The aim is to enter a new market access deal that could bring the sportsbook to fans across the state of Kansas. This can only be achieved if sports betting legislation and regulations are adhered to, and all applicable licenses and approvals are authorised.
Jeremy Elbaum, DraftKings SVP Business Development, said: “As we continue our quest to expand our mobile sportsbook footprint to every state in the US, we are eager to begin working with Boot Hill Casino & Resort. We look forward to the opportunities that lay ahead and remain optimistic that Kansas lawmakers will enact common-sense legislation that will benefit the state and its constituents.”
DraftKings boasts a range of both sports wagering and online casino options covering 18 states, offering customers new loyalty rewards programs. Alongside millions of daily fantasy sports contests that are offered yearly, in August, DraftKings Marketplace was launched, which offered entertainment and sports fans the chance to collect NFTs from the most profound athletes and Hollywood stars.
Clark Stewart, Boot Hill Casino & Resort CEO, said: “As manager for Boot Hill Casino & Resort for the Kansas Lottery, we are pleased to work with DraftKings to bring first in class mobile sportsbook to Kansas.
“DraftKings is a leader in this fast-growing industry and will bring a trusted, experienced mobile sports betting application to sports fans in Kansas, when the law allows.”
