Kindred selects Kambi for NJ sports betting platform

Kindred has agreed with Kambi to extend its current agreement on sports betting products to also include New Jersey. The extension demonstrates the strong partnership between Kindred and Kambi.

Kindred Group (previously Unibet Group) has agreed to sign an addendum to the current contract the Group has with Kambi. The addendum will give Kindred access to Kambi’s sports betting platform in New Jersey. This agreement, together with the already communicated agreement with SG Digital, will allow Kindred to offer customers in New Jersey a full range of first class sports betting and casino products under its Unibet brand.

“We are of course delighted to add this final piece to our product offering towards customers in New Jersey. Kindred and Kambi have a long and successful history together, which we intend to develop further as we prepare to enter the New Jersey market. I am particularly pleased that we are now ready to offer customers in New Jersey a truly great experience in a safe and secure environment”, says Manuel Stan, SVP Kindred US.

“The partnership between Kambi and Kindred, which goes back many years, continues to deliver consistent sports betting growth in Europe and other parts of the world, illustrating Kambi’s ability to empower visionary operators to become sportsbook market leaders. As industry innovators, Kindred has leveraged the flexibility of the Kambi platform to develop truly unique and differentiated sports betting experiences for its players and we look forward to supporting Kindred in bringing those to the US”, says Max Meltzer, Kambi Chief Commercial Officer.

Kindred has previously communicated the partnership with Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City to pursue a Casino Service Industry Enterprise License in New Jersey, and the partnership with SG Digital to use their Open Platform System (a player account management platform) and Open Gaming System (a game aggregation technology).
