There & rsquo, a brand-new potential player, wants to enter Arizona’s burgeoning sports betting market.
MaximBet, an affiliate of the lifestyle brand MaxiM men & rsquo, announced a plan to partner with the White Mountain Apache Tribe.
The agreement allows MaximBet to offer sports betting in Arizona, given that the community receives the necessary permit. At present, license applications are under review by the Arizona Department of Gaming (ADG). The ADG has indicated that sports betting is set to commence by September 9, aligning with the beginning of the 2021 NFL season.
MaximBet is set to bring a lifestyle brand to Arizona sports bettors.
The announcement revealed that the tribe and MaximBet have jointly submitted an application to the ADG for a sports betting license.
ZK International Group Co., Ltd, a Chinese engineering firm, is the parent company of Maxim & rsquo. Earlier this year, Maxim and the Carousel Group launched the & ldquo, a brand focused on online sports betting lifestyle known as andrde.
MaximBet, in addition to its planned expansion in Arizona, is now considering opening casinos in four other states. The company already has a strategy in place in Colorado, where SportsBetting.com is set to rebrand as MaximBet in September. The additional states targeted for expansion include Indiana, New Jersey, and Iowa.
“MaximBet CEO Daniel Graetzner is confident that Arizona will be attracted to the company’s user-friendly software, exceptional customer service, and the notable events they are organizing for the state,” he stated.
MaximBet strives to differentiate itself from other sportsbooks by emphasizing its association with the prestigious and contemporary brand identity, referred to as “The Maxim international men”. This identity is promoted by a magazine of the same name that was first published in the mid-1990s.
Brent Kurth, the general manager of the tribe’s Hon-Dah Resort Casino, also displayed similar enthusiasm for the new alliance.
Kurth asserts that this partnership will significantly increase revenue and is crucial for the financial future of the tribe and its 17,000 members.
Programs were researched by ADG; the winners for this month were selected.
Just a day after the ADG announced receiving 25 applicants for AZ sports betting licenses, the news arrives that 15 of these applications are from the state’s federally recognized tribes. However, only 10 licenses will be allocated to the tribes. The remaining 10 licenses are up for grabs by Arizona professional sports franchises and venues.
To put it differently, the number of entrants exceeds the number of licenses available for the nations.
Partnerships have also been announced between Arizona clans and sportsbook operators, including:
- The Fort McDowall Yavapai Nation and Betfred
- The Gila River Indian Community and BetMGM
- The Colorado River Indian Tribes and BlueBet
- The Kindred Group and the Quechan Tribe
- The Yavapi-Apache Nation and PointsBet
- The Tonto Apache Tribe and TwinSpires
- The San Carlos Apache Tribe and WynnBet
Additionally, partnerships have been declared between providers and various professional sports organizations in Arizona. Bally Bet Arizona has partnered with the Phoenix Mercury, Barstool Sportsbook with Phoenix Raceway, Caesars with the Arizona Diamondbacks, DraftKings with TPC Scottsdale, and FanDuel with the Phoenix Suns. All are potentially ready to launch, pending regulatory approval.
The ADG’s timeline states that qualified applicants for licensure will be informed on Aug. 16. If the number of tribes deemed qualified exceeds 10, the ADG will use a specific set of guidelines to determine allocation decisions.
The “Allocation Evaluation Period” is set to last for eight business days, during which the ADG will determine the license recipients. The decision is anticipated by August 27. However, if required, the ADG might delay the decision until the subsequent Monday.
Once the registration is issued, operators will need to take swift action to be ready for the commencement of event wagering, known as “Go-Live” time, on September 9.
