The company also has plans in place to launch in several other markets including Arizona, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and West Virginia. These launches are dependent on regulatory and licensing approval and/or the passing of sports wagering legislation.
The iGaming platform launch in New Jersey is the latest in a series of efforts to strengthen the brand’s position in the USA. The operator’s most recent move saw NFL superstar Drew Brees sign a cash and equity deal with the company.
