PvPro, an e-sports platform for CS:GO games, tournaments and leagues, will see all audiovisual streams and data from its upcoming competitions distributed by Sportradar on an exclusive, worldwide basis.
In addition, Sportradar will be employing its Fraud Detection System across PvPRO competitions.
To protect PvPRO competitions, Sportradar’s Integrity Services, which is one of the founding members of the E-Sports Integrity Coalition, will monitor betting patterns from all relevant bookmakers and operators around the world in order to identify suspicious betting activity.
Stamos Venios, PvPRO CEO, said: “Securing Sportradar’s support and expertise was really important to the credibility and distribution of the [Electronic Sports Global Tour] and as we start this journey, we could not be happier to have Sportradar by our side.”
James Watson, head of e-sports at Sportradar, added: “Tournament organisers in the e-sports ecosystem are getting savvier about the opportunities and threats that they now face as interest and investment grows.
“Dealing with Stamos and his team has been a pleasure, as they really get what is at stake and we are really proud that they chose to trust us, our experience and our relationships to help them take the ESG Tour and their growing competition portfolio to the next level.”
