Fanatics Betting and Gaming has announced a new partnership with Paysafe which aims to diversify the payments gama that the operator’s sportsbook offers to clients.
As the US online sports betting scene continues to grow and provide players with an increasing number of options to fund their favourite pastime, the new deal will allow Fanatics to strengthen its foothold in the market by leveraging Paysafe’s API-based solution and alternative payment methods.
Zak Cutler, President of Global Gaming at Paysafe, commented: “With the stature of the Fanatics brand in the sports world, we’re proud to partner with Fanatics Betting and Gaming to provide Fanatics Sportsbook and its customers with an unparalleled payments experience.
“We’re confident that our ‘all in one’ payment solution will exceed the transactional expectations of Fanatics Sportsbook’s diverse customer base and support the brand’s growth in its current and future markets.”
Fanatics’ customers in Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Ohio, and Tennessee, can now make deposits and withdrawals by using their debit cards.
What’s more, besides card and other third-party payment methods, players can also bet with cash using Paysafe’s barcode-based online cash solution.
Kathleen Boord, SVP of Strategic Operations at Fanatics, added: “We’re excited about our continued partnership with the team at Paysafe. Their single integration has allowed us to move quickly and has provided us with flexibility that ensures we’re allowing our customers to transact with their preferred payment options.
“We look forward to the ongoing collaboration with Paysafe as we continue to build on our strong foundation and create the best experience for our fans.”
