Delasport enters Philippines with OKBET sportsbook deal

iGaming platform provider Delasport is entering the Philippines after agreeing a new sportsbook deal with locally licensed operator OKBET.

The agreement will see Delasport provide its platform technology to enhance the operator’s sports betting offering.

“I’m excited that OKBET and Delasports are joining forces to redefine the landscape of online sports gaming in the Philippines,” said OKBET chief operating officer Wayne Thong. “This partnership combines OKBET’s local market expertise with Delasports’ global industry leadership, creating new opportunities for innovation and customer satisfaction.

“OKBET and Delasport share a common vision for the future: a vibrant and dynamic platform that caters to the diverse interests of sports enthusiasts. By combining cutting-edge technology with a deep understanding of user preferences, this collaboration aims to set new standards for the industry.”

OKBET has been licensed by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) since 2022, and currently sponsors the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL), as well as three of the twenty-two competing teams – Marikina Shoemasters, the Gensan Warriors, and the Sarangani Marlins.

“We’re proud to supply our services to such a strong partner as OKBET, and to an exciting and steadily growing market as the Philippines,” said Delasport CEO Oren Cohen Shwartz.
