There is no shortage of innovative products being released by BetVictor.
Last week the UK bookmaker launched BetVictor Smart Cards with an aim to take a stronger position in the online horse racing market.
So what makes BetVictor Horse Racing Smart Cards so different?
For the first time ever, you will have access to the latest up to date information from the paddock with smart cards – direct to your mobile.
In the past horse racing race cards were released just 24 hours in advance and remained static until the time of the race.
With BetVictor Smart Cards you get on-track insight from jockey and trainers, along with on-the-day insider tips and dynamic analytical data.
Smart Cards will also highlight any trends in betting activity, so you can make an informed decision and improve your chances.
Following the news, Product Designer – Adam Barnes was keen to discuss the key benefits:
“Traditional racecards remain static and do not update as the day’s racing unfolds. This can result in racecards displaying stale, inaccurate or misleading information. This was the opportunity which we focused on.”
“With Smart Cards we will display a selection of smart stats which are delivered dynamically to our racecards. Each morning, we will analyse the day’s races and deliver the most eye-catching statistics which will give users a better understanding on a horse’s chance in a race.”
BetVictor Smart Card Key Features
Some of features include an alert if a jokey and trainer with a higher than average strike rate team-up.
In this instance the smart card would alert you for that particular race and the number of races they are involved in.
Other live up to date information can be if there is a last minute jockey changes or changes to weather conditions which may or may not favour certain horses.
If in the meeting a jockey or trainer has won two or more races the smart cards will flag this to the user.
