PointsBet was awarded interactive gaming and sports betting operator licenses by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board.
Australia’s betting company announced today that it has signed a partnership with Penn National Gaming. This agreement allows the betting firm to provide online sports betting, online casino games and other products in Pennsylvania.
PointsBet USA CEO Johnny Aitken said: “We’re excited that we are getting closer to offering PointsBet’s leading products in Pennsylvania to sports bettors and fans in partnership with Penn National Gaming.”
PointsBet, which is based in Pennsylvania, has been able to establish a presence on this profitable market. We are grateful for the help we have received, both from the Gaming Control Board and Pennsylvania.
We want to offer the most exciting sports betting, online gambling and casino experiences in Pennsylvania.
PointsBet has been the official partner for sports betting of Comcast’s media group NBC Sports since its inception. This deal was said to be crucial for the operator’s success in Pennsylvania.
PointsBet will be the sole provider of props, odds and trends for NBC Sports, Golf Channel and NBCSN, Peacock, NBCUniversal’s streaming service, and NBC Sports podcasts, over a five-year period.
PointsBet USA’s chief marketing officer Kyle Christensen said, “NBC Philadelphia is a valuable asset to the NBC Sports portfolio and will help us reach out to new customers in order for our brand name recognition in this market.
We are eager to tell the PointsBet tale and show sports bettors and fans in Pennsylvania what makes the brand unique.
It follows news that PointsBet entered a partnership last summer with the National Football League and the recent appointment of Eric Lee to the position of vice-president for diversity, equity and inclusivity (DEI), earlier in the month.
