Caesars Entertainment Partners with Raynham Park to Open Caesars Sportsbook Retail Location in Massachusetts

Published

Sports betting is on the way for sports fans in Massachusetts and Caesars Entertainment, Inc. announced plans to offer in-person sports betting through a partnership with Raynham Park, just south of Boston, pending approval by the Massachusetts Gaming Commission. The partnership marks Caesars’ first in-person foray into the Bay State and includes the eventual opening of a 30,000-square-foot Caesars Sportsbook retail location, which will become one of the largest free-standing race and sports wagering facilities in the US.

“Raynham Park is in an excellent location in southeast Massachusetts and will be one of just a few retail sports betting locations in the Commonwealth. It’s great to partner with the Carney family, which has a long history in the community and an exciting vision for a tremendous sports entertainment and pari-mutuel simulcasting facility. We look forward to showcasing the Caesars commitment to world-class experiences through this partnership,” Eric Hession, President of Caesars Digital, said.

Caesars Sportsbook at Raynham Park plans to open as a temporary sportsbook inside the current simulcasting facility before later moving nearby into one of the biggest standalone sports betting and pari-mutuel simulcasting establishments in the US, following regulatory approvals. The state-of-the-art sportsbook will feature an elevated atmosphere fit for a Caesar as part of a new building expected to be complete by the middle of this year.

“Caesars Sportsbook is the strongest retail sports gaming brand in the industry and we are extremely proud to announce our partnership. Our sportsbook will be one of the largest sports gaming destinations not only in Massachusetts, but in the United States. With Caesars’ legendary commitment to quality and integrity, Raynham Park will be a world-class venue that will set a new standard for gaming in Massachusetts,” said Raynham Park owner Chris Carney.

In addition to in-person sports wagering and horse racing simulcast wagering at Raynham Park, Caesars Sportsbook plans to launch on desktop and be available for download on iOS and Android devices. Caesars Sportsbook will be available to eligible Massachusetts sports fans when mobile sports betting goes live later this year since Caesars Sportsbook was found to have met the eligibility requirements for a temporary mobile sports betting license by the Massachusetts Gaming Commission. Once mobile sports wagering launches in Massachusetts, Caesars Sportsbook at Raynham Park will also offer Caesars Sportsbook mobile customers the added convenience of accepting Caesars Sportsbook mobile account cash deposits at the facility.

The Caesars Racebook app also recently launched for Massachusetts customers, offering a full horse racing wagering menu and livestreaming from racetracks around the world. Customers who wager with Caesars Sportsbook and Caesars Racebook can enjoy unparalleled access to unforgettable experiences available only through the industry-leading customer loyalty program Caesars Rewards.

This partnership brings together Raynham Park – with more than 80 years of gaming experience in Massachusetts – with an industry leader in responsible gaming and responsible gaming education in Caesars. Upon launching in the Commonwealth, Caesars Sportsbook will continue to emphasize responsible gaming education and the importance of customers staying in control of their play through tools available on the Caesars Sportsbook app, including Deposit Limits, Spending Limits, Daily Time Limits, and Cool Off Time Limits.

Showcasing our vibrant portfolio of games in markets such as the UK, Croatia, Greece, Italy, Denmark, Estonia and Mexico, our relationship with Betsson is an ever developing one.

Buenos Aires is a vibrant regulated market with significant potential for growth within the digital online gaming community. Players can now enjoy unique and innovative games such as Wanted Dead or a Wild, Le Bandit and R.I.P City for the first time ever, and we can’t wait for them to immerse themselves in the Hacksaw experience.

Impressively, this is our third expansion with Betsson in the last 4 months, having gone live with many fan favourites in both Croatia, Spain and now Buenos Aires. Equally noteworthy, looking at Betsson’s multiple brands Nordicbet, Betsafe, Europebet, Starcasino.IT and Casinoeuro to name a few, it’s not difficult to see why they’re one of the biggest fish in the vast online gaming ocean.

Founded in 1963 and starting off their industry leading operations with just a humble slot machine, Betsson Group is now an industry pioneer with licences in 23 jurisdictions. “We couldn’t be more thrilled to mark another pivotal moment in our partnership with Hacksaw Gaming.” Kevin Saliba – Commercial Director, Business Development went on to say, “This latest launch not only strengthens our bond but also promises to elevate the gaming experience for our players in Buenos Aires, who are in for a treat with Hacksaw’s exceptional portfolio of games.”

Marcus Cordes, Hacksaw Gaming CEO is just as delighted with the growth – “Expanding on what Betsson has stated, we’re elated to extend our game offerings to yet another jurisdiction of their esteemed players.

The Responsible Online Gaming Association (ROGA), an independent trade association launched by seven of the largest U.S. legal mobile gaming companies, will actively promote a new industry-wide best practices charter, overseen by one of the world’s foremost experts in the field of responsible gaming (RG).

This unprecedented effort will be led by Dr. Jennifer Shatley, a deeply respected responsible gaming executive with more than 25 years of experience in the industry. She will serve as ROGA’s full-time Executive Director, and her role will be to facilitate widespread education to all relevant parties on the subject of responsible gaming.

ROGA will embark on a series of initiatives under Dr. Shatley’s direction. These include research, consumer and industry responsible gaming education and awareness, promoting responsible gaming best practices, an independent data clearinghouse, and an independent certification program.

Demonstrating their commitment to this endeavor, initial member companies – who together represent more than 85% of the legalized online sports betting and iGaming industry – have pledged more than $20 million in support of ROGA’s mission in year one. ROGA’s member companies include BetMGM, bet365, DraftKings, Fanatics Betting and Gaming, FanDuel, Hard Rock Digital, and PENN Entertainment.

“I am humbled, honored, and excited to be selected to lead ROGA during this important period of growth in legalized mobile gaming. Many of America’s largest legal mobile gaming operators will be establishing a framework that helps to aid in responsible gaming education and awareness. Together, our members will work alongside researchers, experts, regulators and stakeholders to promote responsible online gaming and maximize our efforts to support additional responsible gaming education and awareness. By coming together with a clear set of objectives, ROGA and our members will work to enhance consumer protections and help provide easier and more efficient access to responsible gaming tools for consumers to enjoy the entertainment of online gaming,” said Dr. Shatley.
