Online Sportsbooks Make the Most of Easy Going Regulations

FinancialBuzz.com News Commentary

NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- As the legal infrastructure becomes increasingly favorable towards sports betting solutions across the country, announcements regarding investments in this sector have accelerated. In fact, the shift to a more favorable attitude towards online gambling services is visible across the board. According to data published AGC, nearly 7 in 10 (69%) Americans say that gaming provides a positive benefit to the U.S. economy and 63% agree that the industry provides high-quality jobs. Moving forward, as the legal infrastructure continues to become friendlier towards online gambling and sports betting in particular, the trend of partnerships with various leagues and teams across the country is expected to accelerate. "When legislatures return in earnest, we firmly believe the number of states ready to consider accelerating mobile sports betting and online gaming legislation to drive tax revenue will expand substantially," said Matt King, CEO of FanDuel, according to ESPN.

As the sports betting market continues to grow in the United States, more and more companies are transitioning from the traditional gambling & casino business model to one that includes sports betting. In addition to advances in technology, which now allow easy access to various betting services, more states are adopting a friendlier legal approach to the market. As a result of these recent developments, the sports betting market has significantly grown in popularity over the last couple of years, igniting a series of mergers and acquisitions in the industry. For example, earlier this summer, DraftKings agreed to acquire Golden Nugget Online Gaming for USD 1.56 Billion in stock. Golden Nugget Online shareholders will receive 0.365 shares of DraftKings stock, according to a report by CNBC. Golden Nugget Online shares surged nearly 48% on the news, while DraftKings stock remained relatively flat after the deal's announcement.

FansUnite Entertainment Inc. (OTCQX: FUNFF) (CSE: FANS) announced yesterday breaking news that, "it has formally submitted its application to the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (the "AGCO") to become a fully registered Gaming Related Supplier - Manufacturer.

As the holder of a Gaming Related Supplier - Manufacturer license, FansUnite would be able to provide Chameleon, its full service, proprietary sports, esports and casino white label gaming platform, to other AGCO approved operators.

This past August, the Canadian government approved Bill C-218, paving the way for provincial and territorial governments to manage single-event sports betting and licensing in their respective jurisdictions. Ontario, Canada's largest province, is the first to move forward with accepting applications from external iGaming operators.

'As a Canadian grown company, we've been looking forward to the day where we can operate in our home country,' said Scott Burton, CEO of FansUnite. 'Ontario's success will set the framework and serve as the blueprint for how the rest of the provinces could approach regulated gaming. That said, we are eager to be a part of that success.'

FansUnite currently holds B2B and B2C licenses from numerous gaming commissions, including top tier jurisdictions such as the United Kingdom and Malta."
