PSH online casino launches online sports betting in N.J.

This month, PlaySugarHouse.com launched a new service consisting of sports betting integrated with its online casino. This is the latest online casino in NJ to feature online sports betting.

The website went live on August 23rd at 6 a.m. after receiving approval from New Jersey’s gambling regulators.

At the same time, the SugarHouse Online Sportsbook & Casino is the first online sports betting to be associated with the license of the Golden Nugget casino in Atlantic City, which has an online affiliation with Philadelphia’s SugarHouse casino.

PlaySugarHouse.com is operated by Rush Street Interactive. At the moment, Rush Street Interactive operates a regulated online and mobile sports book in Colombia.

According to Richard Schwartz, it was very helpful that PlaySugarHouse.com was the first gaming operator based in the US to launch a regulated online sportsbook outside the country. It helped establish the SugarHouse Online Sportsbook & Casino. Richard Schwartz is the president of Rush Street Interactive.

The company said that gamblers will be able to switch between sports betting and online casino gambling using the unified player accounts, wallets and bonus points.
