The sports apparel company Fanatics announced at a Massachusetts licensing session that it will be using Amelco’s source code for its betting software.
Fans had made their intentions known for a long time to get into the sports betting world. In 2021 the business applied for a New York licence. Last year, it established a gaming and betting division and hired a large number of people.
It has also submitted applications for several licences. It has also been granted a Maryland retail betting license and approved by Ohio.
Amelco Source Code for Fanatics
The technology that it planned to use remained unknown. Earlier reports claimed Fanatics was planning to use Amelco source code until April 2022. However, at that time the operator stated that no agreement had been made with Amelco.
Fanatics chose not to respond when later reports claimed that Fanatics was going to acquire German sportsbook operator Tipico, and would use their platform.
Scot McClintic, the chief product officer at Fanatics revealed during a presentation before state gaming commissions about its application for an sports betting license in Massachusetts that Fanatics will be using Amelco’s platform.
He said that Amelco is the company behind our core platform, particularly for sports betting and player account management.
Fanatics purchased Amelco’s source code. This allows it to modify the platform according to its needs.
McClintic continued, “We are ‘Fanaticising,’ we’re making it work for some specific uses-cases we have, and in the coming weeks, we’ll be bringing this version forward to GLI certification.”
We are developing a number of middleware applications that will allow the Amelco System to work in the way we would like it to.
