This achievement, announced on November 1, marks Sportradar’s continued expansion in the North American sports betting landscape.
Strengthening Presence in North America
With the addition of the Maine license, Sportradar now holds a total of 53 licenses or equivalents across various jurisdictions in North America, including U.S. states, territories, tribes, and Canada.
This extensive licensing underlines Sportradar’s commitment to providing high-quality, reliable sports data and services to a wide range of clients within these areas.
