New opportunities from regulatory change

New opportunities emerged for global gambling operators in 2018 when the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA). 

Prior to the ruling, Kambi had been working towards an early entrance into these markets and knew that to be successful in its ambition, it needed to be able to demonstrate to U.S. regulators that it had a clear understanding of specific state-by-state regulations and that its data-driven technology could be trusted. 

Partnering with Vixio 

Kambi turned to Vixio, making use of its full suite of regulatory intelligence and analysis covering historic, ongoing and forthcoming legal and regulatory changes. Kambi gained a deep understanding of the state-by-state regulatory environment allowing it to build trust with US regulators and demonstrate its strength in data-driven technology by outlining key expectations for regulated sports wagering. Kambi was able to use the intelligence gained from Vixio’s solution to hold constructive talks with the New Jersey regulator ahead of the PAPSA repeal. 

Compliance becomes a Competitive Advantage

With Kambi’s strategy informed by Vixio’s comprehensive solutions it was able to help its partners become the first operators from outside the U.S. to move into New Jersey, New York and Philadelphia markets, with numerous other States subsequently being added.

Vixio continues to partner with Kambi, providing vital data-led insights to help it navigate the ever-changing requirements in existing markets, allowing Kambi to remain as the trusted provider of sports betting services.
