Grand Central to open Elys-powered sportsbook in DC on October 4
| By Robert Fletcher
Grand Central has announced it will launch the new Elys Game Technology-powered retail sportsbook at its Grand Central Restaurant & Bar in Washington DC on October 4.
The sportsbook will be the first offering at a bar that is not operated by the state lottery’s Gambet brand.
The sportsbook will enable visitors to place real-money sports bets from anywhere inside the restaurant premises, with an on-site app also due to launch next year.
Grand Central and Elys were last month issued a Class B operator license by the District of Columbia’s Office of Lottery and Gaming (OLG) for the new venture.
This arrangement will also see US Bookmaking advise on risk management and bookmaking services at the sportsbook.
