The company claims its debut in the Garden State signifies coverage of nearly ninety-five percent of the US online betting market.<\/p>\n<p>PointsBet users in New Jersey will experience an automatic transfer of their account details, including login credentials and personal information, to FanDuels platform.<\/p>\n<p>New Jersey holds special significance for FanDuels launch due to the legality of online gambling establishments. This marks FanDuels fourth state to introduce its online casino, following Michigan, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.<\/p>\n<p>The acquisition of PointsBet by FanDuel was finalized after an initial agreement valuing the deal at one hundred and fifty million dollars. DraftKings submitted a competing offer of one hundred and ninety-five million dollars, driving up the price, but FanDuel ultimately secured the deal in June of 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Sign up for the iGaming news newsletter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mr. Wright has stepped down from his role as Senior Vice President of Trading at FanDuel Betting and Gaming (FBG).
