BetMGM is pleased to announce that it has expanded its market-leading sports betting app into Washington, D.C. in partnership with the Washington Nationals that sees it being the only mobile sports betting app available at Nationals Park.
The announcement is part of BetMGM’s multi-year, exclusive partnership with the Washington Nationals, which also includes a retail BetMGM Sportsbook connected to Nationals Park that is due to open later this year.
Adam Greenblatt, Chief Executive Officer of BetMGM, commented that launching in Washington, D.C. at Nationals Park sets the stage for their plans to expand BetMGM within the region, as they have already seen great success in Virginia.
Greenblatt went on to say that the Washington Nationals have been a fantastic partner, committed to the innovation of the in-stadium fan experience and they are looking forward to opening their retail sportsbook at the stadium later this year.
The BetMGM app can now be downloaded on the iOS as well as Android in Washington, D.C. and although it can be accessed throughout the District, due to local restrictions, users must be within a two-block radius of National Park to successfully place mobile wagers.
Alan Gottlieb, Chief Operating Officer of Lerner Sports Group, said that as their official sports betting partner, BetMG further enhances the greatest in-venue fan experience in Washington, D.C. through its state-of-the-art entertainment products and services.
BetMGM’s integration with MGM Resorts’ M life Rewards program enables Nationals fans to redeem their gameplay at MGM Resorts properties nationwide, including Bellagio and MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Borgata in New Jersey and MGM National Harbor in Maryland, just across the river.
