Betr was awarded a Maryland online sports betting license Wednesday by the Maryland Sports Wagering Application Review Commission, moving the betting app close to an official launch in Maryland. Betr still needs to go through a controlled demonstration with the Maryland Lottery before officially going live in the state.

The sports betting app, which was founded by Jake Paul and Joey Levy, is currently operational in Ohio and Virginia. Betr was operational in Massachusetts but left the market due to economic reasons. Betr’s projected Maryland launch date is yet to be announced.

Betr will enter Maryland’s market as Betfred gets set to exit.
