Genius Sports, a data, technology and commercial supplier that powers the ecosystem connecting sports, betting and media, on Wednesday said it has formed a partnership with Resorts WorldBET.
Resorts WorldBET is the new mobile sports betting app for Resorts World New York, with brick-and-mortar casinos Resorts World Catskills (RWC) and Resorts World New York City (RWNYC), to help power the digital sportsbook.
Genius Sports said it will help Resorts WorldBET, which launched earlier this month in the Empire State, offer a mobile sportsbook, providing its LiveData and LiveTrading solutions.
The two parties said their partnership will include Genius Sports’ proprietary suite of NASCAR’s official data-driven, in-race betting markets, in addition to exclusive NFL official sports data-powered products, including access to the league’s real-time statistics, proprietary Next Gen Stats (NGS) and official sports betting data feed.
In order to deliver a 24/7 offering to its customers, Resorts WorldBET will receive real-time data feeds and in-point pricing for the English Premier League alongside dozens of FIBA basketball and FIVB volleyball leagues worldwide.
The companies noted as the fourth-most populous state in the US, New York is widely projected to become one of the largest for online sports betting in 2022.
“We are excited to partner with Genius Sports and offer technology with real-time data so customers stay ahead of the game,” Darlene Monzo, Chief Marketing Officer of Genting Americas East, which operates Resorts WorldBET, said in a statement. “Mobile sports betting in New York is primed to lead the nation and our platform offers exactly what customers are looking for: a mix of speed, reliability and access to the most advanced data available.”
