Deltatre adds sport-related functionality to AXIS

Staff Writer

Deltatre, the global leader in fan-first video experiences, has announced the development of a new suite of sport-focused features and functionality within its user experience (UX) management tool, AXIS, to support leagues, teams and federations. 

AXIS is a targeted UX management console and suite of multi-platform Reference Apps. For many years, AXIS has been the go-to product for OTT services, including BritBox, Rogers Sports & Media and DR.

AXIS empowers an OTT service’s editorial team, reducing churn and boosting personalisation and monetisation options.

This latest evolution of AXIS brings Deltatre’s expertise to life, offering sports-focused OTT providers the ability to offer their users uniquely different ways of following specific leagues, tournament rounds, teams or players. 

By putting the power in the hands of knowledgeable editorial staff, clients consistently report increased engagement and reduced churn from their OTT offering. 

Deltatre has added the ability for broadcasters and rights holders to adapt their services, so that sports content such as competitions, events, teams, and athletes can be promoted out-of-the-box, with dedicated templates enabling easy discoverability of live and catch-up sport video content. 

In addition, a new personalisation feature allows users to follow their favourite team or player so they never miss a moment of the action. 

Using a simple drag-and-drop interface, AXIS helps editorial teams control every element of their OTT video service, including design, navigation, promotions, page layout, and content. 

This builds on an already extensive set of core AXIS functionality that includes the following features:

• A drag-and-drop management system: Enables any content producer to make real-time changes to an OTT service without needing to touch any code – helping to boost engagement and monetisation opportunities. 

• Smart lists: Streamline efficiency with ‘smart’ lists of content that combine manually curated and rules-based content.

• Advanced Segmentation Tags: Target your audience by demographic type, device, location and so on. 

• Personalisation:  Dynamically surface related content that you know your users are interested in, based on their followed items. 

• Page and row templates: Ready-to-use templates and row types let you create and configure detail pages for your competition, event, team, and other assets, that users can navigate to from anywhere in their app. 

• Monetisation options: Boost revenue potential in a non-intrusive way, by adding brand sponsored rows or banners directly into the UI. 

Gilles Mas, President of Video Experiences, Deltatre, said: “As a long-standing streaming technology provider to leading OTT platforms across sport and entertainment, Deltatre is uniquely positioned to understand the complexities and differences in the way fans and users engage with and consume different content. 

“We know how important it is to combine a greater user experience with clear, actionable audience data. Truly understanding your customers, and giving an editorial team the tools to act on that knowledge, is key to maximising engagement and reducing costs and churn.”

AXIS complements Deltatre’s comprehensive end-to-end offering across sports and entertainment, which includes its OTT player DIVA, the world’s most powerful sports publishing platform FORGE, and mtribes, a SaaS platform for real-time, data-driven UX targeting.

TSG Hoffenheim extends partnership with SAP until 2030

TSG Hoffenheim has confirmed a long-term extension of its partnership with SAP, one of the most established and technology-driven sponsorships in German football. The renewed agreement, running through to 2030, will see SAP continue as main sponsor, front-of-shirt partner, and official technology partner — while expanding its involvement across the women’s and academy teams.

This extension highlights the strong commitment from both parties and reinforces the growing importance of tech-focused partnerships in shaping modern football strategy and infrastructure.

Among the Bundesliga’s Longest-Standing Sponsorships

SAP has featured on Hoffenheim’s kits since the 2013/14 season, making it one of the Bundesliga’s three longest-running front-of-shirt sponsors. The expanded deal includes:

  • Continued main sponsorship of the men’s first team
  • Sleeve sponsorship for the TSG Hoffenheim women’s team from the 2025/26 season
  • Shirt sponsorship for the club’s academy sides (U16–U19)
  • Branding on training gear and matchday apparel
  • In-stadium branding, including façade signage and TV-facing boards
  • Naming rights to specific stands and hospitality areas at Hoffenheim’s home ground

Managing Director of Marketing and Sales at TSG Hoffenheim, Tim Jost, underlines the club’s strong commitment to SAP and the future of their joint venture.

“Two strong brands from the region are stepping into the future together. We are delighted to extend our intensive partnership with SAP for the long term.

“SAP’s commitment goes far beyond that of a main and shirt sponsor. SAP’s technical expertise is the basis for our role as an innovation leader. In addition, the extension shows once again that TSG have a loyal partner in SAP, who by agreeing to a long-term extension are sending a strong signal of trust in times of change,” he said via press release.

This renewal comes at a time when stability and strategic partnerships are more important than ever in football sponsorship, especially given evolving economic conditions and club ownership models.

A Broader Partnership Beyond Branding

SAP will continue as Hoffenheim’s official technology partner, providing data integration, analytics, and digital performance tools to support both sporting and business operations.

For Hoffenheim, the agreement extends beyond financial support — SAP’s involvement helps position the club as one of the Bundesliga’s most innovation-driven organisations, with projects spanning player tracking, injury prevention, and fan experience enhancements.

The partnership also reflects a strong regional connection, both SAP and Hoffenheim are based in Baden-Württemberg, fostering shared community values and a regional identity.

A Model of Stability and Regional Collaboration

This extension exemplifies a regionally grounded sponsorship with global impact. SAP, a multinational company with over 108,000 employees, remains a locally rooted partner in Walldorf, just 20 kilometres from Hoffenheim’s home base.

From a commercial standpoint, this ongoing alliance strengthens TSG Hoffenheim’s reputation as a long-term, values-aligned sponsorship platform for premium, tech-focused brands.
