This approval allows the Company to expand into the fastest growing segment of the Smartphone industry. Leroy's, the bookmaking subsidiary of Las Vegas based American Wagering, was the first licensed gaming company to enter the projected US$48 billion mobile wagering sector in the United States with its approval for mobile sports betting within the state of Nevada last September.
"The addition of the Android platform to our mobile wagering product is a significant step forward in our strategic plan to become the clear leader in the mobile gaming sector," stated Bob Kocienski, COO of American Wagering.
The Leroy's App has operated mobile betting successfully for the last five months in Nevada. The public and the gaming industry heralded the 32 year-old company as groundbreaking innovators in the mobile technology arena. The application is very intuitive and easy to use. Customers first must open a sports betting account with Leroy's and then can begin betting from anywhere within the borders of Nevada.
Leroy's App allows for a full functioning sportsbook and it offers a full menu of sporting events as well as in-game betting, propositions, and contests that keep the customer engaged and entertained.
"The new field trial authorized by the Nevada regulators for the Android platform gives the company two of the four major platforms to distribute the Leroy's App and we are rapidly striving to be on the iPhone, Windows 7, and tablets such as BlackBerry's Playbook and Apple's iPad as part of our new development path. This is the start of a new era in sports betting," said Kocienski.
