The collaboration will offer players sports betting options through an integrated platform.

Ballers Sportsbook has partnered with Sportradar to provide sports betting options to players in Puerto Rico. The multi-year deal will allow the company to utilize sports technology through the Sportradar Orako solution.

Ballers Sportsbook plans to release its online offering to Puerto Rico players during the second quarter of this year. The sportsbook was among the first to enter the commercial market in Puerto Rico, which went live on the island in 2022.

Through Orako, players will be able to access both Ballers Sportsbook and Sportradar content through one platform. They can choose from a variety of wagering options, including parlays, teasers, futures, in-game wagering and player props.

Ballers Sportsbook Founder Daniel de Ontanon commented: "As we prepare to launch our unique online sports betting offering and experience throughout Puerto Rico in the next few months, we are tremendously pleased and excited to count one of the world's most prestigious sports-betting and gaming platform providers as our partners.

“We are proud to be the local sportsbook operator and look forward to offering a unique and tailored experience to our players, full of great content and a true local flavor."
