NeoGames S.A subsidiary Pariplay®, the leading aggregator and content provider, has delivered captivating games from Konami Gaming, Inc. to DraftKings in New Jersey for the first time.

The launch follows the recent integration of the leading provider’s content onto the Fusion® aggregation platform and sees top-tier sports betting operator DraftKings significantly strengthen its gaming offering in Garden State.

Synonymous with innovation and quality, the integration of Konami’s online portfolio of popular land-based casino titles onto the Fusion® platform allows DraftKings to serve its players with a range of popular classics and modern top titles that push the limits of originality while providing quality in every detail.

DraftKings, the sole vertically integrated sports betting operator in the United States, has already seen success in New Jersey with the launch of content from Wizard Games, Pariplay’s in-house games studio.

Shivan Patel, VP North America, Pariplay, said: “Both DraftKings and Konami are iconic names both in North America and around the world. Connecting both parties to players is a very exciting moment for us.

“Konami’s heritage in the land-based sector plays very well with online players and with such a large audience to put its game in front of through DraftKings, the potential of this launch is huge.”

DraftKings Inc. announced the launch of My Budget Builder, a new Responsible Gaming (RG) tool that players can use to set customized limits and reminders through a guided, easy-to-use experience. My Budget Builder is a tool that players can use to help manage their entertainment budgets across DraftKings platforms, including Sportsbook, Daily Fantasy Sports/Pick6, and Casino.

“My Budget Builder is a new kind of Responsible Gaming tool—intuitive, proactive, and personalized,” said Lori Kalani, Chief Responsible Gaming Officer at DraftKings. “It reflects our ongoing commitment to creating fun, enjoyable environments for our players. By enhancing how players engage with limit-setting, we are providing another resource that players can use to help them play responsibly.”

Players can access My Budget Builder via the DraftKings Responsible Gaming Center online or through the DraftKings app. The experience guides players through several categories where they can create a personalized gaming budget around deposit amount, total wagers, maximum wager size, loss limits, time spent, contest entries, and contest fees. Players will also have the option of setting either limits or reminders through My Budget Builder. After reviewing a summary of their choices, players can confirm and apply their limits or reminders for a specified duration (e.g., day, week, or month), creating a personalized budget as they see fit. Limits can be decreased at any time but cannot be increased until the selected time period expires.

The introduction of My Budget Builder further strengthens DraftKings’ Responsible Gaming commitment, which centers on accessibility, education, and innovation. It complements DraftKings’ My Stat Sheet, an industry-first feature launched in 2024 that provides players with a detailed view of their gaming activity, including time spent, deposits, withdrawals, contest participation, and net outcomes. My Stat Sheet has seen more than 20 million visits since its debut.

NH Players Wager $20M on March Madness

New Hampshire Lottery enthusiasts wagered over $20 million on the NCAA basketball tournaments, experiencing a more than 10% increase in wagering from the previous year. Florida secured the men’s championship, while UConn emerged victorious on the women’s side.

Charlie McIntyre, Executive Director of New Hampshire Lottery, said: “What an incredible month of college hoops! We love seeing our players getting in on the sports betting action! Sports betting just adds a little extra excitement to the sports viewing experience, especially during March Madness when there are dozens of games throughout the month—not to mention an expanding variety of ways to bet.”

McIntyre highlighted March Madness as a significant period for sports betting, contributing notably to funding New Hampshire’s public education. Alongside the excitement of March Madness, anticipation is building for the NHL and NBA Playoffs.

During the pre-tournament phase, local gamblers heavily backed Duke for the men’s category and strongly supported UConn for the women’s, with UConn delivering a favorable outcome. Conversely, Florida’s triumph in the men’s championship surprised many, as only 15% had initially placed their hopes on the team. However, by the championship game against Houston, two-thirds of bettors picked Florida, redeeming many bracket predictions.

Residents can place bets via the DraftKings Sportsbook app, available on iOS and Android, or online at Sportsbook.DraftKings.com. Responsible gaming is emphasized, with tools like My Stats Sheet, limit setting, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion options available on the app.
