Fanatics Sportsbook has applied for an online and retail sports betting license in Missouri, as confirmed by the state’s gambling regulator, the Missouri Gaming Commission.

It is now the fifth operator to apply for a Missouri sports betting license since applications went live in May after the Gaming Commission announced its sports betting market would go live on 1 December.

The state regulator can issue up to 19 retail and 14 online licenses for its upcoming market. Fanatics has not yet named a market access partner for either license type. The company currently operates in 22 states and Washington, DC.

The other operators that have applied for a license include Circa Sports, DraftKings, Underdog, and FanDuel.
