We are living through a sports betting land grab…

🗽 12 sportsbooks are legal in NY and/or NJ
🇺🇸 7 sportsbooks are legal in 10+ states
🎰 5 have retail casino footprints
🌎 4 have international footprints
📺 4 are connected to media brands
📲 3 act as “pure play” apps

Pro tip: When a sportsbook brand launches in more states (and/or big states!), it often leads to job openings ahead. Understanding the positioning of each brand can also guide you on what opportunities they will have available (e.g., more remote service roles, or more in-person retail roles).

Recent acquisitions also mark good times to look at job opportunities at a sportsbook, e.g., Fanatics’s 5/14 announcement that it is buying PointsBet’s US operations for $150M: https://lnkd.in/dcv32zaB

These top 15 sportsbooks are also just the beginning.

You can explore “Microbetting” platforms, e.g., Betr (legal in OH, MA), “Daily Fantasy Sports” brands, e.g., PrizePicks (legal in 30 states), and more.

What sports betting brand do you think has the greatest potential for growth during the year ahead? ⬇️
