The Connecticut Lottery Corporation issued a comprehensive Request For Proposals on Monday, triggering a bidding process for the lottery’s sports betting partner that may become intensely competitive in the coming months.
The issuance of the 38-page Request For Proposals comes roughly two weeks after Rush Street Interactive announced plans to wind down its online and in-person sports betting partnership with the Connecticut Lottery. At a minimum, the successful bidder will provide a wagering platform for the lottery’s online and retail sports wagering channels, the lottery wrote in the document. In addition, the winning bidder will also be required to provide a new Daily Fantasy Sports solution in conjunction with its submission.
