At the annual American Gambling Awards, BetMGM has been named "Online Casino of the Year." The nominees for this award represent the top companies, organizations, and leaders in the regulated U.S. iGaming market. Winners are selected through a voting process by a panel of experts, each with extensive experience in the U.S. gambling industry.
This year's champion has solidified its position as a leading iGaming operator in the U.S. by employing a multi-brand strategy that has helped maintain a strong market share of 27%. BetMGM's platform offers over 1,500 games and boasts one of the largest networks of exclusive jackpots in the country.
BetMGM is continuously working to enhance its platform's functionality and promote its brand. For instance, the operator has implemented a new bonus optimization system and expanded its player account management services. Additionally, BetMGM is strengthening partnerships with professional sports teams by offering NHL-themed casino games. The operator has also launched Wheel of Fortune, the first online casino under the BetMGM brand in North America.
Charles Gillespie, CEO of the American Gambling Awards, commented on the results: "BetMGM continues to reinforce its reputation as a leader in the U.S. iGaming industry, thanks to its extensive game portfolio, multi-channel focus, and top-notch execution of all key digital technologies. It is a pleasure to present BetMGM Casino with the 'Golden Eagle' trophy and the 'Online Casino of the Year' award for the second consecutive year," Gillespie stated.
As part of the American Gambling Awards, winners in various categories receive the "Golden Eagle" trophy, designed by Society Awards, the same company behind the iconic Oscar, Golden Globe, and Emmy statuettes.
Matt Prevo, BetMGM's Chief Revenue Officer, remarked, "These prestigious awards are a testament to the ongoing hard work and dedication of the BetMGM team. It is a great honor for us to win the American Gambling Awards' 'Online Casino of the Year' for the second year in a row. This is a fantastic reflection of the efforts of BetMGM and our partners, who strive every day to provide award-winning online casino experiences to our customers."
Notably, the BEGE Expo 2023 will gather representatives from the gambling industry in Sofia this November.
