BetMakers Upgrades and Extends William Hill Contract
BetMakers Technology Group has announced that Global Betting Services (BetMakers), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has extended and upgraded its commercial agreement with the William Hill Group.
BetMakers has signed as the preferred distribution partner and will continue to provide William Hill Group with existing wagering technology services, including Pricing and Trading solutions, and also provide additional access to its expanded racing products until 31 December 2022.
“Over the past two years we have made enormous strides in diversifying our racing content to include products from all over the globe, which was one of our key strategic ambitions. This success could not have happened without the excellent collaboration of William Hill Group Trading and BetMakers, who offer an incredible wealth of experience in International racing. This transition has seen William Hill increase its racing content significantly,” William Hill Director of Racing Mark Howarth said.
“This a significant and positive endorsement of the BetMakers business and we are delighted to be working with the William Hill Group, which as one of the world’s largest sports-betting and gaming companies has been one of BetMakers’ foundation clients outside of Australia. The extension and upgrading of BetMakers’ racing services and solutions to William Hill at an international level comes during a challenging time for wagering operators with the suspension of many sports globally,” Todd Buckingham, CEO of BetMakers Technology Group, said.
“BetMakers is buoyed by the support of our International and Australian customers as demand remains strong for racing products and services, which has seen our teams working overtime to continue to deliver racing from around the world to our extensive customer base,” Todd Buckingham added.
