According to their most recent Integrity Report, the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA) has observed a substantial rise in suspicious betting warnings in Q2 2024. There were 90 alerts this quarter, compared to 50 the year before and more than the 56 that were first reported in Q1 and later amended to 93.<\/p>\n

Esports is the industry leading the surge in suspicious notifications, up significantly from only one report during the same time the previous year. A prominent instance concerned questionable wagering on 68 esoccer matches that were played in Q1 and Q2, which led to a spike in esports alerts\u2014which currently make up half of all alerts in the first half of 2024.<\/p>\n

Integrity concerns in esports have long been an issue, prompting global efforts to combat fixing. The Esports Integrity Commission (ESIC) has formed partnerships worldwide, including a recent collaboration with the International Olympic Committee to enhance esports integrity. Last June, US Integrity and game data platform Grid teamed up to monitor integrity and suspicious activities at esports events.<\/p>\n

IBIA CEO Khalid Ali emphasized the organization\u2019s vigilance: \u201cWhile the increase in alerts may understandably draw attention, it should be noted that esports saw a significant reduction in annual alerts across IBIA\u2019s membership in 2023. The case again highlights the importance and effectiveness of customer account monitoring in the detection of suspicious betting and the protection of sporting events, consumers, and regulated betting markets.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Football and Table Tennis Alerts<\/h2>\n

Football ranked second in suspicious alerts with 16, followed by table tennis with 12. Together, esports,<\/a> football, and table tennis represented 84% of all Q2 alerts. Other sports with alerts included nine for tennis, and two for badminton. Additionally, handball, boxing, and padel each had one alert.<\/p>\n
