The wait for mobile sports betting to arrive in New York is officially over. After being named one of the first operators to receive a license for mobile sports wagering operations in the state, Caesars Entertainment made history with its online and mobile sports betting app, Caesars Sportsbook, accepting its first sports wagers in the Empire State.

Sports fans from the Bronx to Buffalo, Rochester to Ronkonkoma, and all across the state can now get closer to the sports they love and get rewarded like royalty when they place their bets.

“Today is a historic day for not only Caesars Sportsbook, but for the entire state of New York. We’re ready to treat sports fans across the state of New York like royalty through our Caesars Sportsbook app as we welcome them into the Caesars Empire, extend our already established roots and continue to build partnerships that benefit our bettors,” Chris Holdren, Co-President of Caesars Digital, said.

Caesars Sportsbook brings its legendary customer loyalty program, Caesars Rewards, to New York as the only app in the state to reward sports bettors with every bet they place. New Yorkers who wager with Caesars Sportsbook can earn Tier Credits and Reward Credits with every wager, that can be used to unlock emperor-worthy experiences within the Caesars portfolio of properties and partnerships.
