SKY RACING WORLD TO USE AMTOTE AS ITS COMMINGLING BETTING PLATFORM FOR ACCESS TO TABCORP’S AUSTRALIAN GREYHOUND POOLS
AmTote International has entered into a breakthrough, multi-year agreement with Sky Racing World, a subsidiary of Tabcorp, Australia’s biggest wagering and entertainment company.
The deal will see AmTote become Sky Racing World’s wagering platform for facilitating international commingling into Australian racing hosts’ pools for greyhound racing initially. AmTote is a market-leading product from 1/ST TECHNOLOGY, racing’s largest and most innovative gaming technology company, and the leading wagering technology company in North America.
Sky Racing World remains the premier digital source for live video broadcasts, data and premium tipping content from the Southern Hemisphere’s leading racing markets. Furthermore, it retains predominantly exclusive rights to distribute live racing from Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, South Korea, Singapore, and Japan (NAR) to territories across the Americas and the Caribbean.
The terms of the contract accordingly enable AmTote to extend its global wagering network for Australian racing, allowing for the commingling of tote pools to continue and flourish. This will support the growth of tote pool liquidity for bettors across these jurisdictions, who collectively wagers billions of dollars in turnover every year.
Keith Johnson, Chief Revenue Officer at 1/ST TECHNOLOGY, said: “1/ST TECHNOLOGY and AmTote are proud to expand our ongoing relationship with Sky Racing World and Tabcorp. We look forward to collectively facilitating our broader wagering network for the Australian greyhound racing industry, as well as for the benefit of North American and global wagering operators where there remains significant demand for this racing content.”
David Haslett, CEO of Sky Racing World, added: “Sky Racing World is looking forward to expanding its menu of premium international racing content in North America with the introduction of commingling on Australian greyhound racing. As a key wagering partner, 1/ST TECHNOLOGY and AmTote have supported the growth of international racing in the marketplace, while the strength of their wagering platform makes it the technology of choice to facilitate commingling into Australian pools, helping drive growth and diversified revenues for the Australian greyhound sector.”
1/ST TECHNOLOGY’s world-class products, led by AmTote, rank among the most trusted names across gaming, technology, horse and greyhound racing. AmTote’s technology and services already play host to the majority of racetrack operators in North America – and are currently in operation at Santa Anita Park, Gulfstream Park, Saratoga Race Course, Belmont Park, Aqueduct and Woodbine, alongside many others, processing and settling more than $18 billion in pari-mutuel and fixed-odds wagering around the world each year.
