PENN Entertainment Signs Agreement with Wynn Interactive Holdings
Prague Gaming & TECH Summit 2025 (25-26 March)

 

PENN Entertainment has announced that it has reached an agreement with Wynn Interactive Holdings to acquire its New York mobile sports wagering licenses, providing PENN with market access to the jurisdiction. Pending regulatory approvals, PENN will launch its online sports wagering product, ESPN BET, in New York in 2024.

As part of the transaction, PENN is acquiring WSI US LLC, from Wynn Interactive Holdings for $25 million. WSI US LLC is the entity that holds the mobile sports wagering licenses that were previously issued by the New York State Gaming Commission in 2021. Wynn Interactive is a subsidiary of Wynn Resorts Limited.

“This is an important development that will bring ESPN BET to the largest regulated online sports wagering market in North America. Together with ESPN, we’re building a brand that is synonymous with sports betting, and operating in the New York market is key as we grow ESPN BET across the US,” Jay Snowden, CEO and President of PENN Entertainment, said.
