The Arizona Gaming Division (AGD) has formally approved bet365 for a sports wagering permit. This authorization enables bet365 to collaborate with the Ak-Chin Indigenous Group and establish operations within the state. This determination is in complete accordance with Arizona’s current gaming statutes and regulations.
Previously, in June, the AGD declared the commencement of applications for sports betting licenses. This encompassed a designated license for Arizona’s Native American nations and two others for sports organizations that meet the criteria outlined in the Arizona Sports Franchise definition (as specified in A.R.S. § 5-1301(7)).
A limited two-week period was allotted for submissions, spanning from August 1st to August 15th. Exclusively, those who furnished all requisite materials within that timeframe were evaluated.
In related bet365 developments, the company is poised to initiate operations in Kentucky within the upcoming month. This expansion will mark their sixth state, augmenting their existing presence in Ohio, Virginia, New Jersey, Iowa, and Colorado. Kentucky inhabitants are currently eligible to pre-register.
This venture into Kentucky follows the state’s proclamation of issuing provisional sports betting licenses. bet365 capitalized on this opportunity by securing a multi-year agreement with Sandy’s Gaming and Racing. This alliance empowers patrons at Sandy’s Gaming and Racing in Kentucky to engage in sports betting directly through the bet365 application.
