LeoVegas, which is owned by MGM Resorts, has announced the launch of its proprietary sportsbook, Tiger, in the United Kingdom, after the platform went live in Sweden, Brazil, and Denmark.
The product is powered by the Tipico U.S. platform, which was acquired back in 2024, and will now allow users to access the BetMGM, LeoVegas, and BetUK brands. According to the operator, the platform will include improved odds boosts, flex combi features, and partial cash-out options.
Chief product and technology officer at LeoVegas Group, Adrian Vella, commented:
“This marks one of the most significant moments in our two-year journey to build a world-class, proprietary Sportsbook. Every market launch has helped us refine the platform, improve the customer experience, and strengthen our competitive edge. Launching in the UK demonstrates our commitment to investing in our own technology, giving us the speed to innovate, greater flexibility, and a strong foundation for long-term strategic growth.”
Sports director for the UK and Ireland at LeoVegas Group, James Derbyshire, added:
“Launching our proprietary sportsbook, Tiger, in the UK is another huge milestone for the group. As one of the most competitive igaming markets in the world, I’m excited to see our customers enjoy the product and engage with some fantastic new sports betting features tailored specifically for the UK market.”
The new product launch aims to offer bettors more flexible betting opportunities, as the in-house sportsbook platform allows for greater innovation and adaptability. At the same time, the roll-out will play an important role in the company’s strategic growth plan.
