Online sports betting continues to grow in the United States as more licenses are issued to brands and more states begin to lift restrictions on the industry. Betway has gained market access through their exclusive brand licensing agreement with the Digital Gaming Corporation (DGC).

Betway’s CEO Anthony Werkman stated that the new partnership is “a very exciting time for the Betway brand as we enter the USA through our licensee partner DGC. We are delighted to have secured initial deals with six prestigious US sports teams. The deals are an extension of our existing focus to promote the Betway brand in high-profile sports shown around the world.”

While details of the agreements have not been made public it has been reported that the sponsorship deal will include arena signage of those NBA and NHL teams, while one NHL team will have the brand featured on digital assets.
