BetMGM and the Associated Press (AP) have agreed a deal for the sports betting and gaming company to become their new official odds provider.<\/strong><\/p>\n As part of the deal, the global news network will use BetMGM’s lines in its various formats. Also, the AP will retain all editorial control of its content.<\/p>\n Therefore, BetMGM will now fully supplement the AP\u2019s daily sports best odds fixtures, game previews as well as all sports stories with mentioned odds.<\/p>\n Furthermore, the partnership will help strengthen the relationship between the two industry powerhouses in their respective fields.<\/p>\n BetMGM is considered by many to be one of the best online gambling sites in the United States of America. The AP is a highly reputable not-for-profit U.S news agency that has been in operation since 1846.<\/p>\n Barry Bedlan, AP\u2019s director of global text and commercial products, said: \u201cPeople want trustworthy sports betting information. We are pleased to work with BetMGM to provide a dependable and credible reference point for our customers and audiences.\u201d<\/p>\n Matt Prevost, BetMGM Chief Revenue Officer shared his excitement at the new deal. He explained it is a brilliant opportunity to work alongside a news agency of the AP’s statue.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is a special opportunity for BetMGM to align with The Associated Press, a leading global news source that billions around the world rely on for the most up-to-date coverage.<\/p>\n \u201cBeing a trusted resource within that forum is an important connection to expand our reach, and we look forward to providing content that enhances the organisation\u2019s coverage,” he concluded.<\/p>\n Previously, the AP had a similar odds deal with FanDuel – owned by Flutter Entertainment. That deal came to fruition in May 2021.<\/p>\n That partnership also saw FanDuel odds being displayed across all of the AP’s sports pages, game previews and all forms of sports stories that mentioned odds.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the new deal means BetMGM continue to expand their presence. Not only do they have the deal with the AP, they are also working alongside X, formerly Twitter.<\/p>\n The strategic partnership sees them become the social media platform’s live odds sports betting partner. Earlier this month, BetMGM and Tottenham Hotspur announced they were on the cusp of a deal.<\/p>\n Reports indicate a multi-year deal has been agreed so the gambling operator will become the English Premier League club’s training kit partner.<\/p>\nBetMGM And The Associated Press<\/h2>\n
