Rivers Casino Des Plaines Partners With Rush Street Interactive To Launch Betrivers.com, Making History As The First Online And Mobile Sportsbook In Illinois
Just in time for this summer’s return to live sports action, Rivers Casino Des Plaines and Rush Street Interactive (RSI) are launching the award-winning online sportsbook BetRivers.com. Players can sign up from home.
BetRivers.com will offer players the chance to be among the first sports fans to ever place legal online bets in the state of Illinois. Premier League Soccer begins this week, the NBA, WNBA and NHL are scheduled to resume play next month. Bundesliga soccer, UFC, motorsports and professional golf recently resumed televised events with media reports of major league baseball returning soon. BetRivers.com sites will live stream hundreds of sporting events so that players can bet while they watch the action.
“We are excited to make history in bringing the first online sportsbook to sports fans in our home state just in time as American sports are coming back into action,” said Richard Schwartz, president of Rush Street Interactive.
Because of the COVID-19 crisis, Governor Pritzker’s June 4 executive order temporarily allows players to sign-up on-line or via mobile app and begin placing bets on BetRivers.com from the safety of their homes without first having to visit a casino as the Illinois sports betting statute otherwise provides.
“While entertainment options are limited as we seek to minimize the spread of the virus, we are focused on BetRivers.com providing sportsbook players with a high-quality on-line product with exciting sports betting options,” Schwartz said. “We will have great customer service with fast payouts and an overall friendly approach that treats every player with honesty and care.”
Players can register online and instantly place bets from anywhere in the state via desktop, on Android, or Apple mobile devices by simply visiting BetRivers.com. Based on the type of device they are using, players will be guided by prompts through the quickest and simplest way to get in on the action. Android users must go to the same BetRivers.com website to download the new Illinois app to wager on their mobile devices. Apple users can register and bet using the browsers on their mobile devices. The BetRivers iOS app for Illinois is expected to launch soon. Players will receive a match bonus up to $250 on their first deposit. Participants must be physically located within state borders and be at least 21 years old to wager.

Titanplay Enters the Mobile Market with Delasport’s Turnkey Solution
Rising iGaming brand Titanplay is entering the mobile market powered by Delasport’s turnkey solution. The solution includes the possibility of quickly launching iOS and Android apps, in this case – for the Ontario player base.
Mobile users will get the full sportsbook and casino experience of Delasport’s product, and even more: features like the proprietary Booster Panel for Casino games and ‘Combo of the Day’ for sports are also available for them.
Titanplay’s app is already available for iOS, and it will soon arrive on Google’s Play Store for Android devices.
The Ontario-focused brand is taking full advantage of what Delasport has to offer, thus providing the best player betting experience possible. Their platform has been live for a few months now and it has been thriving the whole time.
Aside from the mobile-only cutting-edge features, gamblers enjoy Player Engagement missions and tournaments, unmatched personalization capabilities with My Sportsbook, My Casino, My Combo, and My Event Builder, and much more.
“Having a mobile-first approach when developing products is a must in today’s iGaming industry”, Delasport’s CEO Oren Cohen Shwartz comments. “Data shows that mobile users are now more than 70% of the whole player base, so we make sure to be prepared to bring our partners to this thriving market at any point. This is the case with Titanplay who’ve had an incredibly successful launch in Ontario last year and are now ready to win even more players.”
In addition to a comprehensive sportsbook and casino experience, the Delasport mobile app includes innovative customization, and gamification features to boost user engagement and differentiate the company from its competitors. Cross-product Tournaments, Missions, Badges, Spin & Win, and other gamification elements are also available to Titanplay’s players.
As soon as the app is downloaded and installed on a device, it provides convenient and quick access. Titanplay’s team may communicate with their players in real-time using the built-in push notifications feature on their devices. The software also addresses current security demands by providing biometric login and facial recognition on supported devices.
