The Game On payment cards allow consumers to add funds to their accounts with their favorite sports betting operators.
Steve Dekker, Managing Director, Americas for the Blackhawk Network, said, “As sports betting was legalized and began its adoption in states across the country, BHN saw a unique opportunity to create the Game On product, representing an exciting new funding option for any sports fan.
"The Game On card can be used as a tool to spend wisely, because players can use the card to hold their desired amount of funds. We are thrilled to continue our expansion to Maryland and Kansas and provide our digital offerings to residents in Wyoming as well.”
