Fubo Sportsbook, Fubo Gaming’s mobile sportsbook, has become an authorized gaming operator of NASCAR.

As partners, Fubo Sportsbook and NASCAR will work together to provide racing fans with a unique and engaging wagering experience. The launch of Fubo Sportsbook is subject to requisite regulatory approvals. This is Fubo Sportsbook’s first partnership in auto racing and marks its third major marketing deal in the professional sports industry following partnerships with the New York Jets (NFL) and Cleveland Cavaliers (NBA).

“We’re eager to partner with NASCAR, a league with a rich history and passionate followers. As an Authorized Gaming Operator, we look forward to building engaging sports betting experiences for new and existing racing fans. Fubo Sportsbook is continuing to expand its marketing footprint, propelling us toward our goal of reaching sports enthusiasts across the country,” Sam Rattner, COO of Fubo Gaming, said.

Fubo Sportsbook will be promoted as an Authorized Gaming Operator of NASCAR through a multi-channel marketing campaign bolstered by at-track assets, in-app use of NASCAR-owned track, series, and event marks and logos, in addition to the distribution of assets across NASCAR’s digital and social platforms and events.
