Oddin.gg has announced that it has received a three-year sports betting license in Ohio, expanding its presence as the esports betting solutions provider with the most licenses across North America. With this addition, Oddin.gg now holds licenses in four U.S. states—New Jersey, Colorado, West Virginia, and Ohio—as well as Ontario, Canada, for a total of five licenses in North America.
Ohio’s entry into the portfolio marks a strategic milestone, with the state poised to become a major hub for sports betting in the Midwest. The Ohio Legislative Service Commission projects that the state’s sports betting market could reach around $3.35 billion annually as it develops. By obtaining this license, Oddin.gg is well-positioned to support operators in harnessing this significant potential.
Achieving regulatory approval in Ohio is also a testament to Oddin.gg’s robust compliance and operational standards, which meet the state’s strict requirements for financial stability, integrity, and adherence to local laws. This license underscores Oddin.gg’s reputation for reliability, bolstering its capacity to deliver comprehensive esports betting solutions within a regulated framework.
Ohio’s legislation imposes a 10% tax on sports betting revenue, funding public education and veterans’ support programs. Oddin.gg’s move into this regulated market further cements its role as a pioneer in the U.S. esports betting industry, providing operators with new opportunities to connect with a dynamic audience in a secure and innovative environment.
Vlastimil Venclík, CEO of Oddin.gg, shared his enthusiasm about the news: “Securing a license from the Ohio Casino Control Commission is a significant step in our North American journey. Ohio is poised to become one of the most dynamic betting markets in the US, and gaining this approval after meeting the state’s rigorous standards is a true reflection of our commitment to integrity and excellence both in Ohio and beyond. However, this license isn’t just about expanding our reach; it’s about ensuring our partners have access to market-leading esports betting solutions that fully align with all local regulatory requirements.”
He continued, “Ohio’s market is gearing up to be something special, and we’re excited to help operators tap into that potential. As esports betting continues to evolve, Oddin.gg is ready to provide the expertise, technology, and support to make sure our partners succeed.”
