Kambi signs sportsbook deal with Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort
Kambi Group has signed an agreement with Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort.
The deal will see Kambi provide its on-property and online sportsbook solutions direct to the premier Thoroughbred racetrack and casino in Arkansas. Kambi will support Oaklawn in launching its online sportsbook operations under the brand Oaklawn Sports, through the provision of its digital betting solutions.
“We’re very excited to strengthen our relationship with Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort and imminently extend our partnership into the mobile space,” said Kambi CEO and Co-Founder Kristian Nylén.
“The combination of Kambi’s advanced technology and Oaklawn’s reputation as one of the premier Thoroughbred tracks and casinos in the US makes this an enticing sports betting proposition.”
Oaklawn will also continue to offer Kambi’s retail sportsbook within its Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort. Through a partnership with Churchill Downs Incorporated, Kambi has provided Oaklawn with its retail sportsbook since 2021.
The new deal, however, replaces that agreement to see Kambi contract direct with Oaklawn for an extended period. Furthermore, Oaklawn has plans to expand its sports betting retail operations, “creating an exciting experience for its patrons during the Thoroughbred races.”
Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort General Manager Wayne Smith commented: “Oaklawn has been one of the most trusted brands in Arkansas for more than 100 years and we are excited to now offer our loyal customers yet another great amenity with our much-anticipated mobile wagering platform.
“We look forward to delivering the best online sports wagering experience in Arkansas.”
Located in Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas, Oaklawn offers slots, live table games, and sports betting year-round.
