Oklahoma and California Tribes Partner with PlaySqor to Launch Sports-Themed Betting App

The Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma, Anadarko-based Wichita and Affiliated Tribes, and The Chicken Ranch Tribe of Me-Wuk Indians of Jamestown will license the app and will be allowed to customize it with their own branding.

According to Vetnos, the app uses “first of its kind Class II sports-themed gaming technology.” The release went on to add:

“PlaySqor targets the casual fan betting on their favorite athletes on a fast, fun fixed-odds betting platform, strategically developed with a bingo engine.”

“We wanted to give tribes an option, … especially in places where (legalized) sports betting hasn’t been decided”

She also explained that users of the PlaySqor app will be able to wager as little as $1 on player matchups from a variety of sports, including pro and college football, basketball, soccer, hockey, golf and others.

Winning matchups are then placed on a bingo-style card and users can win cash based on rows or patterns of squares they fill much like tic tac toe or regular bingo.

Tribes will earn a percentage or commission with no portion of revenues going to the state.

“This is an exciting time for our tribal nation partners and Vetnos,” said Vetnos founder and Executive Chairman Joshua Berkowitz in a statement.
