Benzinga Names Wagr A 'Challenger' Award Recipient At Inaugural BZ Titans Sports Betting Event

A leading fantasy sports and sports betting company has been honored with the "Challenger" award from Benzinga at the first-ever BZ Titans Sports Betting conference.

What's A Challenger?

The Challenger Award is reserved for innovators and upstarts disrupting the industry of sports betting. A jury evaluated key criteria including innovation, execution, financial performance and compliance. 
The Decision
Wagr is a company innovating the sports betting landscape. Instead of a traditional sportsbook, Wagr allows players to bet against fellow players in a social media setting, instead of a sportsbook setting.

Much like nearly 85% of all U.S. sportsbooks, odds and lines are provided by Sportradar, an international sports data analysis firm.

Wagr is owned by Yahoo.
