Betfred’s US division signs deal with Pennsylvania casino operator
Betfred, the Warrington-based privately-owned retail bookmaker, has signed an agreement to operate a sportsbook for the Pennsylvania customers of Wind Creek Casino & Resort Bethlehem.
Subject to regulatory approval, Betfred will be offering Wind Creek Bethlehem customers their full sportsbook service at the casino, as well as mobile and internet betting within the state of Pennsylvania.
Betfred will also provide compliance, support, marketing and trading for this partnership.
James Dorris, Wind Creek hospitality president and chief executive, said: “We look forward to the opportunity to work with BetFred to offer sports betting at Wind Creek Bethlehem.
“Their experience and leadership in the sports wagering market gives us confidence that Betfred is an excellent partner as Wind Creek Bethlehem expands gaming offerings in Pennsylvania.”
Mark Stebbings, Betfred Group chief operating officer said: “Betfred have been providing sports betting in the UK for over 50 years and we are delighted to partner with Wind Creek Bethlehem where we will share our joint expertise.
“As part of our partnership we will provide excellent service and value for the sports bettors, both on premise at Wind Creek Bethlehem, and online to the wider population of Pennsylvania.”
The deal follows a similar arrangement announced last week involving Betfred providing sports betting throughout the state of Colorado, in an agreement with Saratoga Casino Black Hawk.
Betfred has been established since 1967 and is one of the biggest sports betting brands in the UK with more than 1,500 retail outlets and a leading online platform. It also operates online and mobile products in Spain.
