playMGM enables MGM Resorts' M life Rewards members to place sports wagers on their mobile devices anywhere, anytime within Nevada. MGM Resorts Race & Sports Books have created a menu of betting options, available exclusively on playMGM, including live in-game wagers as well as original prop and future bets. Players can sign up for a playMGM account and deposit and withdraw cash at any of the 10 MGM Resorts Race & Sports Books along the Las Vegas Strip.
The playMGM app, designed for iPhone and Android, is MGM Resorts' first mobile sports betting solution and IGT's first sports betting deployment in the United States. It features functionality never before seen in legal mobile sports betting in the US, such as a live "trend cloud" highlighting the most active bets of the moment.
"Our playMGM mobile sports betting app puts our Sports
Books at our guests' fingertips," said Lovell Walker, MGM Resorts
International Executive Director of Interactive Gaming Development.
"We worked closely with IGT throughout the development process to
appropriately leverage PlaySpot technology, ensuring that the app delivers an
unrivaled guest experience. M life Rewards members can enjoy sports wagering
opportunities in Nevada from the pool, their hotel rooms or if they are a
Nevada resident, from the comfort of their home," Walker added.
"Our successful Nevada deployment of PlaySpot with MGM
Resorts International exemplifies why the solution won 'Casino Product of the
Year' at the Global Gaming Awards," said Matteo Monteverdi, IGT Senior
Vice President Global Product Marketing, Interactive.
"PlaySpot brings sports betting forward into the mobile era, delivers
unparalleled player experiences and helps MGM Resorts connect with players on
an entertainment platform that they use every day," Monteverdi added.
