Golden Nugget Online Gaming announced today that it has won one of the few online sports gaming licenses to be awarded in Virginia and has been granted a temporary permit to commence online sports wagering in the state. The company now has market access to 10 states, legislation and regulatory approvals permitting.
Thomas Winter, President of GNOG stated, “We thank the Virginia Lottery for the opportunity to expand our online business into the Commonwealth of Virginia. Together with our partner, Virginia Sports Technology Group, we will not only provide Virginians with a mobile sportsbook, we will be proudly sharing our revenues with Virginia’s Historically Black Colleges & Universities.”
Winter added, “We will be working hand in hand with the regulators over the next couple of months to complete all of the required and standard platform testing so that we will be in a position to start taking bets this summer.”
