This launch comes as part of PointsBet's OddsFactory proprietary technology integration.

PointsBet has announced it will offer live, in-game, same game parlay options for NFL and NBA contests as a part of its OddsFactory proprietary technology integration. The gaming operator is the first sportsbook to do so.

“We're thrilled to now be able to offer live same game betting opportunities to our customers, and to be the first sportsbook to do so is a testament to our team's commitment to providing the best product and enhancing the user experience," said Mark Hughes, Group Chief Operating Officer at PointsBet.

Users will be able to choose any live NFL and NBA event and parlay multiple outcomes while watching it through the same game parlay feature. They can also track and boost their same game parlay odds, track player performance and check team stats.

"At PointsBet, we're focused on refining our technology to ensure we're aligning with the type of online sports betting experience our customers seek, and based on the trends we're tracking, sports fans and bettors not only want to bet live, but they also want the ability to build a same game parlay live," said Hughes.

"Elevating the betting experience for our customers and tapping into innovation is part of PointsBet's core mission," added Kyle Christensen, CMO at PointsBet USA. "With the addition of our exclusive, live betting feature, we now have another way to help sports fans, and bettors embody the ‘Live Your Bet Life’ mantra."

PointsBet currently operates its sports betting product in Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Virginia, and West Virginia, with online casinos in Michigan, New Jersey and West Virginia. It is an approved sportsbook operator of the NFL, authorized sports betting operator of the NBA, and the official sports betting partner of NBC Sports.
