DraftKings mobile sports betting has launched the first online and mobile sports betting platforms in the state of New Jersey with the cooperation of Resorts Casino Hotel. DraftKings’ online and mobile sports-betting offering has cleared state regulatory approval Monday morning and is now available to the general public.
Matt Kalish, co-founder of DraftKings, said the soft launch of the DraftKings mobile sports betting product, which began Aug. 1, was “fantastic.”
“The goal was really to just trickle in enough customers to play the product where we could get some initial feedback, enough to make sure the product meets our standards as well as meeting the standards of the Division of Gaming Enforcement,” he said.
“As a testament to our technology and product team, who worked about a year on this, as well as the regulators who have very quickly put together a nation-leading regulation of this product, everything went really, really smoothly, and we’re excited to be able to launch to every customer who is currently in New Jersey starting today.”
