The casino operator Twin River signed a multi-year partnership with the sports betting startup Sporttrade. Under the partnership, Sporttrade will be able to launch sports betting in New Jersey once Twin River completes the acquisition of Bally’s Atlantic City Hotel and Casino.
Multi-Year Partnership between Twin River and Sporttrade
The Philadelphia-based sports betting startup Sporttrade signed a multi-year partnership with Twin River Worldwide Holdings. The partnership will see Sporttrade launch sports betting in New Jersey, following the regulatory approvals on the acquisition of Bally’s Atlantic City Hotel & Casino by Twin River. The acquisition deal for $25 million was struck back in April. However, Twin River had to wait for the megamerger of Eldorado-Caesars which was completed back in July.
Currently, the deal is pending the approval of the state’s regulators. Once Twin River completes the acquisition, the company will receive the rights to three sports betting skins in New Jersey. Under the deal which was signed today, Sporttrade becomes the second skin of Twin River which will be able to launch sports betting in the state. The first skin was received by PointsBet following deal signed earlier this month.
Commenting on the subject, the President and CEO of Twin River Worldwide Holdings, George Papanier shared his excitement. He said that Sporttrade will be a great addition to Twin Rivers’ list of unique partnerships that the company is building in the Atlantic City market. “They will bring a new, exciting online product offering for our guests and we look forward to having them join our Atlantic City team,” added Papanier.
