Players now have quick access to deposits and can use PayPal, Venmo and cash to make wagers.

PayNearMe’s Moneyline platform has released Saracen Casino Resort’s betting app, BetSaracen. The launch followed behind a recent license approval by the Arkansas Racing Commission for PayNearMe to offer its Moneyline platform statewide.

PayNearMe partnered with Amelco UK Limited to assist with the company’s integration with BetSaracen. Amelco UK is a sports betting platform provider. The company currently works with Saracen and other US gaming operators.

Saracen Casino Resort Chief Marketing Officer Carlton Saffa said: “With MoneyLine, we are giving our players the option of the fastest and most convenient way to make deposits using their favorite digital payment types or cash at participating retail locations in Arkansas.

“Additionally, MoneyLine’s integration with Amelco, BetSaracen’s sports betting platform, makes it easy to provide our players with additional deposit and withdrawal channels in the future, including the forthcoming ability to make real-time, cardless cash withdrawals at ATMs.”

PayNearMe now operates and processes payments in 19 US states for licensed online iGaming and sports betting operators. The company worked with the Arkansas Gaming Commission to ensure its platform complied with state requirements.

The company continues to focus on US expansion as more states legalize iGaming and online sports betting.

BetSaracen players will have access to fast deposit options and will be able to use payment methods like PayPal and Venmo to place bets. They can also use cash at 245 statewide retail locations.

PayNearMe Vice President and General Manager of iGaming and Sports Betting Leighton Webb commented: “We’re excited to offer our best-in-class iGaming payments platform to Arkansas operators and partner with Saracen to deliver player-preferred tender types, including PayPal, Venmo and cash.

“We look forward to being able to further expand their payment options as they grow, while helping them manage costs and maximize revenue.”
