Tipico to debut new sports betting app in New Jersey

Tipico, a global sportsbook operator, announced on Monday that it has received conditional approval from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement to bring its mobile sports betting offer to the state of New Jersey, officially debuting in the U.S. market. At launch, sports fans across the Garden State will be able to download the fast, secure and user-friendly new app to place bets across a wide variety of sports and teams.

With U.S. headquarters and operations in Hoboken, NJ, Tipico has built a new and proprietary online sportsbook offering tailor-made for the serious U.S. bettor and inspired by decades of experience as an international leader in the sports betting and mobile iGaming space. Wagering on live sports markets across the globe, with odds managed by Tipico’s in-house trading team, will be available 24/7.

"At Tipico, we knew that New Jersey would be the perfect state for us to kick-start our business in the U.S. because of its sophisticated mobile sports betting audience and mature regulatory and licensing environment," said Adrian Vella, Managing Director, US Business, Tipico. "With an incredible pool of local talent in the New York metro area, we’re thrilled to establish our headquarters in Hoboken and continue expanding our team. We’ve dedicated significant time and energy to build a long-term foundation for the U.S. market, and today marks an important milestone in that journey for Tipico."
