New Markets 💸: DC Sports Betting Expansion
Exciting betting news for sports bettors in Washington D.C. BetMGM and Caesars have announced their citywide expansion, promising more options and better offers for local betting enthusiasts. This DC Sports Betting Expansion marks a significant shift in D.C.’s online sports betting landscape. It transitions from a previously restricted market to a more competitive environment.
Citywide Access to Top Betting Apps
tarting Monday, July 15, Washington D.C. will allow citywide access to multiple sports betting apps, including BetMGM and Caesars Sportsbook. Previously, BetMGM was confined to a small area around Nationals Park. Now, it will be available throughout the entire city. BetMGM will host an event at Nationals Park, complete with live music and festivities to celebrate this launch.
Similarly, Caesars Sportsbook, which has operated a retail sportsbook at Capital One Arena, will also expand its services across the District. This DC Sports Betting Expansion means that bettors in D.C. will have more choices for betting online. They can take advantage of better promotions and offers from these two major operators.
Legislative Changes Fueling Expansion
This expansion results from successful lobbying efforts by D.C. councilmember Kenyan McDuffie. The legislative changes included in the fiscal 2025 budget aim to create a more competitive sports betting market in the capital. The amendment allows multiple operators to enter the market.
FanDuel has been the king of mobile sports betting in D.C. since it took over as an Intralot subcontractor. However, things are about to get more crowded. New companies are getting a tax break compared to FanDuel, which means more competition is coming to town. Big names like DraftKings and Fanatics might even jump in the game.
Get ready for more action in D.C.’s sports betting scene! This DC Sports Betting Expansion will bring new companies into the online gambling scene, making things even hotter (and potentially more profitable) for both fans and the city itself.
