Sports

Hopp.it revolutionizes sports betting by focusing on micro-moments within live events rather than traditional full-match outcomes. Our sports markets capture the natural rhythm and unpredictability of live sporting action through rapid-fire opportunities that adapt to each sport's unique characteristics.

Universal Market Categories

Time-Based Opportunities

Every sport has natural timing patterns that create betting windows. Whether it's goals in football, points in basketball, or rounds in boxing, we create "Next [event] within X minutes" markets with timeframes that adapt to each sport's typical pace and scoring frequency.

Momentum & Flow Markets

Sports naturally create momentum shifts and tactical phases. We identify these patterns across different sports: possession control in football, scoring runs in basketball, service games in tennis, or power plays in hockey. These markets provide betting opportunities even during low-scoring periods.

Player Performance Windows

Rather than full-game statistics, we focus on performance within specific phases or timeframes. This could be shots on target in a 15-minute football period, successful passes in a basketball quarter, or successful serves in a tennis set - adapting to each sport's relevant metrics.

Situational & Context Markets

Every sport has high-impact situations: set pieces in football, free throws in basketball, penalty shots in hockey, or break points in tennis. Our system recognizes these contextual moments across different sports and creates targeted betting opportunities.
