theScore Bet Sportsbook On Track To Launch In Indiana This Summer

In just a matter of weeks, Indiana could have its ninth sports betting app.

The plan of Score Media to launch its sports betting app, theScore Bet, was always set for this summer.

The quarterly report of the company indicates that it is still on track to achieve that goal.

Anticipating Indiana, Colorado

Score Media’s founder and CEO, John Levy, says that the app will potentially launch in Colorado this summer, provided everything proceeds as planned.

Throughout this period, we have persistently forged ahead on significant initiatives, notably the development of our mobile sportsbook, theScore Bet. We are on schedule for our multi-state expansion into Colorado and Indiana later this summer, pending all necessary licenses and approvals.

Summer 2020 might be remembered as the season of sportsbooks in Indiana. Unibet started operations on July 30, and with the upcoming launch of theScore Bet, people in Indiana will have new alternatives to choose from.

theScore Bet achieving the legal milestones

The process of introducing theScore Bet to the market has been underway for some time.

The sportsbook was launched in New Jersey in September 2019.

However, due to the varying gambling laws in each state, a substantial amount of effort has been invested in preparing the product for Indiana.

The initial regulatory obstacle that theScore Bet needed to overcome was obtaining its temporary vendor license. This is a significant first step for any online sportsbook launching in Indiana.

On May 11, the Indiana Gaming Commission (IGC) granted the app its license.

The next step was GLI-33 certification.

Potential Indiana sportsbooks’ account management platforms must be approved by Gaming Laboratories International.

On July 10, GLI gave everything the thumbs up, implying that theScore Bet is almost through with its legal obligations.

Levy commended his team for successfully navigating all the required challenges.

Securing the GLI-33 certification for theScore Bet in Indiana is thrilling for us. This achievement is a testament to the relentless efforts and dedication of our engineering and product team in preparing theScore Bet for its launch in Indiana, which is a part of our plan for multi-state expansion.

The app is yet to receive its final approval from the IGC, which is expected to occur a few days prior to the actual launch.

theScore Bet aligns with NBA, MLB, and NHL.

Considering that professional sports are making a comeback, it’s the ideal moment for a sportsbook to make its debut.

PointsBet and BetMGM had the misfortune of launching just before sports were put on hold in March.

As the NBA, MLB, and NHL all resume operations, theScore Bet will find itself at the opposite end of that spectrum.

Clearly, theScore Bet is cognizant of that situation.

The company has been forging new deals in preparation for a launch during a sports-rich period of the calendar. It has now secured data partnerships with the NBA and MLB.

The future of the sportsbook will greatly depend on those partnerships.

The company utilizes data to customize each gambler’s experience with theScore Bet. Acquiring data straight from the sports leagues will aid this process.

The Colorado Division of Gaming officially approved the app on August 5. Therefore, theScore Bet intends to officially launch in Colorado this month.

The launch of theScore Bet in Indiana could receive final approval in just a few days.

The sportsbook is poised to make a significant impact this summer by absorbing the professional sports action, regardless of the circumstances. It’s well-prepared for a robust beginning in both Colorado and Indiana.
