“We are delighted to welcome Degree 53 to the Bally's family,” said Adi Dhandhania, COO – North America, Bally Interactive, the company's digital division. “As we prepare to launch our Bally Bet 2.0 mobile sportsbook app early next year, we look forward to leveraging the Degree 53 team to develop our mobile sportsbook products and enhance our customers’ overall betting experience.”

Degree 53 has worked with several significant industry names, such as Betfred, Scientific Games, FDJ Gaming Solutions and Penn National, among others. The company holds the Remote Gambling Software licence from the UK Gambling Commission, and is also an Associate Member of the European Lotteries.

We are pleased that Bally's has recognised the differentiated approach that we bring to the market and to join with them during such an exciting period of the company's evolution.
