Betfred USA Sports, the US division of UK-based bookmaker Betfred, officially launched their mobile sports book in Maryland on Thursday, February 9th. This was made possible through the Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Commission (MLGCC) issuing a mobile sports wagering license to the operator earlier in the week. With this license in hand, Betfred is now authorized to accept wagers from the general public, following a thorough and successful trial period.
SCCG Management is the business development arm of Betfred USA. Playing a pivotal role in negotiations and partnerships, SCCG Management has helped propel Betfred’s success in operating in 10 states. SCCG represented Betfred in the formation of its partnership with Long Shot’s, which resulted in the establishment of a retail sports book in Maryland in November 2022.
“We are thrilled to have been granted a mobile sports wagering license by the Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Commission and to become the eighth mobile bookmaker to launch in the state,” said Stephen Crystal, CEO of SCCG Management, “Legal sports betting has been a huge success in Maryland since it began at casinos in November 2021 and expanded to statewide online wagering in November 2022. Our partnership with the Frederick-based off-track betting facility Long Shot’s allows us to offer a unique blend of both retail and online sports betting options, further enhancing the overall sports betting experience for our customers. We can’t wait to bring Betfred’s signature mobile product to Maryland.”
