FanDuel Extends Scientific Games & OpenBet Partnership to Connecticut
Scientific Games and OpenBet have entered the newly-legalized market of Connecticut with long-term partner and leading sportsbook operator, FanDuel Group.
Following a successful soft launch period that was exclusive to FanDuel and a limited number of operators, the Flutter Group brand is now live with a comprehensive offering that is powered by OpenBet’s modern, scalable, and robust betting technology.
Connecticut becomes the 12th U.S. state that FanDuel has launched a digital offering utilizing OpenBet technology to offer a safe and responsible betting experience. Last month, the operator entrusted the industry’s leading sports betting provider for its entry into Arizona, while it is also live with OpenBet across Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.
Deploying its sports betting technology in another state with FanDuel enhances OpenBet’s position as a leading supplier within the US sports betting market and highlights the strength and robustness of the company’s modular product offering. In addition to FanDuel, OpenBet powers Flutter Entertainment’s market-leading brands including Betfair, Sky Bet, and Paddy Power in Europe and Sportsbet in Australia.
Cathryn Lai, Chief Commercial Officer at OpenBet, said: “It’s fantastic to see Connecticut embrace legalized sports betting and officially open its doors. We’re proud to have delivered our transformed and modern sports betting technology to one of the biggest names in the U.S. market and support their entry into Connecticut.
“Players are sure to love the exciting new experiences on offer to them, which can be easily and responsibly accessed through their mobile devices. This latest launch demonstrates we’re once again delivering on our promise to provide world class sports betting entertainment for players worldwide.”

Cruzeiro Esporte Clube Join Forces with Betfair
The newly promoted Brazilian Serie A side, Cruzeiro Esporte Clube have landed a new sponsorship agreement with the UK-based operator, Betfair.
As part of the agreement, the betting firm’s logo is incorporated on the chest of the club’s shirt, which is back in Serie A of the Brazilian Championship after a recent promotion after three years.
The agreement covers the men’s team and an essential space for brand awareness on the women’s kits – on the back, at the top.
Gabriel Lima, CEO of the club, said: “This historic partnership is the size of Cruzeiro. It has a lot of strength, a huge potential. The club is going through a very special moment. With serious and professional work, we are recovering the fans’ trust, which is fundamental for us. Closing with Betfair, one of the giants in its segment, is an important step on Cruzeiro’s way back to its well-deserved prominent position in Brazilian football.”
Furthermore, a series of activations aimed directly at the approximately 10 million fans that comprise Naço Azul, including raffles and awards for VIP tickets and official products, exclusive promotions and experiences with Raposa talent, will be held.
Besides that, the operator has assured brand visibility in all Cruzeiro digital media, training epaulettes, interview backdrops, prisms in the stadium, logo on the team bus, and the release of a personalized club legends program.
Kimberley Daly, Managing Director of Betfair International, said: “We are very excited about this partnership, as we will have the opportunity to support Cruzeiro at a special and important moment in its 100+ year history.
“This partnership is a demonstration of Betfair’s commitment and investment in the club’s professional men’s and women’s teams, without losing focus on what is most precious to Cruzeiro: the fans. With Betfair, the game is different, and we put fans at the heart of everything we do to bring them experiences that only Betfair can offer.”
