Cash Out on racing offered in the US for the first time
London-based pools betting provider, Colossus Bets, has secured a totalisator license from the Oregon Racing Commission (ORC) enabling the company to offer lottery-sized sports jackpots to North American betting operators.
Colossus Bets’ chief executive Bernard Marantelli:
“We are looking forward to bringing the Colossus formula of lotto-sized jackpots with leg-by-leg Cash Out and crowdfunded syndicates to North American horseplayers. It will be the first time Cash Out on racing has been offered in the US.
“The Oregon Racing Commission is a progressive and forward-looking regulator with most top tier operators on its register, so it is especially pleasing to join their ranks.”
“Increasing our US regulatory footprint will also accelerate the launch of our patented Cash Out feature on existing US horse racing pools.”
Jack McGrail, executive director of the Oregon Racing Commission:
“We are pleased to award this licence to Colossus Bets and we welcome the innovation they will bring to pari-mutuel betting on horse racing, for our licensees and their players.”
