One of the leading content, platform, and service providers in the sports betting industry, OpenBet, partnered with the government-owned operator from Finland, Veikkaus.
Access to the Finnish market:
The Finnish marketrecently became one of the key markets in Europe, especially when it comes to sports betting. Recently, Finland decided to open its doors to private companies and offer them an opportunity to apply for both sports betting and iGaming licenses in the market. This measure towards more inclusivity also opened the door to OpenBet and its unique and advanced solution, which will help the Finnish market grow even further.
The agreement is signed for four years, and OpenBet’s modern technology will upgrade the Veikkaus sportsbook platform, enhancing the betting experience for players who enjoy either retail or online betting, and granting access to the brand’s Managed Trading Services.
