Earlier this year we finished building the core components of our new fixed odds betting system and celebrated this exciting milestone with our partners, OpenBet.  We caught up with John Allen and Stephen Henry from NZRB, and Keith O’Laughlin from OpenBet to talk about how our organisations are working together to deliver a major lift in dividends for racing and other sporting codes in New Zealand.

“We’re working with the best in the world to make us competitive with the rest of the world” said John Allen, CEO, NZRB. “Our new fixed odds betting system has the capability to deliver real benefits to our customers and, most importantly, our industries.  OpenBet and Paddy Power Betfair support our ambitions and, together, we’ll bring the excitement of racing to another generation of Kiwis”.

With much of the system, integration, and business testing now well underway, we’re looking forward to an early December launch.
