Fanatics Sportsbook and Casino Launches in Pennsylvania
Fanatics Betting and Gaming, a subsidiary of Fanatics Holdings Inc, a global digital sports platform, launched the Fanatics Sportsbook and Casino in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania. As a standard requirement of launch, the Fanatics Sportsbook and Casino will soft launch for two days under the supervision of the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, but there are no restrictions regarding customer signups or playtime.
Sports fans living in and visiting Pennsylvania will be able to download the Fanatics Sportsbook, which includes Fanatics Casino, on iOS and Android and begin their Fanatics Sportsbook experience. Pennsylvania marks the eleventh state for the Fanatics Sportsbook and the second state for Fanatics Casino.
In August 2023, Fanatics Betting and Gaming began acquiring the U.S. Businesses of PointsBet and planning the migration of PointsBet customers to the Fanatics Sportsbook app. Now in Pennsylvania only, each PointsBet customer’s username, password, account balance, rewards points, and responsible gaming settings will be automatically migrated to the Fanatics Sportsbook.
As part of the launch in Pennsylvania, Fanatics Betting and Gaming will debut its new online casino, embedded in the Fanatics Sportsbook app. The newly designed Fanatics Casino will feature a range of classic and popular casino favorites like roulette, slots, and blackjack.
