Rhode Island Lottery weighs ending IGT’s online sports betting exclusivity
The Rhode Island Lottery is examining whether to add online sports betting apps, after receiving responses from eight operators to a request for information by 22 August. FanDuel, DraftKings and BetMGM were among those interested, but the state has not decided whether to change the system; IGT’s exclusive contract runs until November 2026.
A change could open Rhode Island’s online sports betting market to operators beyond IGT.
