Columbia can get access to the advanced betting platform by Scientific Games.

The partnership extension will bring an enhanced activity for the players and provide them more comprehensive gameplay. The Managed Trading Services feature in OpenTrade will now be introduced to bettors in British Columbia. This is expected to enhance risk and liability management as well. To make the sports betting platform more diverse and keeping it optimized, the corporation will have access to several proprietary feed services.

It would allow players interested in betting on any sporting event across North America to do so hassle-free. They will get the option for in-play pricing as well as pre-match pricing. The solution will be covering all sports on a continental level.

OpenTrade’s advanced system

The OpenTrade system will provide advanced functionalities to the users. They will get access to more than 300,000 sporting events every year. The partnership with Scientific Games is expected to continue until 2024. Players may have to wait more before they could gain access to these features as many sporting events stand canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic. As soon as things start getting back to normal, they will have a chance to access all sporting events they like on the platform.

In October 2019, The Crown corporation also enhanced its relationship with Scientific Games. It introduced a new product called OpenSports. The platform also comes with scoreboards, promotions, and a user-friendly interface which improves the overall gameplay experience. Scientific Games have been working very closely with the leaders in the gaming industry in Canada.
