Amelco and Atlantis Gaming Corporation sign key tribal casino deal
Strategic partnership to produce sportsbook offering for 450 casinos across 28 states
Amelco, the leading sports betting software and trading services provider, has announced its strategic partnership with Atlantis Gaming Corporation (AGC), to produce a fully serviced sportsbook offering for 450 tribal casinos in 28 US states.
The agreement will create a joint, turn-key solution for sportsbook operations across retail, mobile, online and self-service sports wagering channels, pursuant to Tribal Gaming Network’s approval to operate across its jurisdictions.
In a historic first, the deal will be one of the first in the US to see AGC’s Pro Football Hall of Fame partnership powered by Amelco’s fully licenced, market-leading sportsbook technology to offer regulated betting for the first time.
Recognised as one of the most iconic brands in professional US football, AGC’s Pro Football Hall of Fame partnership features its ‘Ask-a-Pro’ format, allowing customers to obtain advice from some of the greatest players and coaches from the sport – enabling customers to place more informed bets than ever before.
Combined with Amelco’s ground-breaking sportsbook technology, both partners expect to revolutionise the delivery of sports betting to fans in the US; in a first of its kind offering.
The latest landmark in Amelco’s ambitious development roadmap, the partnership is testament to its increasing presence across the US, following regulatory approval from multiple US states, as well as partnering with Sportradar in Indiana.
Commenting on the partnership, Leon Wynne, Amelco COO said: “We’re delighted to announce our partnership with AGC in what we see as a very exciting opportunity to continue revolutionising the US’ approach to sports betting.
“With approval to operate across tribal jurisdictions in 28 states, as well as the combination of AGC’s Hall of Fame brand and our technology, I am sure we have the makings for a powerful synergy between us both.”
Donald L. Bailey, President and CEO of Atlantis Gaming added: “We’re proud to add leading sportsbook provider Amelco to our Tribal Gaming Network team. As the sportsbook supplier to some of the biggest names in gaming, they’re perfectly matched to utilise one of the most iconic brands in US football, the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
“I am confident that with their market-leading tech and the power of our brand, we’re set to revolutionise the way sports betting is delivered across the gaming and sports communities.”
With more than a decade of experience in supplying tailored software solutions, Amelco provides bespoke enterprise sports betting and trading platforms to a large number of leading sportsbooks around the world.
In total, Amelco’s US-facing sports wagering platform is now live in three US states, including New Jersey via its partnership with the Stars Group, and will be supporting a host of launches across multiple US states as further regulation permits.

Incentive Games wins interim Pennsylvania gaming licence
Incentive Games has been granted an interim gaming licence in Pennsylvania by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, effective immediately. The approval allows the B2B supplier to offer its real-money gaming products to licensed operators in the state.
The Pennsylvania approval follows Incentive Games’ licensing in Michigan in 2025, as the company continues to expand across regulated North American markets.
Incentive Games said the Pennsylvania licence gives it access to one of the most established and competitive US iGaming markets, where compliance and player protection requirements are tightly enforced.
Ahmed Baker, Chief Commercial Officer at Incentive Games, said, “Being granted an interim licence in Pennsylvania is a huge achievement for our business and a strong endorsement of our regulatory approach.
