Sports betting and iGaming operator BetMGM on Thursday said it has formed a strategic partnership with SportsGrid.
SportsGrid, which says it is the first and only 24-hour sports wagering streaming network in the US, said it will begin integrating BetMGM content across SportsGrid’s original, live programming.
The content will be supported by television and social media advertising, the parties said, noting BetMGM’s brand, odds and promotions will be incorporated into SportsGrid’s most popular shows.
In addition, SportsGrid will have access to BetMGM’s trading team and brand ambassadors to create unique insider content for the network.
BetMGM currently is available in 21 markets and is available for download on both iOS and Android, as well as accessible via desktop.
“SportsGrid is making big waves in the streaming world, creating a new avenue for fans to consume sports betting content,” Adam Greenblatt, BetMGM CEO, said in a statement. “This collaboration allows us to further expand BetMGM’s reach to our fans through SportsGrid’s nationwide broadcast network.”
Louis Maione, President and co-founder of SportsGrid, added: “We are proud to deliver real-time BetMGM data and intelligence to millions of sports fans. This relationship with a recognized leader in the industry helps us better super-serve the gaming community and further cements our position as the premier sports gaming and lifestyle network.”
