Caesars Begins Mobile Sports Bets in PA

Caesars Entertainment started taking mobile sports bets in Pennsylvania on March 10. The debut comes with limited hours to meet a Gaming Control Board requirement that all new sportsbooks go through a test period.

According to CDC Gaming Reports, CaesarsOnline.com accepts wagers on basketball, football, hockey, soccer, baseball and college athletics for Desktop and Android users, with iOS ready soon. Casino games, including slots, table games and video poker, will arrive this spring.

“The online sports betting launch in Pennsylvania achieves another milestone in our strategy to offer Caesars-branded mobile-gaming products equipped with the latest technology and superior customer service across the most populous states in the U.S.,” said Christian Stuart, executive vice president of gaming and interactive for Caesars Entertainment. “Caesars mobile products are fully integrated into the Caesars Rewards loyalty program, allowing customers to earn and then redeem points.”

Caesars partnered with Scientific Games, whose OpenBet technology powers the casino and sportsbook mobile app.

Caesars now offers betting opportunities—retail and mobile—in 29 locations across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Mississippi, Indiana, Iowa, New York and Nevada.
