The new agreement means that the group now has access to 12 states through its flagship brand Unibet although it has only launched in three of those states — New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Indiana. The deal will run for an initial 10 years with an option to extend and includes online and retail sports betting, and iGaming.
Speaking of the latest expansion, Manuel Stan, SVP US, Kindred Group said:
Kindred Gains Market Access to Arizona & California“Going west is truly exciting and the partnership with Quechan Tribe of the Fort Yuma Indian Reservation will grant Kindred access to two key states in the US market. California is likely to become one of the largest markets in the world, with yearly revenues expected to pass $2bn while Arizona, is expected to reach $200m yearly sports betting revenues at maturity. Securing early access to these two key states puts us in a great position to prepare a successful launch together with a great partner with a strong local presence”
