BetMGM Sportsbook Opens at The Banks
BetMGM, a leading sports betting and iGaming operator announced the new BetMGM Sportsbook at The Banks is officially open in downtown Cincinnati.
Relocating from its temporary Great American Ball Park location, the permanent BetMGM Sportsbook at The Banks is a state-of-the-art facility at the corner of Second Street and Joe Nuxhall Way in the area formerly occupied by Galla Park. The BetMGM Sportsbook features a 350-square-foot video wall in addition to 42 TVs becoming Cincinnati’s go-to destination to catch all the action in an electric gameday atmosphere.
“When we were putting together our plans for Ohio prior to our January launch, building the premier sports and entertainment venue at The Banks was an integral part of delivering the BetMGM experience in The Buckeye State. We are thrilled to see this vision become a reality marking our next big next step in growing our relationship with the city of Cincinnati and the Reds,” Matt Prevost, Chief Revenue Officer at BetMGM, said.
Open to patrons 21 and older, the sportsbook includes three in-person wagering windows, 14 self-service wagering kiosks, more than 200 seats, and an exclusive VIP lounge. The VIP Lounge at the BetMGM Sportsbook is designed to cater to sports enthusiasts seeking an unparalleled gaming and entertainment experience. Showcasing a private bar, state-of-the-art screens, and luxurious seating, the VIP section represents the fusion of high-end sports entertainment and culinary excellence.
BetMGM became the Official Sports Betting Partner of the Cincinnati Reds as part of a multi-year agreement announced last October in advance of Ohio’s launch of legalized sports betting on January 1, 2023.
“Moving the BetMGM Sportsbook to The Banks places this best-in-class operator into the heart of our city’s sports and entertainment district. The popularity of the BetMGM brand will help draw patrons to The Banks and add to the vibrancy of our downtown,” Doug Healy, CFO of Cincinnati Reds, said.
The opening of the BetMGM Sportsbook at The Banks marks Phase 1 of the space, with a full-service restaurant from Nation Kitchen & Bar set to debut later this year.
“We are thrilled about the addition of the BetMGM Sportsbook at The Banks. With the Bengals season starting and the Reds making a push to playoffs, The Banks continues to be the #1 entertainment destination in Cincinnati,” Tracy Schwegmann, Marketing Director/Property Manager for The Banks, said.

The 1X2 portfolio of games is available at BetMGM in Michigan initially, following closely by Ontario, with further markets available across North America (pending regulatory approval) in the coming year.
Kevin Reid, Chief Executive Officer at 1X2 Network, said: “We have ambitious plans for the North American market and what better way to build further momentum here than by partnering with one of the most prestigious operators, BetMGM.

“This is a significant deal for 1X2 Network and really does mark our arrival as a leading content provider in the fast-growing market.”
Oliver Bartlett, Vice President of Gaming Product & Content, BetMGM. “The partnership with 1X2 Network is a testament to our commitment to offer the broadest and best content to our players.

Boldplay™ to make U.S. debut after signing exclusive partnership deal with BetMGM
Boldplay, the casino software supplier, has announced its much-anticipated U.S. debut after teaming up with BetMGM, a leading iGaming and sports betting operator, and providing its first set of games Cyborg City, Toro Bravo, and Gold Metal Ox.
The new partnership will see Boldplay’s extensive collection of innovative video slots, table games, virtual scratch and keno titles become available to customers in the U.S. market for the very first time, enabling countless players to experience the brand’s signature range of bonus features and jackpots.
Notable highlights to come out of the studio include Boldplay Spins – a unique twist on Free Spins that sees the reels spin both vertically and horizontally to create more winning pay lines – and the brand’s flagship jackpot, the Boldplay Superpot, which gives players of all bankroll levels a chance to win big.
The exclusive nature of the deal will also see BetMGM gain a significant market advantage in the U.S., where it will initially be the only platform able to offer Boldplay games. Given these titles have already garnered plenty of critical acclaim from players and operators across Europe, their presence at BetMGM will be a huge draw and will help the platform further enhance its standing in the industry.
This latest collaboration represents another significant step in Boldplay’s evolution from up-and-coming studio to one of the industry’s most sought-after software providers and will allow the brand to extend its reach into new regulated markets – a move CEO, Valli Fragoso, is clearly optimistic about.
“Boldplay is thrilled to announce that we’re teaming up with BetMGM in an exclusive partnership that will see our games be made available in the U.S. for the very first time,” she said. “By joining forces with such a prestigious operator, we’ll be able to raise the profile of our brand in the country as we continue to expand and we’re looking forward to what should be a hugely successful collaboration.”
