MGM Resorts<\/strong> has completed an agreement to acquire technology platform Tipico US<\/strong>, a deal managed by LeoVegas AB.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As announced this morning, Tipico US’s technology platform will be integrated with LeoVegas, helping MGM advance its plans to launch its own sportsbook in international markets under various brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The acquisition is LeoVegas’ second strategic investment in developing MGM’s new online gambling offering, which will be independent of the BetMGM<\/strong> joint venture operated in the US by Entain Plc.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the deal, market leader DACH Tipico Sportwetten <\/strong>will cease its operations in the US, where the company has operated since 2020 in New Jersey and Colorado. It is likely that the company will be acquired by MGM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LeoVegas said it will “acquire certain of Tipico’s management, technology and sales teams operating in the US, Colombia and Europe.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LeoVegas CEO Gustav Hagman, who headed the Tipico US platform, emphasized: \u201cBy controlling our own sportsbook technology, we ensure that we will deliver the world\u2019s greatest iGaming experience to customers across all our markets and brands.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powering our strong brands with a competitive and innovative sports product will enable us to grow and strengthen our sportsbook offering in both new and existing markets. I look forward to welcoming the talented teams from Tipico\u2019s US business into the LeoVegas Group very soon\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2022, MGM acquired LeoVegas for $600 million, a key step in the NYSE gaming group’s strategy to create a standalone international online gambling enterprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Led by MGM-owned LeoVegas, sports betting brand BetMGM has been launched in the UK and the Netherlands from 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MGM is supporting LeoVegas in the development of their separate digital properties, as stated by Gary Fritz<\/strong>, President of MGM Resorts International Interactive: \u201cThe acquisition of Tipico\u2019s award-winning U.S. platform marks a significant milestone in the strategic development of MGM Resorts\u2019 global digital gaming business, allowing us to operate a proprietary sports betting platform. This acquisition gives us control of our entire technology ecosystem, and we are delighted to bring Tipico\u2019s US team, with their track record of developing high-quality product and pricing capabilities, into our business.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
