Casino Arizona Enters Sports Betting Arena With OpenBet Partnership
OpenBet, the world leader in sports betting entertainment, has facilitated the launch of Casino Arizona’s new retail sportsbook offering, further extending the company’s impressive foothold within the State.
As part of this new deal with the tribe Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community (SRPMIC), OpenBet has supplied Casino Arizona in Scottsdale and its sister property, Talking Stick Resort, with its comprehensive range of retail sports betting solutions.
Both casinos take advantage of the company’s customizable Self Service Betting Terminals (SSBTs), as well as the state-of-the-art Promote screen management system, which displays engaging content through a variety of in-venue formats from mini displays through to large video walls.
In addition, OpenBet is providing its 24/7 Managed Trading Services (MTS), the full risk and liability management service powered by Don Best Sports. Covering a breadth of markets and events including the big six U.S. sports, the MTS delivers AI-driven pricing models overseen by a team of expert sportsbook traders that lead the industry.
The highly-anticipated retail sportsbook at Casino Arizona is now open for business, heralding an exciting new chapter in the casino’s proud history.
This latest agreement for OpenBet underpins the company’s strong presence in Arizona’s regulated sports betting market, with its leading technology live with a host of online operators in the State, along with pricing solutions powered by Don Best Sports and SportCast’s game-changing products.
Ramon Martinez, director of public relations at Casino Arizona and Talking Stick Resort, said: “Launching a new retail sportsbook is an extremely exciting move for our organization. Sports betting has grown to become a major form of entertainment and we wanted to complement our core offering to bring even more exciting opportunities for our customers. When choosing a technology partner to power our sportsbook, OpenBet’s reputation was clear to see and we know that we’re in safe hands given its reliable and trusted solutions.”
Cathryn Lai, Chief Commercial Officer at OpenBet, said: “We’re incredibly proud to have secured this partnership with Casino Arizona, with our robust and scalable retail products set to provide the operator with the best platform to enter the highly competitive sports betting arena. This is undoubtedly an exciting time for Casino Arizona and its sister property Talking Stick Resort.

Neosurf & Betting Hero to reveal results of their in-depth study into US online gambling and payment habits in exclusive two-part webinar series
Neosurf, the globally trusted provider of swift and secure cash-to-digital payment solutions, has announced it will be sharing the findings of a recent study into the online betting habits, preferences and frustrations of US players in an exclusive two-part webinar series beginning on January 14th.
Neosurf commissioned the research via Betting Hero – a leading US-based iGaming portal with expertise in casino, sports betting and DFS. The webinars will see Neosurf CEO Americas, Sue Page, Betting Hero’s Co-Founder and President, Jai Maw, and Senior Director of Product and Research, Ernie Ropas, dive into the report’s key findings and discuss what some of the more surprising results could mean for operators.
The survey, which featured respondents from New Jersey, Colorado and North Carolina, aimed to help operators and regulators within the gambling industry better understand the typical US bettor – how and why they bet, what tools they use to manage their budget and what Responsible Gaming means to them. The findings will be revealed in the webinars and used to identify areas where Neosurf’s products can help operators provide a better user experience.
The research highlighted several aspects of payments and responsible gaming that bettors felt could be improved. Problems with payments remain an issue – 52% of respondents said that they’d experienced payment issues in the past year, and with over 50% depositing and withdrawing multiple times each month, there is a significant cost impact to the operators.
Additionally, respondents indicated they’d be in favour of using a service that could share pre-verified ID information with operators, with ease of use for new payment methods and seamless integration across multiple platforms identified as important factors in their choosing and remaining loyal to a single sports betting platform.
Sue Page, Neosurf CEO Americas, said: “It was important to us to gain a more detailed insight into the US sports bettor. We wanted to talk to the players and ask questions that no one else is asking, and through our collaboration with Betting Hero I’m delighted that we now have a comprehensive piece of research.
“Offering valuable insights into player habits – how and why they bet, the ongoing pain points they’re experiencing with payments and their thoughts on Responsible Gaming—we’ll be taking a deep dive into the results of the survey in our two-part webinar series starting at 10:00 ET on January 14th, and we encourage all US-focused operators and regulators to join us.”
