WynnBET, the online sports betting and igaming app from Wynn Resorts, has expanded its market presence in the US.

The app is now available for consumers in the state of Louisiana, making the Bayou State the 17th jurisdiction in which the firm has secured varying degrees of market access.

Louisiana joins a list of states where WynnBET is currently available which includes Arizona, Colorado, Indiana, Michigan, New Jersey, Tennessee and Virginia. 

The app currently has varying degrees of market access to 17 states covering approximately 46% of the US population. 

WynnBET noted it is also in negotiations to obtain access in seven additional states, which would result in its footprint covering approximately 77% of the US adult population.

At the end of August, the app was one of several firms to reach an agreement with the National Football League (NFL) to become an Approved Sportsbook Operators for the 2021 NFL season.

In September, WynnBET also agreed to a deal with Genius Sports to obtain access to the NFL’s official play-by-play statistics, proprietary Next Gen Stats data and official sports betting data feed.
