Oddin.gg Accelerates North American Growth with Regulatory Wins in Kansas and Wyoming

Esports betting provider Oddin.gg has officially extended its North American reach, securing new regulatory green lights in Kansas and Wyoming. The dual approvals bring the Czech-headquartered company’s total footprint on the continent to 10 licensed jurisdictions across the United States and Canada.

Under the latest decisions:

• Kansas: The Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission (KRGC) granted Oddin.gg a temporary supplier license.
• Wyoming: The Wyoming Gaming Commission (WGC) approved the provider for an Online Sports Wagering Vendor Permit.

The move allows Oddin.gg to supply its proprietary esports risk management, odds feeds, and specialized betting infrastructure to licensed sportsbooks in both states.

Two Distinct Markets, One Shared Esports Opportunity

While awarded simultaneously, the new permits position Oddin.gg within two vastly different gaming environments:

• Kansas, which launched regulated sports betting in September 2022, features a competitive field of operators seeking ways to stand out. Integrating competitive gaming odds allows local sportsbooks to engage younger audiences with familiar titles while maintaining strict compliance.
• Wyoming operates an exclusively digital sports betting ecosystem, barring traditional retail sportsbooks entirely. In a market where success hinges entirely on mobile user experience and platform reliability, Oddin.gg aims to serve operators needing robust digital-first wagering options.

Executive Perspective: Regulatory Rigor as a Growth Engine

Company executives emphasized that obtaining regulatory credentials remains central to converting esports from a niche feature into a core sportsbook driver.

"State regulators have done serious work building supplier frameworks that hold every product in the sportsbook to the same standard, and esports belongs inside that structure, not adjacent to it," noted Martin Lycka, Vice President of Institutional Affairs at Oddin.gg. "Kansas and Wyoming took different paths to regulated wagering, but the principle behind each of our licenses is the same: esports betting should be supplied with the same regulatory rigor as any other vertical."

Oddin.gg Co-founder Marek Suchar added that licensing grants operators the confidence needed to fully commit to esports:

"Licensing is what turns esports from an idea operators like into a product they can launch with confidence. What we bring to these markets is depth: the market coverage, trading expertise, and in-play stability that make esports perform like a core vertical rather than a side offering."

Expanding the North American Map

With Kansas and Wyoming now live, Oddin.gg’s regulatory credentials span eight U.S. states, including New Jersey, Colorado, West Virginia, Ohio, Arizona, and Maryland, alongside Ontario and Alberta in Canada.

The company confirmed that additional license applications across other U.S. and Canadian jurisdictions remain actively underway.
