Tabcorp Launches Merged Pools, Powered by Nasdaq’s Longitude Technology
28 March 2019 - 9:00AM
Tabcorp Holdings Limited (ASX: TAH), Australia’s leading wagering
operator, and Nasdaq (Nasdaq: NDAQ) announced Tabcorp has
officially launched its new Trio betting type for pari-mutuel
customers. Powered by Nasdaq’s Longitude merged pool technology,
Trio allows customers to select three horses to finish first,
second and third in any order.
The Longitude technology offers an enhancement to the tote
betting system that allows multiple bet types to be merged into one
pool. In this scenario – Trio merging with the Trifecta pool –
allows customers to bet into pools with aggregated liquidity,
allowing for greater dividend stability and confidence.
Furthermore, this technology creates more certainty for customers
of their potential returns by providing the ability to see
approximate dividends on their Trifecta and Trio bets. “We’re
committed to bringing the best possible products to our customers
and believe Trio will be loved by punters,” said Andy Wright,
Executive General Manager of Wagering, TAB. “It’s the first of many
exciting opportunities made possible by our merged pool technology
and we look forward to unveiling more new bet types in the
future.”
“In launching Trio with our merged pool technology, Tabcorp is
providing its customers with an innovative betting type that makes
efficient use of existing liquidity and greater transparency for
the market,” said Scott Shechtman, Head of Longitude and New
Markets, Nasdaq. “We look forward to supporting Tabcorp’s
innovation as they continue to enhance the customer experience by
creating new pari-mutuel betting products over the coming
years.”
