ISI Powers We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort with Betting Solutions
Tribal leaders said that ISI’s experience and “tremendous service” allowed the We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort team to move from negotiations to launch in no time at all
We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort, a tribal gaming venue in Fort McDowell, Arizona, has penned a new partnership deal with Internet Sports International (ISI), a provider of sports betting solutions. Per the agreement, the latter company will empower the casino’s operations with cutting-edge technology.
The Provider Will Empower the Casino’s Sportsbook
Under the agreement, ISI will power We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort’s sportsbook with live action betting underpinned by reliable betting odds. In addition, players will be able to enjoy a wide range of sports markets on the casino’s automated wagering kiosks.
Thanks to the agreement, fans will be able to access a variety of new markets, including ones suitable for casual bettors and others designed for sports pundits.
Sandra Pattea, president of the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation, which operates the tribal gaming property, commented on the new agreement, describing ISI Sports as the perfect partner for the casino. According to her, ISI’s proven solutions will allow the property to offer an enhanced sportsbook experience and generate additional value for players.
In an industry marked by fierce competition, these cutting-edge kiosks empower us to set new service standards and continually innovate for the benefit of our guests, now and in the years ahead. ISI is retail sportsbook-centric, meaning that our sportsbook will always be its top priority.

Pattea added that ISI’s experience and “tremendous service” allowed the We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort team to move from negotiations to launch in no time at all, ensuring a fast and seamless content rollout.
American Tribe Recently Donated Money for Safer Gambling Research
In other tribal gaming news, the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians offered the International Center for Responsible Gaming $300,000 in funding, allowing it to continue to research gambling harm and devise new ways to shield players from gambling harm. This donation was echoed by G2E, which offered the center another $200,000.
Not everything has been smooth sailing when it comes to tribal gaming, though, as disenrolled tribespeople recently gathered in protest against the Chukchansi tribe, which operates the Chukchansi Gold Resort. The protestors claimed that the recent disenrollment practices have sought to maximize the tribe’s own portion of the casino’s earnings.
In the meantime, tribal gaming leaders condemned the growing sweepstakes market, which is one of the hot topics of the modern gaming industry. In a Zoom call, leaders spoke about the impact of such products and the potential adverse effects they may have on tribal gaming.
