With the Iowa Wild partnership and the recent launch of its new betting app, Betfred has "once again demonstrated its commitment to making Iowa a key sports betting market for the company," having previously signed a multi-year agreement with the Minor League Baseball team Iowa Cubs.

For the 2022-2023 season, Iowa Wild fans will be able to take advantage of new giveaways including suite sweepstakes, ticket giveaways, and exclusive merchandise, the company concluded in a recent press release.

As for other recent announcements, in July, a few days after applying for a sports betting license in the state of Ohio, the Cincinnati Bengals unveiled a multi-year partnership with Betfred. Legalized sports betting in the Buckeye State is set to launch on January 1, 2023, and the operator intends to launch a mobile there.
