What Cimarron Casino does

Cimarron Casino Enterprises is a tribal gaming and hospitality enterprise wholly owned and operated by the Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma, governed by the Iowa Tribe Business Committee. The flagship operation, Cimarron Casino in Perkins, OK, opened in 1996 as a bingo hall and was expanded in October 2013 to more than 25,000 square feet, now housing 600+ electronic gaming machines (slots, video poker, in-house and wide-area progressives with million-dollar jackpots) alongside live table games including Blackjack and Ultimate Texas Hold'em. The enterprise also operates Ioway Casino in Chandler, OK (250+ electronic games), Ioway Travel Plaza in Tryon, OK (fuel, convenience retail, Mazzios Go!, and 39 EGMs), and a portfolio of ancillary businesses including a smoke shop, Bah Kho Je Gallery, Ban Kho Je RV Park, and Cimarron Trails Golf Course.

Revenue is generated primarily from gaming transactions (slot and table play), with secondary streams from on-site dining (Eagles Nest Cafe, 4th Quarter Sports Bar), fuel and convenience retail at the travel plaza, and ancillary retail and recreation. The integrated loyalty program, "The Club" (with the 50+ "Club 50" tier), lets members accrue points redeemable at 100 points per $1 for free play, dining discounts, and birthday rewards. Distribution is purely physical and direct-to-consumer, with the casino's official website functioning as the primary marketing channel for promotions and enrollment. The operations employ approximately 83 people across the enterprise and remain entirely tribally owned, with no external investors disclosed. The geographic footprint is concentrated in central Oklahoma along the Highway 66 and Highway 177 corridors, capturing regional drive-traffic patrons.
