“We have successfully launched BetStars in regulated markets across Europe and look forward to expanding and enhancing our New Jersey BetStars offering, including through leveraging the Sky Betting and Gaming acquisition following approval from the UK Competition and Markets Authority, to provide a premier product and experience to our customers in this new and developing market."

Bets are currently being offered across a range of sports including professional and collegiate football, baseball, basketball, golf, hockey, soccer, tennis and more.

BetStars will also include “player-focused promotions” as part of its launch, such as sign-up bonuses and “odds boosts.”
