A joint venture involving Scientific Games has sealed a 10-year deal with the Turkish government.
Sans Girisim lands exclusive Turkish sports betting contract
Sans Girisim has signed a 10-year contract with the Turkish government to become the nation’s exclusive sports betting provider.
That position was previously held by Inteltek, a subsidiary of Intralot, but the company was ousted by a joint venture between Scientific Games and the Demirören Group.
The deal will see Sans Girisim handle all sports betting practices in Turkey, including both in-store wagering and mobile betting solutions.
“This important contract is evidence our efforts over the last several years to create a superior, all-inclusive sports betting offering are coming together through collaboration between Scientific Games’ lottery and digital groups,” said Barry Cottle, Scientific Games CEO.

“We are honoured by the trust given to us by Sans Digital and the Government of Turkey.”
Turkey’s gambling scene is one of the largest in the world, ranking second for state-backed wagering industries and third for total betting sales.
“After evaluating many of the leading companies in the global sports betting industry, we selected Scientific Games as our ideal partner,” said Sinan Oktay, a Sans Girisim board member.
Yildirim Demirören, chairman of the Demirören Group, has stepped down from his position as head of the Turkish Football Federation so as to avoid any potential conflict of interest.
