Paysafe Expands into Kansas Online Sports Betting Market

Specialized payments platform Paysafe has announced its entry into the new Kansas online sports betting market. The move sees Paysafe supporting multiple online sportsbooks in the state with players’ credit and debit card deposits plus ACH payments, while its marketing technology and services provider Income Access is powering the affiliate marketing programs of several Kansas iGaming brands.

In Kansas, Caesars Entertainment, DraftKings, and PointsBet, have all extended their longstanding payments partnerships with Paysafe. The three operators’ Kansas online sportsbooks have plugged into Paysafe’s best-in-breed payment gateway to support online credit and debit card deposits, with all transactions processed seamlessly.

Through Paysafe, Caesars Sportsbook and PointsBet are also now enabling their players in Kansas to link their bank accounts to their sportsbook accounts to then make ACH deposits and receive payouts of their winnings. The ACH payments with both brands are supported by Paysafe’s connectivity to third-party ACH Warranty providers.

As well as strengthening customer conversions through payments, Paysafe is also supporting player acquisition for Kansas-facing operators using the affiliate marketing channel. The affiliate software of Paysafe’s Income Access is being used to track, manage, and optimize the affiliate programs of several brands in the new Kansas market, including Caesars Entertainment’s Caesars Sportsbook.
