MST’s horse and greyhound racing fixed-odds turnkey solution is live in the retail network of Romanian operator Excelbet through a partnership with Sports Information Services.

MST will manage the collection of fixed-odds betting on SIS’ international offer across 360 Excelbet shops through its HGTS platform.

SIS houses over 68,000 horse and greyhound races from over 170 racecourses across five continents.
