Governor Polis and the Global Business Development Division of the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT) announced that leading global online sports betting company bet365 has selected Denver, Colorado for expansion. The UK-based company has opened its new U.S. headquarters at One Platte, or 1701 Platte Street, and plans to hire nearly 1000 employees.
“We are thrilled to welcome bet365 and nearly 1,000 jobs to Colorado and congratulate them on the grand opening of their new U.S. headquarters here. bet365 will create nearly 1,000 new good-paying jobs and as many as 300 this year that will help Coloradans earn a good living and support their families. We are confident they will quickly find that our great state is the best place to live, work and do business,” said Governor Polis.
Bet365 is known for excellence in technology innovation and shaping the gaming industry, as well as its commitment to employee well-being and creating a vibrant workplace culture. In Denver, the company renovated 120,000 square feet of office space and will focus on growing brand awareness within the US.
“Unveiling our US headquarters in beautiful downtown Denver represents a watershed moment in bet365’s North American journey. The Mile High City and its thriving business community is the ideal location to launch the next chapter in our company’s future, and we’re excited to create an industry-leading, innovative workplace in our new home,” said a bet365 spokesperson.
Within the first year, bet365 anticipates hiring over 300 employees. Positions within the new headquarters will include customer service operations, trading, software development and technology, with additional openings in marketing, legal, finance, facilities, human resources, and recruitment.
“We are confident that Colorado’s nation-leading quality of life and culture of innovation will make our state a great home for bet365, and believe this expansion is a win-win, including Colorado workers. bet365 is committed to creating good-paying jobs and a culture of excellence for their employees,” said OEDIT Executive Director Eve Lieberman.
The Colorado Economic Development Commission approved up to $14,055,942 in a performance-based Job Growth Incentive Tax Credit for the company over an eight-year period. These incentives are contingent upon bet365, referred to as Project Forge throughout the OEDIT review process, meeting net new job creation and salary requirements.
“We are excited to welcome bet365 to its U.S. headquarters’ new home, the Mile High City. bet365 has added 1,000 jobs to our economy and will add even more vibrancy to our downtown city center,” said Mayor Mike Johnston.
“We’re thrilled to welcome bet365 and their U.S. headquarters to Downtown Denver, marking a significant milestone in our region’s economic growth.

With the aid of OEDIT’s incentives investment, this project will not only create up to 1,000 high-quality jobs but also solidify Denver’s reputation as a hub for innovation and business. We look forward to the lasting impact this partnership will have on our community, driving both economic opportunity and vibrancy for Denver’s downtown for years to come,” said President of the Metro Denver EDC, Raymond H. Gonzales.

Bet365 to Go Live with Fixed Odds Horse Racing in New Jersey and Colorado Through BetMakers
BetMakers Technology Group Ltd announced that it has signed two-year market access and content agreements with bet365 relating to New Jersey and Colorado.
Under the agreements, bet365 will be licensed by BetMakers to offer fixed odds bets on thoroughbred horse racing to bet365 customers within New Jersey. Bet365 will also be licensed to distribute BetMakers’ thoroughbred racing content to bet365 customers in New Jersey and both thoroughbred and harness racing in Colorado. Bet365 will pay BetMakers a “Market Access Fee” based on a percentage of all fixed odds bets placed in New Jersey on all thoroughbred racing events it offers to its customers and a “Content Fee” based on a percentage of all fixed odds bets placed in New Jersey and Colorado on applicable BetMakers Global Racing Network content. The contracts will run for two years.
The structure of the market access agreement allows bet365 to seek BetMakers’ approval to offer fixed odds wagering on third party global thoroughbred racing content to its New Jersey customers from the many rights holders globally. Bet365 will be required to pay BetMakers the Market Access Fee in respect of online fixed odds wagering in New Jersey on all thoroughbred racing content, regardless of whether that content is provided by BetMakers or a third party.

“The sports betting market in the US is starting to mature and the interest from operators in horse racing as a product is expected to become even stronger. The high frequency of horse racing can deliver high engagement and high margin returns to operators. We believe the opportunity for both BetMakers and the racing industry more broadly to be significant in the long term.
“We are always actively working with rights holders to deliver opportunities for sustainable industry returns and open new opportunities in expanding growth markets. This opportunity in the US ticks both of those boxes and we look forward to helping our partners build out a global race book.”
