FanDuel mobile and retail sports betting live in Kansas

Kansas bettors can now place wagers on the online FanDuel Sportsbook, and can download its official app.

Alongside mobile sports betting, FanDuel has also opened a temporary retail sportsbook with Boyd Gaming at the Kansas Star Casino, with the grand opening of the permanent venue at the casino scheduled for 8 September.

The ceremony will see NFL wide receiver Jordy Nelson place the ceremonial first bet.

The retail sportsbook at the Kansas Star will feature four betting windows, 28 HD televisions and 20 self-service betting kiosks.

Kansas has become the latest US state FanDuel’s mobile betting app is live in, after most recently launching in Wyoming and Louisiana in March and January respectively.

Currently, FanDuel has 51% total market share in the US, according to parent company Flutter’s recently released Q2 results.

Last month, FanDuel announced a new TV network and streaming platform, which will aim to provide 24/7 sports betting content.
