The records
theScore’s two penalties concern how it treats players: in 2025 it failed to step in with a patron who lost about $230,000 in eight months, and in 2026 it refused two cash-out offers a player had accepted on a parlay that went on to lose. Sports Interaction has no AGCO penalty on record.
