Crossover promotions will allow FanDuel users to play Mohegan casino games.
Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment (MGE) and FanDuel Group on Tuesday launched real money online gaming for residents and visitors to the state of Connecticut.
The two companies said MoheganSunCasino.com, the Mohegan Sun Casino app, and the FanDuel Sportsbook app now are available in the Constitution State on iOS and Android.
MGE said new online Mohegan Sun Casino players can play their first day risk-free up to $1,000. Site credit will be applied to new users accounts within 72 hours of the end of the bonus period
The operator said its app includes a number of features, including slots and table games that can be found on the Mohegan Sun’s gaming floor, plus blackjack, roulette and video poker, with the ability to cash out winnings securely and quickly.
“Numerous account protections will be available to players, reflecting the strong shared commitment to responsible gaming by Mohegan Sun and FanDuel,” the two parties said in a statement.
In addition to the standalone app, a version of the Mohegan Sun Casino will be available within the FanDuel Sportsbook app. The two companies said this will allow new casino players to either sign up for a casino account or use their existing FanDuel Fantasy or Sportsbook account to log in and play.
