Supplier International Game Technology Plc. has announced that with the recent deployment of the FanDuel Sportsbook online and mobile betting platform in Pennsylvania, the FanDuel Sportsbook is now leveraging the full, omni-channel capabilities of IGT PlayDigital’s sports betting platform.
In partnership with Boyd Gaming and Valley Forge Casino Resort, FanDuel is bringing an online sports betting experience that is simple, secure and more convenient than ever to individuals located in Pennsylvania. The state of Pennsylvania joins New Jersey as the two states where the FanDuel Sportsbook online and mobile platform is available since the federal Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act was struck down last year.
IGT PlayDigital’s omni-channel solution now enables connected play by providing patrons of the Pennsylvania sportsbook the option to place pre-match and in-play wagers over the counter, at self-service betting kiosks, and via FanDuel’s simple, secure and convenient mobile app.
“By leveraging IGT PlayDigital’s sports betting platform, FanDuel Group can confidently offer choice and convenience to players in Pennsylvania when they are placing sports bets,” said Enrico Drago, senior vice president of IGT PlayDigital. “Our sports betting platform continues to prove its effectiveness in delivering seamless player experiences across channels, and when paired with the FanDuel brand, has emerged as a market-leading solution.
“The introduction of mobile sports wagering in Pennsylvania marks yet another meaningful milestone in IGT PlayDigital’s partnership with FanDuel Group, and reinforces the quality and multi-state scalability of the products and services that we offer to operators who are looking to offer sports betting.”
In addition to FanDuel Sportsbook at Valley Forge Casino, IGT PlayDigital’s sports betting platform is currently powering FanDuel Group’s record-setting sports betting operations at the New Meadowlands Racetrack in New Jersey, the recently opened sportsbook at Tioga Downs Casino in New York, and the sports betting venue at the Greenbrier Casino Club in West Virginia.
