Fubo Gaming has launched its sportsbook in New Jersey ahead of the upcoming NFL season. The FuboTV Inc. subsidiary completed the soft play phase of a regulatory process set in place by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement.
Fubo Gaming President Scott Butera said: “Launching Fubo Sportsbook in New Jersey is an important early step in the development of our integrated platform, which includes a recently improved user experience and enhanced product capabilities.
“As one of the largest and most established sports betting markets in the US, New Jersey will allow Fubo to analyze and efficiently develop the most engaging product features that are focused on driving streaming customers into wagering. New Jersey is known for having deeply passionate sports fans, who, we believe, will enjoy our one-of-a-kind immersive sports wagering and viewing experience in time for football season.”
Players statewide will have access to thousands of live out-of-state collegiate and professional sporting events through Fubo Sportsbook. Fans can place wagers on the company’s website or with the sportsbook app on both iPhone and Android devices.
FuboTV Co-Founder and CEO David Gandler commented: “An integrated wagering platform, offering both live video and a sportsbook, is, we believe, the best gaming experience for consumers.
“Today’s launch marks an important milestone for Fubo Sportsbook. Our book is now available in three states, including one of the top wagering markets in the country, just 10 months after launching our first. We remain committed to interactive wagering and continue to explore potential partnership opportunities for Fubo Sportsbook.”
New York Jets Vice President, Business Development & Ventures Jeff Fernandez said he believes the partnership will benefit fans and encourage responsible gambling.
He commented: “We are thrilled to fully activate our partnership with Fubo, providing Jets fans access to the Fubo sports betting experience on the app and in the Fubo Sportsbook Lounge as we kick off the 2022 Jets season.
“With the official launch of Fubo Sportsbook in New Jersey, the Fubo Lounge and Fubo’s wagering app will provide an opportunity for our fans to responsibly gamble on sporting events from one of the best experiential settings in the NFL.”
