GAN Announces Successful Launch of B2B Sports Betting Solution at WynnBet Sportsbook at Encore Boston Harbor
GAN Limited has launched their B2B sports betting technology and trading solution, GAN Sports at WynnBET Sports Book at Encore Boston Harbor.
Encore Boston Harbor’s launch of the highly anticipated WynnBET Sportsbook at Encore Boston Harbor in Massachusetts took place on Tuesday, January 31, 2023, and featured celebrity guest appearances by several New England sports legends and media personalities. Guests of the WynnBet Sportsbook at Encore Boston Harbor have the ability to place wagers at one of ten, over-the-counter wagering windows located in the state-of-the art, 130+ seat sportsbook lounge. The casino also features one hundred and twenty self-service betting kiosks, conveniently located throughout the property, including an “Express” sportsbook located on the first floor of the free self-parking garage, which provides guests quick access to 20 betting kiosks.
The Encore Boston Harbor WynnBET sportsbook supported by GAN Sports technology is the largest known installation of self-service betting kiosks in the US.
This announcement continues to demonstrate the extensive capabilities of GAN Sports’ in-house online and retail sports betting technology. GAN Sports is a modern sportsbook technology platform built upon the award-winning Coolbet technology (acquired by GAN in January 2021) that has been adapted for the U.S. B2B market.
Rob Lekites, VP of North American Sports for GAN, said: “We are encouraged by a highly successful launch of our solution to help power a truly marquee partner like WynnBet, and we are excited to continue to showcase perhaps the most innovative sports experience available anywhere in the US today. Given the size of the overall project, and its importance to both of our organizations, the teams from GAN, WynnBet and Encore Boston Harbor have worked extremely hard over the past few months to deliver the premier sportsbook in Massachusetts. We’re extremely proud of the efforts from the GAN team, and we are thankful for the overwhelming support from the Encore Boston Harbor team.”
