flutter.com Limited
 PROFILE
flutter.com isn't afraid to bet on the Internet. The company, which takes its name from British slang for "a small wager," connects users willing to propose a bet with those looking to place wagers. Its registered gamblers can make their bets on anything they choose and can set their own odds. The site holds the wagers in escrow and acts as an arbiter in disputes between users. It also takes a small percentage of each bet. flutter.com was founded as InsightMarket by co-presidents Josh Hannah and Vince Monical, both Americans, in 1999. They established the business in the UK to avoid the patchwork of US gambling laws. The company is backed by venture capital from Chase Episode 1, Benchmark Capital, and UBS Capital.
