The Group has launched a new localized version of its site, designed to enter into the incipient regulated US market for online gambling.

Gambling.com USA version features gaming industry news and online product reviews with a particular focus on the fast-changing US gambling regulations. Unlike other Gambling.com sites, sports betting does not currently feature on the US version of the site as it remains illegal in the country.

Although the site is initially focused on New Jersey, it is expected to cover regulated online gambling from all US states in the future.

Chief Operating Officer for Gambling.com Group Kevin McCrystle said “Gambling.com USA is an excellent addition to our portfolio of localized sites and will provide a functional and uniquely American experience for users looking to find top quality gambling products and bonuses in the United States”.

Charles Gillespie, Chief Executive for the Group, stated upon the site’s release: “There is great excitement in the organization about the release of Gambling.com for the American market, as this company was founded by Americans and there are more Americans on the management team than any other nationality. We have been waiting since we started in 2006 for meaningful regulation to take place in the United States and while the market is still small, we feel like now is the time to get involved. 2018 will be an exciting year with the forthcoming ruling by the Supreme Court on PASPA, which if it goes in favor of New Jersey, could result in the widespread legalization of online sports betting.”

The unveiling of the American site follows the release of other localized sites during 2017, which saw new versions of Gambling.com released for Sweden, Norway, Finland, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Ireland.
