Massachusetts’ sports betting market launches
| By Marese O'Hagan
Category 1 license holders can officially offer retail sports betting in Massachusetts from today (31 January), with mobile wagering to follow in March.
Sports betting was officially signed into law in August last year by then-governor Charlie Baker.
After the 21 November deadline to apply for licences passed, the MGC revealed that 15 operators had submitted applications. Initially, 29 operators expressed an interest in applying.
