GRID Becomes Pinnacle’s Esports Data Partner Through a Newly Signed Deal

Pinnacle’s Trading Director, Marco Blume, and GRID CEO, Moritz Maurer, have together announced a partnership between these two companies.

This new venture sees GRID becoming the official esports partner to the former.

Through this deal, Pinnacle is granted access to the company’s esports data to enhance its esports betting products. Aside from this, GRID will also act as a B2B partner through the promotion of Pinnacle Solution to its betting product clientele.

Two Cents

Representatives from Pinnacle say that they have gone from only being bookmakers offering esports to having all the big names posting markets across different titles in the last few years.

“We’ve gone from being one of the only bookmakers offering esports to having all the big names posting markets across different titles in the last few years. There’s no question that the quality of our product is head and shoulders above anything else out there but we know we can’t stand still and we have to work hard to stay at the top. This deal with GRID is an important part of the esports evolution at Pinnacle. We have a reputation to maintain and thanks to the quality of data that GRID can provide, we’re only going to keep improving,” Blume said.

Maurer added that there is no secret as to its latest partner’s expertise across traditional sports and track record as a pioneer in esports betting. He said that aligning themselves with such a powerful and well-respected brand pays tribute to the work they have carried out to date in executing on GRID’s vision of building a scalable data infrastructure across the most relevant esports titles whilst hitting the mark in regards to the quality of the data solutions they provide.

He continued: “Combining an unrivalled market share in official data assets with Pinnacle’s trading powerhouse is an exciting proposition to bring to the market.”
