The Sports Wagering Committee of the Tennessee Education Lottery Corporation has approved Nuvei’s registration as a vendor. The approval authorises Nuvei to provide its innovative payment technology to all licensed and regulated sports betting operators across the state.

Tennessee legalised sports betting in 2019 and it launched on November 1, 2020. Sports wagering began after the state started licensing sportsbooks who applied for licensure. Wagering on sports is legal anywhere within Tennessee’s borders for customers over the age of 21.

Nuvei has previously received state approval for sports betting in Colorado, Indiana and West Virginia.
