US.- Online sports betting has launched in the US state of Delaware. BetRivers, the exclusive Delaware sports betting and igaming operator, is live at Bally’s Dover Casino Resort, Casino at Delaware Park, and Harrington Raceway and Casino.
Casino players in the state can play new online slots, table games and online sports betting. They must be 21 years old and in Delaware, as determined by the device’s location. The state’s retail sports betting market launched in June 2018.
BetRivers, powered by Rush Street Interactive (RSI), became the Delaware State Lottery’s official partner for online gaming in August. Delaware became the first US state to implement comprehensive intrastate igaming including poker, slots and bingo when the General Assembly passed the Delaware Gaming Competitiveness Act of 2012 in June 2012.
