Thanks to rapid growth and innovative ideas, the online bookmaker continually broadened its products. In May 2000 bet-at-home.com brought the live score service www.livescore.cc onto the market. In November 2005 came the online casino. One year later its own poker platform was launched and in June 2009 came the games section. On average, there are currently 14,000 bets placed on more than 50 different sports every day. There is also an ever-growing selection of live bets to ensure all the excitement of the games.
