PointsBet: Arizona Market Access Update

Published

on

 

PointsBet Holdings Limited has announced that Cliff Castle Casino Hotel, a Subordinate Economic Organization of the federally recognized Yavapai-Apache Nation (Cliff Castle), with whom its wholly-owned subsidiary PointsBet Arizona LLC had entered into an agreement to pursue online sports betting market access in Arizona, did not receive a sports betting license awarded by the Arizona Department of Gaming (the ADG) on Friday, 27 August 2021.

Online sports betting was legalized by Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey in April 2021, allowing for up to 20 sports betting licenses (10 for professional sports teams and 10 for tribes in Arizona).

The ADG has not provided any further information as to why Cliff Castle was not selected. Whilst disappointed that Cliff Castle was not awarded a license, PointsBet continues to assess market access opportunities in Arizona.

BETER, the acclaimed provider of live streaming, data, and odds for esports and sports, has expanded into a new US state following the receipt of the Event Wagering Supplier License from the Arizona Department of Gaming.

The supplier license enables BETER to provide its quick-betting content, featuring live streams and live data, to licensed operators in the state for the first time, which includes its exclusive ESportsBattle tournaments and Setka Cup table tennis series.

Both are currently active with the tier-one operator bet365, which has been a long-term partner of BETER. Arizona marks the seventh state where BETER is licensed as the company expands its presence in both the state and the broader US market. BETER holds certifications in North Carolina, New Jersey, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, and Colorado as well.

BETER provides round-the-clock live streaming, instantaneous data, and highly precise odds for over 700,000 rapid events each year, offering as many as 50 markets per event with an average operator margin exceeding 7.5%.

Its esports portfolio features ESportsBattle tournaments that showcase eFootball, eBasketball, eHockey, and eTennis, and its sports portfolio includes the Setka Cup series along with the BSKT Cup basketball league.

Gal Ehrlich, CEO of BETER, said: “Securing regulatory approval in Arizona is a pivotal moment in our ongoing US expansion strategy. This marks our seventh state, and we are incredibly proud to continue our trajectory of growth in one of the world’s most dynamic betting markets.

“Our mission has always been to provide operators with the most reliable, high-velocity content available, and receiving the green light from the regulator is a testament to the integrity and quality of our offering.

“We are thrilled to kick off this journey with bet365 and look forward to bringing our industry-leading esports and sports content to even more Arizona players in the near future.”

Valeriia Tarchynska, Chief Legal Officer at BETER, added: “We are proud to announce that we have successfully completed the process of obtaining the Event Wagering Supplier License in the state of Arizona.

The process took us a total of eight months and was one of the most challenging journeys for our team. However, thanks to the dedication and expertise of our legal and integrity teams, we successfully navigated it.

This milestone strengthens our commitment to delivering reliable, compliant, and transparent products to our clients.

“We continue to actively work on securing regulatory approvals in key jurisdictions, including Ohio, Kentucky, and Illinois, among others.”

Bettors in Arizona wagered approximately $822 million on sports and events in December 2025, according to a recent report from the Arizona Department of Gaming (ADG).

This total reflects an approximate 3% year-over-year decrease compared to December 2024, marking a slight pullback in betting activity.

Despite the decrease in handle, the report highlights that the state collected roughly $6.6 million in privilege fees during December, contributing to Arizona’s continued revenue from regulated event wagering. Since launching legal sports betting in 2021, bettors in the state have wagered more than $31 billion, generating over $165 million in privilege fees to date.

For the fiscal year 2026 year-to-date, regulated event wagering and fantasy sports have generated about $33 million in privilege fees, including $32.3 million from sports betting and $774,167 from fantasy sports activity.

Jackie Johnson, Director of the Arizona Department of Gaming, noted that the December figures conclude the 2025 calendar year, during which Arizona sports bettors wagered more than $9 billion on sports and events, further demonstrating the size and scale of the state’s regulated betting market.

The Department’s monthly reports detail wagering and fantasy sports revenue figures from licensed operators, offering transparency into the evolving sports betting landscape in Arizona.
