BetMGM is delivering a new feature to Nevada residents and visitors.
The sports betting and iGaming operator has become the first sportsbook in Nevada to provide players in the state with a single digital wallet that provides nationwide connectivity. The feature, powered by Entain technology, makes BetMGM the only licensed online sportsbook in Nevada to allow bettors to carry their funds to multiple U.S. markets.
“We’re proud to lead the charge in Nevada with a single account and wallet that simplifies and elevates the betting experience,” said BetMGM CEO Adam Greenblatt. “Our players can now immerse themselves in the excitement of MGM Resorts’ Las Vegas destinations or statewide while seamlessly continuing to place wagers in other BetMGM markets.”
BetMGM’s new feature builds on previous upgrades in Nevada to its online app and website. The operator leveraged Entain’s Angstrom-powered prop and parlay offerings to redesign its platform in the Silver State while adding digital deposits and withdrawals.
BetMGM is planning additional upgrades to its app ahead of the NFL season. As of Aug. 22, it is live with retail and online wagering in 29 markets across North America.
BetMGM Casino issues big payout
The operator is investing in its sports betting product as its online casino pays a price.
Earlier this week, a BetMGM Casino player in New Jersey pocketed $6.4 million after winning The Big One progressive jackpot. The bettor won the grand prize after placing a $200 bet while playing a five-reel Fruit Blaster slot. The jackpot, which features games produced by Entain, was the largest in regulated online casino history in the U.S.
