Specializing in online sports betting and casino marketing, the agency MediaTroopers is now licensed to operate in Maryland. The company announced this week that it was granted its license by the Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Agency.
The group plans to deliver its expertise in sports betting and casino services to bettors within the state. As a publisher within the sports betting, casino, poker and iGaming US regulated markets, MediaTroopers is licensed in ten US states.
In total, the agency operates in 19 states where online gambling is legal, and in Washington DC. Recently, the company launched its operations in Ontario, Canada.
MediaTroopers services are already in operation in states near Maryland. These states include Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Virginia. Now, the company plans to bring up-to-date news on sports betting and iGaming to the Old Line State.
The CEO of MediaTroopers, Sam Segal, stated: "We are beyond thrilled to have received a Casinos/Sports Wagering Vendor License with the Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Agency. While we already hold valid licensing and regulation in over a dozen US states, adding Maryland to our substantial portfolio enables us to continue providing our pioneering services to the Mid-Atlantic region of the US."
In 2021, the company was active and operating in seven states. By June of 2022, the group has increased the number of active states to 16.
The licensing in Maryland comes just before the legalization of online sports betting in the state. Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Agency Director John Martin revealed that online sports betting will be available in Maryland in the fall of 2022.
MediaTroopers works with notable US gambling operators and sportsbooks including DraftKings, FanDuel and PointsBet.
Segal also remarked on the growth Maryland could see, stating: "With the potential for up to 60 mobile betting operators to gain a license in Maryland, the state has the possibility to become one of the US’ most significant online betting markets."
Segal continued: "We highly anticipate bringing Maryland bettors even more fun and excitement with legal, safe and responsible sports betting."
