PointsBet, a premier global sportsbook operator, announced last week that it has entered an exclusive primary skin agreement with Kansas Crossing Casino in Pittsburg, Kansas. The agreement will allow PointsBet to provide retail and online sports wagering in the Sunflower State, contingent upon obtaining the necessary regulatory licenses.
Kansas Crossing is located in the heart of the “Four States” area in southeast Kansas, just a short distance from the borders of Oklahoma, Missouri and Arkansas. PointsBet and Kansas Crossing will work in tandem to build out a multi-faceted sports entertainment venue, which will include a sports bar, multi-screen video and odds display wall, additional casino gaming options and on-site viewing parties for major sporting events, providing the state with a premium sportsbook option in addition to PointsBet’s online wagering product.
“PointsBet is proud to partner with Kansas Crossing and gain the opportunity to provide the state with a top-notch retail and online sportsbook,” said Johnny Aitken, PointsBet USA’s chief executive officer. “The team behind Kansas Crossing represents one of the best in U.S. gaming, and we look forward to many years of great success working together and introducing new clients to a truly innovative, customer-first experience from start-to-finish.”
“Kansas Crossing is excited to join forces with PointsBet to develop a world-class retail sportsbook at the Casino and launch online sports wagering in Kansas,” said Doug Fisher, vice president and general manager of Kansas Crossing. “We are certainly aligned in our efforts to provide the great citizens of the Sunflower State with the premium product they deserve, and we look forward to doing so with the PointsBet team.”
Launched in the U.S. in January 2019, PointsBet is a rapidly growing sportsbook with a bettor-friendly approach.
