Marks IGT's first sports betting deployment in the United States
International Game Technology PLC’s (IGT) PlaySpot mobile solution for MGM Resorts International’s mobile sports betting app, playMGM, has completed trials in Nevada and received the necessary regulatory approvals.
The development enables MGM Resorts’ M Life Rewards members, situated within Nevada State lines, to place sports wagers via their iOS and Android mobile devices for the first time.
MGM Resorts Race & Sports Books have created a menu of betting options, available exclusively on playMGM, including live in-game wagers as well as original prop and future bets.
Players can sign up for a playMGM account and deposit and withdraw cash at any of the 10 MGM Resorts Race & Sports Books along the Las Vegas Strip.
“Our playMGM mobile sports betting app puts our Sports Books at our guests’ fingertips,” Lovell Walker, MGM Resorts International Executive Director of Interactive Gaming Development, said.
“We worked closely with IGT throughout the development process to appropriately leverage PlaySpot technology, ensuring that the app delivers an unrivaled guest experience. M life Rewards members can enjoy sports wagering opportunities in Nevada from the pool, their hotel rooms or if they are a Nevada resident, from the comfort of their home.”
Innovative features include “Trend Cloud — playMGM,” a home screen that displays a live, personalized selection of the most relevant bets available for each player and Dynamic Parlays with real-time pricing updates.
“PlaySpot brings sports betting forward into the mobile era, delivers unparalleled player experiences and helps MGM Resorts connect with players on an entertainment platform that they use every day,” commented Matteo Monteverdi, IGT Senior Vice President Global Product Marketing.
