Both companies have signed a multi-year partnership. The ORAKO solution will be deployed to the Puerto Rico-based casino and help it provide excellent player experiences as the company prepares for the launch of its full-fledged online sportsbook.
Puerto Rico: A Strong Start for Ballers Sportsbook
Customers of Ballers Sportsbook will have access by Sportradar to a large library of betting markets that will allow them to bet on many markets and sports. ORAKO offers the possibility to place a bet on player props and in-play, futures or teasers, moneylines, parlays, or other markets.
Ballers plans to integrate the ORAKO sportsbook solution into the R. Franco Digital PAM gives the company a 360-degree omnichannel, 360-degree player experience. Ballers Sportsbook will be available in the 2nd quarter of the year. Puerto Rico has only recently regulated its sports gambling industry.
Ballers Sportsbook founder Daniel de Ontanon praised the partnership and said that he was happy to accept Sportradar’s solution. He also plans to integrate it with the new online sports betting platform, which will be one of the most popular in Puerto Rico for the next few months. De Ontanon said:
We are thrilled to be able to partner with one of the most respected gaming and sports betting platforms in the world.

Great Sportsbook Solution with Local Flavor
He stated that the operator of the sportsbook was dedicated to offering a customized experience for players, with a authentic local flavor. Sportradar managing Director managed sportsbook services Jacob Lopez Cuciel stated that Puerto Rico was an important region of the Americas, and thus a potential growth area for the company.
Curciel stated, “We are happy to power Ballers Sportsbook using our ORAKO solution” It took some time for Puerto Rico to launch sports betting.
The activity was approved by the 2019 but there was much debate over when it should be implemented. Sportradar’s ORAKO solution was introduced in 2022. This allowed Ballers Sportsbook to take advantage of it.
