MediaTroopers to Launch in Maryland
MediaTroopers, a prominent US digital marketing agency that specializes in online gambling, announced this week it has launched activities in Maryland. As MD bettors can now wager legally on their favourite sports and markets, this newly regulated state adds to MediaTroopers’ portfolio of 22 US states in which the company operates to promote legal, safe, and responsible gambling products. Ultimately, it will enable MediaTroopers to help its existing and new partners to reach millions of customers in Maryland.
Just in time for Thanksgiving, Maryland sports betting is legal and live at long last. With the market launching during the 2022 Qatar FIFA World Cup and while this year’s NFL season is in full swing, it’s an incredibly exciting time for Maryland bettors. Similarly, substantial player engagement is expected after successful pre-launch marketing campaigns and plenty of fan involvement stirred up by leading gambling operators.
Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan announced that online and mobile sports betting would be available in the state from November 23, 2022. Some of the US’ biggest sports betting and iGaming brands are now live in Maryland, with many more expected to launch or waiting for the regulatory process to begin.
Several operators have already launched in Maryland, including long-standing customers of MediaTroopers like BetMGM, BetRivers, Caesars, DraftKings, FanDuel, and PointsBet.
Shmulik Segal, the Co-Founder and CEO of MediaTroopers, said, “MediaTroopers is excited to launch in Maryland alongside the state’s legal and regulated gambling market. And what better time to go live, with the World Cup kicking off and the 2022 NFL season in full action.”
“However, we are mindful that along with this incredible opportunity comes an essential responsibility to promote fun yet safe sports betting to our customers.” Segal continued.
Segal concluded, “Here at MediaTroopers, we pride ourselves in our ability to effectively expand and reach new operators, adapting our services from state to state, along with our extensive digital marketing facilities. Ultimately, we look forward to working in Maryland and delivering top-quality service to gambling operators.”
As an industry-leading digital marketing agency, MediaTroopers has grown to become a top publisher in the sports betting and iGaming-regulated US markets. Decades of combined digital-marketing strategy experience and an extensive network of publishers allow the company to provide its clients with bespoke marketing solutions to best fit their needs.
With the addition of Maryland, MediaTroopers Inc is now licensed or operational in 22 US states, including prominent markets like New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Michigan, West Virginia, and Washington DC. With a huge focus on innovation, MediaTroopers has a substantial portfolio of over 60 clients, including leading US sportsbook operators like DraftKings, FanDuel, MGM, and more.

At the event, the company will highlight how its product suite addresses evolving technical and partnership demands in Canada’s regulated iGaming market.

Digicode’s Diger Suite is built to support this shift, offering a modular architecture that enables faster adaptation to regulatory changes, improved system reliability, and more efficient operations.
Aligned with the summit’s 2026 theme, “Partnerships, Performance, and Market Reality,” Digicode will demonstrate how its technology supports sustainable growth.

During the summit, Digicode’s team will engage with industry stakeholders on topics including AI adoption in product development, modernization of legacy systems, and the transition away from traditional SaaS and revenue-share models toward full platform ownership.
The company aims to help operators regain control of their technology stack, reduce dependency on third-party vendors, and build scalable, compliant solutions tailored to their business needs.

Internet Vikings Expands Canadian Footprint into Alberta
Internet Vikings, a licensed hosting provider for the North American iGaming and online sports betting industry, has announced that its hosting solutions are ready to launch in Alberta, Canada. Internet Vikings’ infrastructure and operational processes already align with the province’s expected requirements, meaning the company can help operators enter the Alberta market faster and with greater confidence.
The expansion comes following the release of updated hosting, infrastructure, and security requirements by the AGLC. As Alberta prepares to open its market, operators and suppliers are facing strict requirements around cybersecurity and disaster recovery.
Internet Vikings’ experience supporting regulated operators across North America positions the company to help businesses comply with these operational and regulatory requirements efficiently from day one.
Requirements include adherence to internationally recognized security standards such as SOC 2 and ISO 27001. In addition, operators are expected to maintain disaster recovery environments, encrypted immutable backups, and perform routine recovery testing to ensure business continuity.
“We are ready to provide the infrastructure and local expertise operators need to launch and scale successfully. We are already working with operators preparing for launch and understand the urgency involved in getting compliant infrastructure deployed quickly,” said Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings.
Internet Vikings first established operations in Ontario in 2022 and is now expanding its Canadian footprint into Alberta with hosting solutions, including VMware cloud hosting, bare metal servers, bare metal GPU servers, disaster recovery, and backup solutions.
