MediaTroopers Secures Temporary Sports Betting Supplier License From Arizona
Leading digital marketing agency MediaTroopers announced that the Arizona Department of Gaming has granted it a Temporary Event Wagering and Fantasy Sports Supplier license. The agency, which specializes in online gambling in US regulated markets, can now expand its operations to the Grand Canyon State, providing top-quality services to state-authorized betting operators and venues.
Arizona is one of 23 states within the US to legalize sports betting after the overturning of PASPA in 2018. With its new license, MediaTroopers offers its expertise in online casino, poker, and sports betting industries to assist and provide Arizona gambling operators with the skills and knowledge to launch online successfully and mobile operations and reach millions of customers.
Sam Segal, MediaTrooper’s CEO, stated, “MediaTroopers are beyond thrilled to have been given this prestigious license from the Arizona Department of Gaming. We are mindful that along with this great opportunity comes significant responsibility to promote entertaining, and safe sports and casino betting to our customers.”
Arizona joins many other US states to provide MediaTroopers with state licencing. The company plans to deliver a broader audience with up-to-date news on sporting events, game predictions, great sportsbook and online casino offers, and updates for sports betting, casino, and poker regulated US markets.
Segal continued, “We pride ourselves in the ability to efficiently grow and reach new operators, adjusting our content from state to state, along with our extensive digital marketing capabilities. We look forward to operating in Arizona and providing top-class service to betting operators.”
“I want to thank the Arizona Department of Gaming for entrusting us with promoting responsible, legal and secure gambling in your beautiful state,” Segal added.
As a pioneering digital marketing agency, MediaTroopers is a leading publisher in the sports betting, casino, and poker regulated US markets, specializing in generating leads and acquiring paying customers for online casinos and sportsbook operators.
With the addition of Arizona, MediaTroopers is now licensed and operates in 13 US states, including New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Indiana, Tennessee, Illinois, Michigan, Washington DC, West Virginia, Virginia, Iowa, and Wymong.
With a massive impact of innovation, MediaTroopers boasts a significant portfolio of over 60 customers, including leading US online casinos and sportsbook operators including DraftKings, FanDuel, MGM, Golden Nugget Casino, and Bet Rivers.

Governor Hobbs signs SB 1671; new budget sets $4M spend authority plus $500K a year from event wagering funds.
The Arizona Department of Gaming has secured a six-year continuation after Governor Hobbs signed Senate Bill 1671, following the 2026 legislative session that adjourned June 12, 2026. The continuation also covers the Arizona State Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts Commission and the Arizona Racing Commission.
The Department said SB 1671 affirms its authority to regulate tribal gaming, event wagering and fantasy sports, horse racing and simulcast wagering, and boxing and mixed martial arts.
In parallel, the Department said Senate Bill 1847 and the state’s Fiscal Year 2027 budget expand expenditure authority for its Division of Problem Gambling. The budget authorizes $4,000,000 in total spending for the Division, which the agency said is a 20% increase from FY26.
The Department also said the legislature granted an annual $500,000 expenditure authority to use Event Wagering funds to support problem gambling, and that the Division will have grant oversight authority for the first time.
“Arizona first established the Department of Gaming in 1995 – and more than thirty years later, we remain excited about world-class regulation benefiting the entire state,” said Jackie Johnson, Department Director. “I’m grateful to Governor Hobbs and leaders in the state legislature, particularly continuation bill sponsor State Senator Shawnna Bolick, who thoroughly reviewed our agency with a deep commitment to public service, and I am pleased that the Department secured its continuation, which will allow us to strengthen our focus points in robust consumer protection and integrity.”
“The new state budget will strengthen longstanding investments in problem gambling assistance made possible through partnerships with Arizona’s Tribal Nations and the Arizona Lottery,” said Elise Mikkelsen. “We continue to see strong demand from individuals and families seeking information, resources, and treatment for gambling-related harm. This increased funding will help us expand the continuum of care and ensure more Arizonans have access to effective, inclusive, and timely support.”
