MGM Resorts and Boyd Gaming have joined forces in what they have stated is an “unprecedented” igaming partnership.
On the same day that MGM announced its GVC Holdings deal, this arrangement sees the two gaming giants working together as they seek to “significantly increase each company’s market access and customer base throughout the United States”.
MGM Resorts and Boyd Gaming will both have the opportunity to offer online and mobile gaming platforms – including sports betting, casino gaming and poker – in jurisdictions where either Boyd Gaming or MGM Resorts operate physical casino resorts and online licenses are available. Under the agreement, each company will have a path to expand their online and mobile gaming presence across 15 states.
"We are excited to team yet again with Boyd Gaming on this unprecedented partnership, which allows us to fully engage with the almost 30 million M life Rewards members throughout the country," said MGM Resorts Chairman and CEO, Jim Murren.
"We look forward to expanding our entertainment options for guests beyond their visits to our land-based resorts."
