Hard Metrics, the online sportsbook and casino platform and services joint venture between Metric Gaming and the Bethard Group, has signed its first operator partner, Toro Bet.
The deal allows Toro Bet to enter the Mexican sports betting market powered by the state-of-the art Hard Metrics platform.
The technology includes Metric Gaming’s trading, operations, risk management and suite of innovative and proprietary betting products, as well as Bethard’s business intelligence, player account management system and casino platform.
Toro Bet is the first operator within America to take advantage of the Hard Metrics turnkey solution, which provides an enviable level of product autonomy from a B2B supplier.
Uniquely, the Hard Metrics platform allows operators to configure distinct offerings to meet the competitive and regulatory needs of divergent markets. In the case of Toro Bet, it will allow them to establish their brand in Mexico and then move into other Latin American territories with offerings unique to that particular market.
Martin de Knijff, Metric Gaming CEO and Founder said: “We are thrilled to have signed our first operator partner through Hard Metrics and look forward to helping Toro Bet establish itself as a major player in the Mexican online sports betting market.
“Toro Bet have ambitious and exciting plans, which include expansion into other territories within America and Hard Metrics will be supporting them in those plans”
“Hard Metrics has been formed to provide operators with a powerful platform and service solution specifically for the American market and we believe this will help Toro Bet achieve great success now and into the future.”
Erik Skarp, CEO of Bethard added: “This is an important step on our journey to sign our first operator in Latin America and we see this as a clear sign that there is demand for our services in these regions.”
Kyle Carlston of Alternative Ventures, financiers of Toro Bet commented: “We are confident that we have assembled the best technology for our venture in Mexico.
Our partnership with Hard Metrics allows Toro Bet to offer Latin America a highly curated technology solution featuring best-in-class mobile, live betting.”
The joint venture is a one stop shop suitable for both established sports betting operators and those looking to launch for the first time, providing them with the technology and expertise they need to succeed in the US market and beyond.
