Massachusetts Gaming Commission reopens sports betting licence applications

Licences & markets

The Massachusetts Gaming Commission voted unanimously to reopen sports betting licence applications after staff said bet365 had expressed interest in an untethered online licence. Four untethered online licences and several tethered licences remain available; the commission has not yet set the application window dates.

The decision could create a route for bet365 to apply for a Massachusetts online sports betting licence.
