Scientific Games Corp. has been selected to provide the Oneida Indian Nation’s three casinos in upstate New York through its OpenBet technology once New York’s sports betting market is launched.

Scientific Games and the Oneida Indian Nation, owner of the Turning Stone Resort Casino, Yellow Brick Road Casino and Point Place Casino, have agreed that Scientific Games will support Oneida’s launch of its sports books in New York as soon as sports betting is authorized in the state.

Oneida will deploy SG Digital’s sports betting platform, which includes technology from its recent acquisition of Don Best Sports.

Scientific Games and Oneida will submit the agreement to the National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC) for review to ensure compliance with applicable laws. It will be among the first NIGC reviews of an Indian tribe’s U.S. sports betting agreement.
