DraftKings has revealed it is ready to go live with mobile sports betting in Vermont when the market opens on Thursday.
Vermont Governor Phil Scott signed the US state’s bill into law in June.
DraftKings was recently one of three operators to be granted a licence for the Green Mountain State.
Matt Kalish, DraftKings’ president in North America said: “As a Boston-based company, we are thrilled for the opportunity to further expand in the New England region and provide Vermont with access to safe and legal sports betting.
“This is an exciting time of year with the NFL Playoffs about to kick off and Vermonters will now have the opportunity to engage with their favourite sports on our industry-leading DraftKings Sportsbook app.”
With the launch in Vermont, the DraftKings Sportsbook will be live in 26 US states, including five of the six New England states with Vermont, as well as the Canadian province of Ontario.
Elsewhere, Delaware recently launched mobile sports betting through a partnership with Rush Street Interactive brand BetRivers.
