The Kansas City Royals have announced a new partnership with Circa Sports, naming the sportsbook operator an official Missouri sports betting partner of the franchise. 

The agreement connects the MLB team with Circa Sports, which launched operations in Missouri in December 2025. The Royals had been seeking a new sportsbook partner after a previously announced multi-year agreement with Underdog did not move forward.

The partnership is scheduled to debut publicly on January 30 during the Royals Rally Casino Night at Kauffman Stadium, an event presented by Circa Sports.
