Sightline Payments^® and Rush Street Interactive announced the launch of the gaming industry’s first integrated debit payments solution, debuting on the RSI’s BetRivers^® platform.

Rush Street Interactive (RSI) partnered with Sightline to design and launch a groundbreaking program that enhances the way BetRivers customers interact with its proprietary online gaming platform. The collaboration with Sightline underscores RSI’s commitment to putting players first by introducing a first-of-its-kind functionality that delivers secure, seamless, and convenient access to player account balances, setting a new standard for user experience in the gaming industry. Branded as BetRivers Debit, this white-labeled version of Sightline Debit transforms how customers access and use their funds. With this frictionless and customer-centric solution, BetRivers customers gain instant access to their available wagering balance anytime, anywhere and anyway, eliminating the need to repeatedly withdraw and redeposit. RSI anticipates the innovation will help reduce churn and the high payment costs that accompany it.

Beyond convenience, BetRivers Debit includes enhanced protections for patrons: FDIC insurance coverage, advanced fraud security features, and tools that support responsible gaming by promoting financial transparency and sustainable play.

“Rush Street Interactive is an industry leader that strives to be first-to-market with innovations. That’s why it makes so much sense for us to launch our revolutionary integrated payments solution, Sightline Debit, with BetRivers,” said Omer Sattar, Co-Founder & CEO of Sightline Payments. “Backed by our partnerships with Cross River Bank, this solution gives customers freedom and flexibility to use their funds when they want, where they want, all while dramatically reducing the cost of payments.”

“We remain deeply committed to putting our players first, and the launch of the online gaming industry’s first integrated debit payments solution marks a major step forward in enhancing the BetRivers experience,” said Richard Schwartz, CEO of RSI. “We’re proud that our team helped shape this innovative payment solution in close collaboration with Sightline, further underscoring RSI’s leadership in delivering cutting-edge technologies that elevate the player experience. Our collaboration with Sightline Debit demonstrates our commitment to integrity, innovation, and delivering exceptional player experiences. Being first-to-market with revolutionary new technologies benefits the entire RSI operation – from our team to our players to our investors.”

BetRiver’s initial rollout in New York marks the first step in a broader expansion. Sightline and RSI look forward to bringing this innovative solution to additional jurisdictions across the U.S. in the coming months.
