Rush Street Interactive Teams up with Penn National to Enter Three New States

To expand its business scope to even more states across America, one of the highly regarded iGaming industry operators, Rush Street Interactive (RSI), has partnered with the renowned Penn National Gaming brand!

Thanks to this strategic collaboration, RSI has been able to leave its footprint at three more key markets in Ohio, Maryland, and Missouri.

Sports Betting Platform Included in the Deal

According to the agreement, this casino will have the opportunity to offer its famous BetRivers.com real-money online casino in these markets as well as its sports betting platform.

The brands have also announced that this partnership with Penn National will potentially enable this well-known operator to offer its services in Texas. However, all this depends on other circumstances related to state law and regulatory approvals.

Rush has so far expanded its presence to as many as 8 states in which it operates including Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.

Three Key Markets

This agreement gives the operator the opportunity to launch its services in three key markets and thanks to this, the company can reach up to 35% of the population in the US.

Also, RSI said that the company is one of the leaders in three very popular markets that have recently legalized sports betting including Illinois, Pennsylvania, and New York.

Richard Schwartz, President of RSI, gave his comment regarding the extension:“We are pleased to gain potential market access to three new states as we continue the execution of our strategy to gain access and bring our best-in-class online gaming offerings to key markets across the United States.

“The addition of Ohio, Maryland, and Missouri to our market access portfolio, specifically, builds on RSI’s success in neighboring states and will create enhanced marketing efficiencies for our BetRivers.com brand,” he said. “We expect to continue entering into additional market access arrangements in the future, as other opportunities arise.”
