Scientific Games and Caesars extend agreement and launch digital sports betting and iGaming in Pennsylvania, with sports betting also launching in Indiana.
Scientific Games and world-class gaming operator Caesars Entertainment, have extended their existing digital sports betting partnership in preparation for the relaunch of the 2020/21 major league sports seasons. The move follows the recent launches of mobile sports betting in Pennsylvania and Indiana and the launch of online casino games in Pennsylvania.
"We are excited about our partnership with Caesars Entertainment. We are working side-by-side, supporting their great teams and playing an important role in delivering digital casino and sports betting products to their players in several states," said Jordan Levin, Group CEO, Digital for Scientific Games."
Levin continued: "Caesars has always been a market leader, well known for providing players with superior experiences in the traditional gaming space. Our scalable technology, complemented by a U.S. player-centric experience, allows Caesars to live up to its service heritage by delivering exceptional digital betting and gaming experiences that reach new audiences in key markets."
In addition to extending the term of their operating agreement, Scientific Games and Caesars Entertainment are partnering to bring digital sports betting and iGaming experiences to Pennsylvania players. Following Caesars' successful January 2019 launch of The Book at Harrah's Philadelphia, the operator has brought a new offering online in Pennsylvania powered by Scientific Games' OpenSports™ and OpenGaming™ product suites. And even more recently, the companies launched the digital sports offering in Indiana, which follows multiple Caesars retail site launches in the third and fourth quarters of 2019.
"We are pleased to extend our collaboration with Scientific Games and excited to see our players reap the benefits of our continued partnership," said Christian Stuart, Caesars Entertainment's executive vice president of games and interactive entertainment. "Scientific Games' technology is not only highly scalable, but more importantly, it offers our players feature-rich content that is fully integrated with Caesars Rewards."
