Oregon Lottery Preps for Sports Betting

The Oregon Lottery, which is gearing up to introduce a new sports betting program, last week debuted the name and logo of the sportsbook. Oregon Lottery Scoreboard will give players 21 and over the chance to bet on nearly every professional sport, including the NFL, NBA and MLB.

The Oregon Lottery has disclosed the name and logo of its new sportsbook, which is expected to launch this fall. The new Oregon Lottery Scoreboard will give players 21 and over the chance to bet on nearly every major league sport, including the NFL, NBA, MLB, men’s and women’s professional soccer and NASCAR.

The rollout will include a mobile Scoreboard app.

Patrick Johnson, public information officer for the Oregon Lottery, told KOIN 6 News the app will be released first this fall ahead of the NFL regular season. The agency will then look into adding access at various retail locations.

The new sportsbook program will utilize geofencing to ensure bets are placed in the state of Oregon and not on tribal lands.
