A sports betting platform that settles bets while you sleep.
Sports betting at scale is one of the hardest real-time systems to engineer — live data, regulatory KYC, payments, and bet settlement that can't get a single number wrong. We built FanFunded to handle all of it, around the clock.

PROBLEM
Three systems have to be flawless. None of them are forgiving.
Sports betting platforms have to do three things flawlessly: pull accurate real-time scores and market data, verify users for regulatory compliance, and settle bets without errors. Get any one wrong and you're either losing money, losing trust, or losing your license.
Kirt needed a platform that handled all three — and stayed online during high-traffic game moments when every other betting site is creaking.
Real-time data integration
ESPN API for live scores and news. OddsJam for market odds and parlay lines. Continuously synced and surfaced to bettors instantly.
Sumsub KYC verification
Regulatory-grade identity verification built into onboarding. Every user verified before they can place a bet.
Multi-channel payments
Stripe, Bitcoin, and direct checkout — all integrated with secure withdrawal flows and account audit trails.
Parlay simulation & bet management
Parlay juice calculations, manual regrade, profit withdrawal, odds logs, account analytics — full bettor toolkit.
System heartbeat for bet settlement
Continuous monitoring of odds and game outcomes. If something looks wrong, the system catches it before money moves.
