BETER Cracks Florida Market: Setka Cup Now Live on Hard Rock Bet
Editor’s Take
Why this matters: Florida is a “monopoly market” controlled by the Seminole Tribe, meaning there is only one door in: Hard Rock Bet. By securing vendor registration here, BETER gains access to one of the most populous states in the U.S. without the fragmentation of competition seen in states like New Jersey. The immediate deployment of Setka Cup (table tennis) fills a crucial need for 24/7, fast-paced content during U.S. daytime off-hours.
The Full Story
BETER, the provider of next-gen betting content and data, has officially entered the Florida sports betting market after securing Vendor Registration from the Seminole Tribe of Florida (dba Seminole Gaming).
The regulatory approval allows BETER to supply its fast-paced betting products to the state’s sole authorized operator, Hard Rock Bet.
Day One Impact: Table Tennis Following the approval, BETER has immediately launched its exclusive Setka Cup table tennis tournaments on the Hard Rock Bet platform.
-
The Product: Setka Cup provides 24/7 live streaming, real-time data, and odds.
-
The Reach: Florida becomes the fifth U.S. state where Setka Cup is available to bettors.
-
The Metric: BETER covers approximately 700,000 fast-paced events annually, offering up to 50 betting markets per event with margins often exceeding market standards.
Next Phase: Esports While table tennis is live now, BETER has confirmed that its esports portfolio—specifically ESportsBattle—will be integrated into Hard Rock Bet in the “near future.” This will bring round-the-clock eFootball, eBasketball, and other fast-market disciplines to Florida bettors.
Management Commentary Chuck Robinson, Chief Revenue Officer at BETER, emphasized the strategic value of the exclusive Hard Rock partnership:
“Launching Setka Cup with our partner Hard Rock Bet is particularly significant, as it allows us to introduce our fast-betting content to Florida bettors through a highly trusted sportsbook platform. We see strong long-term potential in Florida… Our esports content, particularly ESportsBattle, will also be going live soon.”
Valeriia Tarchynska, Chief Legal Officer at BETER, noted the complexity of the approval:
“Obtaining vendor registration in Florida reflects the strength of our regulatory strategy… We are grateful to the Seminole Tribe of Florida dba Seminole Gaming for their cooperation throughout the registration process.”
This approval is part of a wider U.S. expansion strategy for BETER, which has already secured access in key states including Ohio, Arizona, and Kentucky.

BETER
BETER Secures Vendor Registration in Florida
BETER, the award-winning provider of live streaming, real-time data, and odds for fast-paced esports and sports content, has continued its U.S. expansion by securing Vendor Registration in the state of Florida.
The registration was granted by the Seminole Tribe of Florida dba Seminole Gaming, the regulatory authority that also oversees sports betting operations in the state.
Following the approval, BETER’s exclusive Setka Cup table tennis tournaments, featuring live streams, live data, and odds, are now available to bettors via the Hard Rock Bet. This launch marks BETER’s official entry into the Florida market, making Florida the fifth U.S. state where Setka Cup is available.
BETER delivers 24/7 live streaming, real-time data, and hyper-accurate odds for approximately 700,000 fast-paced events each year across a range of esports and sports disciplines, offering up to 50 betting markets per event and an average operator margin higher than the market standard. BETER expects to unlock much of this additional value through the integration of its exclusive ESportsBattle content into the Hard Rock Bet platform in the near future.
All matches are thoroughly monitored by BETER’s dedicated Integrity team, ensuring strict adherence to transparency standards and the rules of fair play.
Chuck Robinson, Chief Revenue Officer at BETER, said: “Securing vendor registration in Florida is another major milestone for BETER and a clear signal of our growing momentum across regulated U.S. markets.
“Launching Setka Cup with our partner Hard Rock Bet is particularly significant, as it allows us to introduce our fast-betting content to Florida bettors through a highly trusted sportsbook platform. We see strong long-term potential in Florida and are excited to continue building our presence here. Our esports content, particularly ESportsBattle, will also be going live soon, further enhancing the overall betting experience in the state.
“Our teams are looking forward to fruitful collaboration.”
Valeriia Tarchynska, Chief Legal Officer at BETER, added: “Obtaining vendor registration in Florida reflects the strength of our regulatory strategy and the expertise of our legal team in navigating the complex U.S. regulatory landscape.
“We are grateful to the Seminole Tribe of Florida dba Seminole Gaming for their cooperation throughout the registration process. This approval further supports our broader U.S. expansion plans as we continue securing licenses and launching our products in key regulated states, including Ohio, Arizona, Kentucky, and others.”
