Hiring a sports betting app developer requires careful planning to ensure you get the right talent with the technical and industry-specific expertise. Here's a step-by-step guide:

✅ 1. Define Your Requirements

• Decide on platform(s): iOS, Android, Web, or all.
• List key features: live betting, odds management, payment gateways, user profiles, etc.
• Determine if you need a custom solution or a white-label product.

✅ 2. Choose the Type of Developer

• Freelancer: Cost-effective for small projects.
• In-house Team: Full control but higher long-term cost.
• Development Agency: Best for end-to-end service (e.g., Bettoblock, Innosoft Group).

✅ 3. Evaluate Skills & Experience


Look for:

• Proven experience in sports betting or fantasy sports apps.
• Knowledge of regulatory compliance (especially if you operate in regulated markets).
• Experience with APIs for odds feeds (e.g., Betfair, Sportradar).
• UI/UX skills for seamless user experience.
• Security best practices (e.g., for anti-fraud and secure payments).

✅ 4. Review Portfolios and Case Studies


Ask for:

• Live examples of sports betting platforms they've built.
• Tech stack used and results delivered.

✅ 5. Conduct Interviews & Technical Assessments

• Discuss approach to challenges like high concurrency during live events.
• Ask how they handle scalability and backend performance.
• Test for communication and responsiveness.

✅ 6. Start with a Trial or MVP


Before a full-scale project, start with a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) or a paid trial phase to evaluate their capabilities in real time.

✅ 7. Draft a Clear Contract


Include:

• Timeline
• Budget
• Scope of work
• Maintenance/support terms
• NDA & IP ownership

It is very convenient to use the application. I dealt only with the classic site before. I thought it was more reliable. But my friend convinced me that the bookmaker always makes the application as resistant to hacking as possible. Now I use the mobile version and am very happy.

I myself did not pay attention to where I go to the bookmaker from. But I want to make a comparison after your words)) I have had one regular bookmaker for a long time - https://1xbet.co.ke/ As far as I remember there is an app here. Please let me download it right now to check the differences in functionality.

Interesting topic! Hiring the right developer for a sports betting app is definitely a challenge—you need someone who really gets both the user experience and the strict regulations involved. Here in Lithuania, I’ve noticed that sites like https://ggbett.lt offer a great example of a smooth, reliable platform that works well for users and stays compliant. If you’re planning to develop an app, checking out how Lithuanian betting sites operate could give you some solid ideas on features and design. Just thought sharing this might help as you figure out what to focus on!
