Kambi Group has entered into a multi-state sportsbook agreement with Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, one of the largest Indian Nations in the US.
Under the deal, Kambi will provide its sports betting technology and services to the Choctaw Nation’s gaming entities. This covers both online and retail sports betting.
The Choctaw Nation operates Choctaw Casinos & Resorts, which owns a network of gaming and hospitality destinations throughout south-eastern Oklahoma. Properties include its flagship casino location near to the Texas border.
The deal comes despite Oklahoma having not yet legalised sports betting and the placing of bets, either in person or online, remains illegal. This is despite the state having more than 130 Native American gaming and casino facilities.
Kambi, however, notes that the new agreement includes scope to expand into other states, both across online and retail, pending regulatory approvals.
