Caesars launches Horseshoe online casino in Michigan

Horseshoe Casino Michigan replaces WynnBET.

US.- Caesars’ new online casino platform, Horseshoe online casino, is now available in Michigan, replacing WynnBet. Caesars Entertainment agreed to acquire Wynn’s Michigan online gaming licence in February; the deal was completed in June. This is Caesars’ first online gaming offering to use the Horseshoe brand.

Caesars operates the licence through a partnership with the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians. The Sault Tribe owns and operates Kewadin Casinos, which has five land-based casinos in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Michigan permits 15 online gambling licences; each must be tied to a tribe with a brick-and-mortar casino.

WynnBet customers will be guided through migrating their accounts to the new site. All former WynnBet customers who migrate their accounts will also be enrolled in Caesars Rewards.
