Sportradar chosen as official provider for Taiwan Sports Lottery

Sportradar has been selected as the official technology and services solution provider for the Taiwan Sports Lottery as part of a decade-long project.

Sportradar will join the consortium， which was awarded the third Sports Lottery Licence issued by the Taiwan Government’s Sports Administration in December 2022.

This organisation will operate the Taiwan Sports Lottery from the start of 2024 and is expected to run until 2033.

More than 2，600 retail Taiwan Sports Lottery outlets will be provided with Orako， the sportsbook and player account management solution from Sportradar.

Carsten Koerl， Sportradar CEO， said: “Our experience working with government-run lotteries around the world， coupled with our innovative technology and end-to-end Orako solution means Sportradar is well-placed to operate as part of a successful consortium for the Taiwan Sports Lottery.

“We’re able to bring the full range of betting services to deliver a high-quality and consistent experience for people playing the games， whether they’re in retail outlets，slots playing via the internet or on their mobile devices.”

In addition， Sportradar will deploy a local team to Taipei to support the business deal， providing operational knowledge to the Taiwan Sports Lottery.

Ted Lin， Taiwan Sports Lottery Company President， said: “Our aim is to redefine the sports betting experience and Sportradar has a full suite of technological solutions to help us achieve that.

“With a proven track record of working with established lottery providers globally， we look forward to harnessing the synergies with Sportradar to transform the sports betting landscape in Taiwan.”

This isn't the only development happening in the country though， as Intralot also secured a decade-long lottery deal with Taiwan’s Public Welfare Lottery.
