Digital Sports Tech (DST) has launched its Player Props and Bet Builder solutions in the US through a partnership with Rebet, a new free-to-play sportsbook. This collaboration supports Rebet’s platform, allowing users to engage in prop betting and same-game parlays (SGPs) without real money stakes.
Operating in 45 states, Rebet leverages DST’s technology to offer a range of betting options across US sports leagues and global soccer competitions.
The partnership introduces DST’s plug-and-play hosted solution to Rebet’s platform, facilitating a betting experience that includes real-time odds and player statistics.
DST’s system processes wagers through its proprietary platform, enabling Rebet to offer a selection of prop bets and SGPs while managing the operational aspects such as trading and risk management.
As we recently wrote in Gambling Insider magazine, Sweepstakes casinos have seen increased popularity in the US, filling the gap in regions where online gambling faces legal restrictions.
Good to know: The US sweepstakes market has become a notable alternative to traditional online gambling, particularly in states where iGaming is not fully regulated. Sweepstakes platforms, like Rebet, provide free access to betting options, often rewarding players with in-house currencies or loyalty points
This model allows players to participate in betting activities without traditional monetary stakes, a factor that has drawn attention from both users and regulators. According to industry reports, sweepstakes generated significant revenues during the pandemic and continue to attract players seeking risk-free betting options.
However, this growth has not gone unnoticed by regulatory bodies. The American Gaming Association (AGA) has raised concerns about the lack of oversight in the sweepstakes market, urging states to clarify legal frameworks to prevent misuse.
Rebet’s partnership with DST reflects this trend, positioning the platform to capitalise on the growing demand for sweepstakes betting. The collaboration aligns with recent developments, such as the launch of GiG’s SweepX platform, which further highlights the expanding interest in the sweepstakes sector.
