Players will also have access to rewards like VIP experiences with the Knicks and Rangers.

BetMGM has announced that the company will launch its online sportsbook in New York on Monday, Janunary 17, 2022.

New York players will soon be able to access the benefits of betting with BetMGMan official sports betting partner of the Knicks, Rangers and Madison Square Garden Arena.

BetMGM has also integrated with MGM Resorts’ rewards program. This will allow New York's BetMGM customers the ability to redeem their gameplay for experiences at MGM Resorts properties, including Empire City Casino in Yonkers, Borgata in New Jersey, MGM National Harbor in Maryland, and Bellagio and MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Players will also have access to rewards like VIP experiences with the Knicks and Rangers, due to BetMGM’s partnership with Madison Square Garden Arena.

The BetMGM app offers a user-friendly-sports betting experience, making it easy to customize pre-game, in-play, futures and parlay wagers.

"With today's monumental news, we'll now be able to fully activate our relationships with MGM Resorts' Empire City Casino and Madison Square Garden. We look forward to offering customers in New York unique experiences that they can't access on any other platform," said BetMGM CEO Adam Greenblatt. "A huge thank you to the New York Gaming Commission as well as to our entire BetMGM team who have worked tirelessly to bring this to fruition."

Responsible gaming education remains a key focus as BetMGM continues to expand its sports betting platform to new jurisdictions. BetMGM also provides resources to help customers play responsibly.

The BetMGM app will be available for download in New York on both iOS and Android and is accessible via desktop on BetMGM’s website.
