DraftKings and MansionBet Extend Their Online Sports Betting Deal

Mansion Group’s MansionBet brand has extended its sports betting supply deal with DraftKings. The latter entity’s B2B tech suite, owned through the SBTech acquisition will, under the new agreements, be used for Mansion’s online sportsbook and casino gaming.

This deal also includes the provision of a suite of managed services covering compliance, payments and anti-fraud mechanisms.

The Details of the Deal

DraftKings and MansionBet have worked together since February 2018 and the original agreement facilitated the operator’s venture into sports betting.

Mansion CEO, Karel Manasco, has said that “DraftKings’ B2B platform has been instrumental to the success of MansionBet since we launched.”

“The extended deal will allow us to provide our players with the ultimate sports betting experience, including increased offerings and an enhanced horse racing product, utilising the impressive platforms and services that DraftKings provide.”

Shay Berka, DraftKings’ chief international officer, added:

“Our renewal and extension with MansionBet, a tier one operator in the highly competitive UK market, is another example of the strategic value DraftKings’ cutting-edge B2B technology provides to our clients.”

The extended deal comes after DraftKings last week partnered up with South African gaming and hospitality group Peermont Hotels, Gaming and Resorts to launch a new mobile and online sportsbook in the country.

On the B2C side, DraftKings this month also entered a wide-ranging partnership with the Turner Sports division of WarnerMedia. This sees it become the exclusive sportsbook and daily fantasy sports provider for select Turner Sports and Bleacher Report assets.

West Virginia Entry With NetEnt

NetEnt has achieved a deal with DraftKings regarding the expansion in West Virginia…

…and the selection of developer’s games will be launched with DraftKings operators, such as Gonzo’s Quest, Blackjack, Starburst and more.

NetEnt’s vice president commercial, Brian Kraft, said that “we are thrilled to be the first third-party supplier to launch our games in West Virginia. It’s fantastic to have some of our most popular titles from New Jersey and Pennsylvania now live in the West Virginia market for DraftKings’ players to enjoy.”
