PointsBet Online and Mobile Sports Betting Now Live in Maryland

PointsBet Holdings Limited, the leader in live betting, announced the company has officially unveiled its market-leading mobile app and digital sports betting product in the state of Maryland.

“Just a few short months after unveiling The PointsBet Retail Sportsbook at The Riverboat on the Potomac, we’re thrilled to now be able to add our market-leading online sports betting product to the mix. As one of the few sportsbooks to be on the starting line in Maryland, PointsBet will be delivering sports fans in the state a new way to take part in the action – whether that’s for the NFL, NBA, or NHL. And we’re particularly looking forward to launch just as the 2022 World Cup is starting and showing Maryland bettors why we’re known as the home of live betting through our new suite of Soccer Lightning Bet markets,” PointsBet USA CEO Johnny Aitken said.

The launch of the PointsBet comes just in time for the 2022 World Cup, which is the first since sports betting has become a mainstream fixture in the US. PointsBet users will have the opportunity to tap into new unveiled Soccer Lightning Bets, which include Free Kick Awarded, Goal Scored, Goal Kick Awarded, Shots On Target, and much more. Users will also have the ability to build a Same Game Parlay pre-match or live to maximize their live betting experience.

“Along with The Riverboat team, which is the only minority-owned facility in the state, we’re proud to bring the renowned PointsBet mobile product to the state of Maryland. The Maryland sports betting industry is poised to be one of the most active in the nation, and to be able to take part in that momentum while also working closely with The Riverboat to enhance its equity and inclusion in the space is monumental,” Paul Hannon, SVP of Corporate Development at PointsBet, said.
