Hub88 signs exclusive deal to aggregate Marbles live race games
Aggregator platform Hub88 has become the first partner to distribute live marble racing games from provider Marbles to its network of operators.
Hub88 has agreed an exclusive aggregation partnership with Marbles, a live marble race game provider, giving its operator network access to round-the-clock marble racing content, the company announced on 16 January 2025.
Marbles produces marble race tracks filmed at a live studio using multiple camera angles triggered by sensors to follow the leading balls. Each race lasts between 20 and 60 seconds and features eight equally sized and weighted marbles. Players bet by selecting which marble they expect to win before watching the race unfold.
Rollout plans
According to Hub88, Marbles intends to introduce more than 20 races during 2025. Hub88’s operator clients will be the first to gain access to the technology, ahead of a wider rollout to other operators later in the year.
Hub88 said the format is aimed at mobile-first players looking for quick, engaging betting experiences, with social features designed to build a community around the races.
Executive comment
Ollie Castleman, Managing Director of Hub88, said the partnership reflects the company’s aim to give operators standout content that helps them differentiate from competitors, adding that the live marble races allow players to experience varied tracks and obstacles.
Sam Jones, Founder and CEO of Marbles, said marble racing has long attracted large audiences online but had previously lacked a live, bettable format. He said the exclusive partnership with Hub88 offers an opportunity to bring a new type of live game to the iGaming market.
The announcement was issued by Square in the Air on behalf of Hub88.
