The betting provider Tipico wants to show all World Cup games in a free stream. But there is still one requirement.

There is another way for football fans to watch the World Cup matches live. The betting provider Tipico says it offers its customers the opportunity to follow all games of the tournament in the USA, Mexico and Canada in a live stream in the app or on “tipico.de”. The surprising offer is in competition with Telekom, which acquired the TV rights to the World Cup for the German market from the world association Fifa and shows all games via the payment portal Magenta.TV.

“Only qualified users can follow the World Cup on Tipico in the live stream,” says a statement from the betting provider. “Qualified users are all users who have credit in their active Tipico account or who have placed a bet within the last 24 hours.” Tipico initially did not provide any information about the amount of the required betting stake or the technical details of the broadcast of the World Cup games.

The offer is possible because FIFA signed a contract in January with the British sports technology company Stats Perform as the official provider of betting data and streaming rights. According to Fifa, Stats Perform is a sales partner of live game streams for the customers of licensed sports betting providers. The moving images come from Stats Perform’s AI-powered Bet LiveStreams service.
