Resorts World New York, which is operated by the Genting Group, has recently launched Resorts WorldBet, a new app dedicated to mobile sports betting. It will be supported by its land-based venues, Resorts World Catskills and Resorts World New York City.
To offer its mobile sportsbook, the operator has partnered with Genius Sports, which holds a wealth of sports media, data and statistical licences from international leagues and competitions.
The partnership will include Genius Sports’ LiveData and LiveTrading products, alongside a portfolio of NASCAR, NFL, Premier League, FIBA basketball and FIVB volleyball sports betting content.
Darlene Monzo, CMO, Genting Americas East, commented: “We are excited to partner with Genius Sports and offer the most cutting-edge technology with real-time data, so customers stay ahead of the game.
“Mobile sports betting in New York is primed to lead the nation and our world-class platform offers exactly what customers are looking for: an innovative mix of speed, reliability and access to the most advanced data available.”
Genius Sports, which already partners with operators, such as Entain, Flutter Entertainment, DraftKings and bet365, provides operators and gambling regulators with sports data and betting odds.
Mark Locke, CEO, Genius Sports, said: “With over 20 million people and a rich sporting history, the New York online sports betting market has enormous potential.
“Resorts WorldBet is set to be one of the key players in the market and Genius Sports will be central to its offering, providing premium exclusive content on top tier competitions including NASCAR, EPL and NFL.”
