2025 Partnership Highlights
Stake expanded its brand partnerships throughout 2025. However, the platform’s relationship with some partners has been complicated by ongoing legal issues. Drake, despite being listed as a continuing partner, has been facing federal lawsuits alongside Adin Ross over their Stake promotions. The Drake vs Stake controversy earlier in 2025 saw the rapper accuse the platform of blocking his withdrawals.
| Partner | Category | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Team Vitality | Esports | Multi-year CS2 partnership |
| Trinbago Knight Riders | Cricket | Official partner – Won CPL 2025 |
| Frankie Dettori | Horse Racing | 40-year racing legend |

Notably, the Trinbago Knight Riders broke the so-called “Stake Curse” by winning the Caribbean Premier League after partnering with the platform, becoming the top T20 team in the Caribbean with 5 titles.
Regulatory Challenges
Despite the impressive numbers, 2025 wasn’t without challenges for Stake. The platform faced increasing regulatory pressure in the United States, with Stake.us exiting California following legal pressure. The platform has also faced multiple lawsuits challenging its sweepstakes model.
Looking Ahead to 2026
Stake has announced several promotions for the new year, including Stake vs Eddie (weekly $50,000 prizes), Conquer the Casino ($50,000 prize pool), and sport-specific offers like Half Time Payout for NBA fans. The platform has also teased additional “Stake & Drake” content coming in 2026, though the future of that partnership remains uncertain given the ongoing litigation.
