The Familiarity Bias & The Benefits Of Providing Localised Sports Content | Altenar

Share this article

Altenar, a sportsbook software provider, explores how the concept of familiarity bias can benefit operators who are either seeking a new provider or beginning their sportsbook journey. 


As a foundational concept in behavioral science, familiarity bias is especially relevant in sports betting because it suggests that players are more likely to wager on games, leagues, and events they already know well. 


By understanding your players’ existing interest in specific sports, you can build a bettor-centric platform that becomes a market leader in engagement and satisfaction. 


Since familiarity bias plays a key role in how often and how much bettors wager, your success as an operator may depend on how well you understand the local market landscape and player behavior.
