Best-in-class sports betting and online casino delivers MGM Grand Detroit gaming experience. JERSEY CITY, NJ – (January 22, 2021) – BetMGM launched its market leading sports betting and iGaming app in Michigan today, giving customers access to a wide variety of betting options, as well as access to benefits tied to MGM Grand Detroit and MGM Resorts’ iconic casino-resorts nationwide.
On Friday, MGM Resorts debuted their new sports betting experiences that will touch their Las Vegas properties which include over 100 gaming kiosks throughout. In addition, they also announced the launch of BetMGM in Nevada, which is a partnership with Roar Digital, LLC (MGM Resorts’ joint venture with GVC Holdings).
2 days ago 'And we think in-play betting is going to be the way the vast majority of sports fans are going to bet.' Simplebet has raised $50 million, and investors in this round include former MGM Resorts.
Sports betting is the real opportunity MGM Resorts arguably saw the potential for sports betting before most others and set itself up to capitalize on its legalization earlier than most.

MGM Resorts International’s MGM BetMGM recently launched its sports betting app in Iowa. The following announcement was made in tandem with Diamond Joe Casino, a high-energy casino in Dubuque's historic downtown district. The move reflects the company’s intentions to continue expanding presence.

BetMGM is where the action begins! Experience the thrill of sports betting on all major professional sports. Betting with the BetMGM sportsbook app lets you engage with your favorite sporting events in real time, giving you the latest betting odds, enhanced offers, and multiple betting formats, from Moneyline and point spread bets to parlays and futures.

Iowa has joined states like Nevada, New Jersey, Colorado, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and West Virginia, in which BetMGM's mobile app is available. BetMGM CEO Adam Greenblatt said “Our connection with MGM Resorts enables BetMGM users in the Hawkeye State to earn rewards, from hotel suites to dinners at award-winning restaurants, all while engaging in the excitement of our cutting-edge sports betting experience.”

Sports betting has been growing rapidly worldwide in recent years on the back of legalization of gambling in the United States by the Supreme Court in 2018 and MGM Resorts has been sparing no effort to tap this opportunity.

Sports Betting: A Hot Spot

According to the American Gaming Association, about $150 billion is wagered illegally on sports through the likes of bookies and offshore sites every year. Data Bridge Market Research projects global sports betting market to witness a CAGR of 9.99% in the forecast period of 2020 to 2027. Growth in the gambling market is likely to be driven by increase in smartphone adoption and improving Internet infrastructure globally.

Together, the parties brought the total investment to $450 million. In the first round, both the companies had invested $200 million. Ever since its launch in 2018, the company has done extremely well and is on track to operate in 11 states by the end of 2020.
