WASHINGTON, July 17, 2024/PRNewswire/ -- BetMGM, a leading iGaming and sports bettingoperator, today launched mobile sports bettingoperations across Washington, D.C. Previously accessible within only a two-block radius of the sportsbook's location at Nationals Park, sports fans district-wide now have access to the BetMGM sports wagering experience along with rewards tied to both MGM Resorts and Marriott Bonvoy destinations.

The launch follows the D.C. Council's approval of its FY2025 budget that included a provision to open the digital sports bettingmarket. BetMGM will retain exclusivity for the two-block radius surrounding Nationals Park where it operates the BetMGM Sportsbook as part of a multi-year partnership with the Washington Nationals.

"After three years of bringing unparalleled, omnichannel experiences to sports fans and supporting the D.C. metropolitan community through our partnership with the Washington Nationals, fans can now bet on their favorite teams with BetMGM across the District with our award-winning mobile app," said Adam Greenblatt, Chief Executive Officer, BetMGM.

As mobile sports bettingoperations are now live in Washington D.C., Maryland and Virginia, BetMGM continues to generate significant economic impact for the region by creating local jobs and contributing tax dollars. BetMGM has invested in the growth and development of the District with its contributions to community-centric programming such as the National Cherry Blossom Festival, the Capitol Riverfront Friday Night Concert Series, Turkeypalooza presented by BetMGM, and the MGM Resorts Supplier Diversity Mentorship Program.

BetMGM's integration with MGM Rewards and Marriott Bonvoy provides users the opportunity to redeem gameplay for experiences at MGM Resorts and Marriott Bonvoy properties nationwide. These destinations include MGM National Harbor in Maryland, Borgata in New Jersey, and Bellagio and MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Melonie Johnson, MGM National Harbor President & COO, said, "This is a full-circle moment as our resort continues to strengthen its reputation as the DMV's premier entertainment destination. With BetMGM's launch of mobile sports bettingin D.C., customers across the entire region can now enjoy the full MGM Rewards experience. This includes our world-class hotel rooms, restaurants, and our state-of-the art BetMGM Sportsbook & Lounge."

New customers can download the BetMGM app on both iOS and Android and receive a first bet offer of up to $1,500 paid back in bonus bets (offer not available in NV, PR and ON.
