In the United States and the billionaire owner of the Vegas Golden Knights franchise of the National Hockey League (NHL) has reportedly agreed a deal that is to see online payment systems provider Paysafe Group Holdings Limited once again become a public concern.

The Texas-born businessman purportedly explained that the agreement is expected to close by the end of June and will subsequently involve the enlarged entity being listed with the New York Stock Exchange under the continuing leadership of its Chief Executive Officer, Philip McHugh.

Rapid return:

Seeking supremacy:

Foley reportedly told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that he wants the rechristened Paysafe Limited to ‘dominate’ the online gaming market in the United States and be prepared to quickly move into any jurisdiction that is exploiting the 2018 revocation of the previous Professional and Amateur Sports Protections Act (PASPA) prohibition to legalize iGaming and sportsbetting.

The 75-year-old businessman reportedly pronounced…

“Whether it’s a lottery or slot machines or sportsbetting [opening in a state], it’s our job to be there first and to make sure we dominate. We’re focusing on gaming, particularly sportsbetting, in the United States as it becomes legal and we’ve got a wide landscape we can attack. It’s pretty exciting.”

Desired discussions:

Foley reportedly furthermore revealed that he is to become Chairman for the new-look Paysafe Limited and will immediately begin having conversations with multiple local casino operators regarding the possibility of expanding and strengthening their mutual ties. He purportedly moreover detailed that this could eventually see the entity begin supplying punters with the ability to purchase almost anything within a land-based casino electronically from room service and meals to in-play sports wagers and daily fantasy contest picks.
