ISI Sports Partners with We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort to Power its Retail Sportsbook
Internet Sports International (ISI), a global provider of turnkey race and sportsbook software solutions, announced its partnership with the We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort in Fort McDowell, Arizona. Through this consultancy, ISI is powering the casino’s sportsbook and retail sports wagering operations on its gaming floor with its award-winning system.
WKP Sportsbook is currently operating, allowing patrons to elevate their excitement by wagering on their preferred sporting events with up-to-the-minute odds and live action. The automated sportsbook kiosks provide access to a wide range of sports propositions for both the beginner and expert bettor.
“We’ve found the perfect match for our vision by selecting ISI Sports as our partner for an enhanced sportsbook experience,” said Sandra Pattea, President of the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation.
“In an industry marked by fierce competition,these cutting-edge kiosks empower us to set new service standards and continually innovate for the benefit of our guests, now and in the years ahead. ISI is retail sportsbook-centric, meaning that our sportsbook will always be its top priority. Their experience and tremendous service allowed us to move quickly from negotiations to opening, an event which went seamlessly for us.”
The We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort is owned and operated by the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation. The167,000-square-foot entertainment venue is a premier gaming and dining destination, featuring more than 900 slot machines, bingo, a variety of table games, and eight state-of-the-art sports betting kiosks powered by ISI.
“More and more,we’re seeing tribal-and commercial-sportsbook operations being left without service as platform providers leave markets across the US. ISI’s cutting-edge technology and solutions,along with its experience that has been gained over the past twenty-five years, allow us to move quickly to assist a start-up operation or one that is being left by prior service providers,” said Ernest Matthews, ISI Vice President and General Counsel.
“Retail casino clients have been looking for creative ways to move ahead with a start-up turnkey or replacement operation at an economical cost. ISI clients are finding it helpful to be able to use its proprietary hardware and software–or alternatively,to reuse their existing hardware in a way that brings down initial costs even more. We-Ko-Pa’s facility and staff are‘top shelf,’ and we look forward to a long relationship in working together,” added Matthews.
