Nevada Gaming Control Board accepts FanDuel licence surrender and DraftKings withdrawal
The Nevada Gaming Control Board accepted Flutter Entertainment’s surrender of FanDuel-related registrations, licences and approvals and approved the withdrawal of DraftKings’ active and pending applications, according to the regulator’s statement. The board said it had warned both companies that sports event contracts could jeopardise their Nevada status; DraftKings and FanDuel are pursuing prediction-market products.
The decisions remove both operators’ current Nevada licensing routes as they pursue event contracts.
