After months of waiting, Pennsylvania online sports betting is finally available!

SugarHouse Casino began live testing of its mobile sports betting app product after receiving approval from the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board The advent of Internet sports wagering in the state has been months in the making. SugarHouse becomes just the first of many coming dominoes to fall in the state.

All eight of the current sportsbooks in the state are expected to offer Pennsylvania online sports betting by this summer. A ninth, Presque Isle Downs in Erie, is targeting June 1 as the kickoff date of its retail sportsbook. Its online offering is expected at some point later in the summer, likely before NFL season kicks off in September.

SugarHouse, in conjunction with sister property Rivers Casino, were the first sportsbooks to open brick-and-mortar locations in Pennsylvania following Hollywood Casino’s November 2018 debut. SugarHouse and Rivers are both powered by Kambi Group on the sportsbook side, which is also the engine behind DraftKings Sportsbook in New Jersey.
