The ceremonial first bet was placed on Caesars Sportsbook self-service wagering kiosks inside the Coquille Indian Tribe’s premier gaming and hospitality destination, Ko-Kwel Casino Resort | Coos Bay, previously known as The Mill Casino, which now celebrates its 30th anniversary.

Caesars has enhanced Coquille’s sports viewing experience at its premier destination with a large fleet of Caesars Sportsbook self-service betting kiosks, conveniently located on the casino floor. These kiosks feature a best-in-class wagering menu with a wide array of same game parlays, player props, futures and live in-play markets. Sports fans 21 and older can enjoy the gold standard of sports wagering, including unmatched full college sports offerings which are not otherwise available on a statewide mobile basis in Oregon, reflecting Caesars’ and the Coquille Indian Tribe’s shared commitment to providing world-class experiences.

“We remain committed to supporting Indian gaming, and we’re proud to partner with the Coquille Indian Tribe to enhance their guest experience.

Oddsgate earns key ISO 37001 and ISO 37301 certifications

Oddsgate adds ISO 37001 and ISO 37301 to its certification portfolio, reinforcing its long-term strategy for integrity, trusted growth, and positioning as an ethical tech partner.

In a sector where regulatory evolution is constant and reputational risk travels fast, certifications alone are not the story, but the mindset behind them is. While new ISO achievements might go unnoticed by those accustomed to industry headlines, the recent ISO 37001 (Anti-Bribery Management) and ISO 37301 (Compliance Management) certifications obtained by Oddsgate represent more than procedural victories. They mark a conscious, strategic reinforcement of the company’s internal culture and operational DNA.

Rather than responding reactively to compliance demands, Oddsgate continues to build a structure where ethics, transparency, and control are not just safeguards but enablers of trust and performance. These certifications confirm that the company doesn’t just meet international standards, it anticipates them, translating complex regulatory requirements into clear, measurable practices across its platform and business model.

“Our pursuit of these certifications was not driven by obligation, but by conviction. At Oddsgate, we view compliance as a catalyst, not a constraint. It enables our partners to grow securely and gives regulators and stakeholders something that has become a competitive asset: trust”, according to Tiago Almeida, Oddsgate’s CEO.

The ISO 37001 certification focuses on implementing a preventive and responsive anti-bribery management system. It covers a full spectrum of practices, from due diligence and risk assessment to internal audits, training, and whistleblowing mechanisms. It applies to both active and passive bribery and is compatible with other management systems already adopted by the company, such as ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 27001 (Information Security), and ISO 22301 (Business Continuity).

ISO 37301, meanwhile, raises the bar for how organization’s structure and monitor compliance at scale. Unlike its predecessor, ISO 19600, which served only as a guideline, ISO 37301 is a certifiable standard. It evaluates how a company maps its legal and regulatory obligations, integrates ethical conduct into its operations, and engages leadership in continuous improvement and governance. This includes everything from contractual commitments to internal codes of ethics and industry-specific requirements.

These certifications serve a dual function: mitigate legal and reputational risks while unlocking new value through stronger partnerships, regulatory credibility, and long-term operational resilience.

“More than responding to what’s expected, we believe in building systems that anticipate and adapt,” adds Tiago Almeida. “Compliance, when treated as strategy, can attract the right partners, generate business stability, and protect innovation from unnecessary risk.”

Oddsgate’s compliance architecture is not an isolated layer but is deeply integrated with its platform offering and customer experience. From onboarding new operators to processing data securely and managing affiliate networks, the company has developed internal controls that scale with client growth while respecting local and international regulations.

As global markets mature and enforcement becomes more sophisticated, Oddsgate positions itself as a technology provider and an operational ally capable of helping its clients confidently navigate complex compliance landscapes.
