IGT and FanDuel bring sports betting to Detroit

International Game Technology has announced today that its PlaySports technology is now powering retail sports betting at the FanDuel Sportsbook at MotorCity Casino in Detroit, Michigan, US.

The recently opened venue leverages IGT’s proven PlaySports platform and features 54 of the company’s self-service PlaySports kiosks. This go-live extends IGT’s proven retail partnership with FanDuel Group to eight states, after successfully co-launching FanDuel Sportsbooks in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Iowa, Indiana, Mississippi and New York.

“IGT PlaySports and FanDuel Group is a proven, winning combination for the US sports betting market and we’re excited to extend that momentum to the FanDuel Sportsbook in Michigan,” said Enrico Drago, IGT PlayDigital senior vice president.

“IGT PlaySports continues to stand apart as the trusted, go-to platform for operators that are serious about winning in the US sports betting market. There is no better example of the market’s confidence in IGT, our products and our people than PlaySports deployments with highly respected sports betting partners such as FanDuel Group.”
