WynnBet’s online sports betting app is now live in Louisiana with an official announcement from the parent company Wynn Resorts expected on Thursday, 10th February.
WynnBet becomes the state’s seventh live sports betting app and joins Barstool Sportsbook, BetMGM, Caesars Sportsbook, DraftKings, FanDuel, and Rush Street Interactive in Louisiana.
The company gained market access to the state through a deal with Horseshoe Casino in Bossier City, a property owned by one of its sports betting competitors Caesars Entertainment. The partnership was announced in September 2021 prior to the state’s sports betting launch.
