USA.- October 31st 2019 www.zonadeazar.com DraftKings was the top scorer in the bidding process to offer retail and mobile sports betting in the state of New Hampshire.
In an RFP document released by New Hampshire’s Lottery Commission, DraftKings outscored all other bidders, only losing out to Intralot in the lottery channel.
If it is ultimately awarded the role of sole mobile operator in New Hampshire, DraftKings would share 51% of mobile sports betting revenue with the state.
Roar Digital, the joint venture between GVC Holdings and MGM Resorts International, and Kambi offered 20% and 12% respectively.
