Bet365 enters Arizona, its 9th US state
Bet365 is now in its ninth state for operations. The platform has extended its presence in Arizona in association with the Ak-Chin Indian Community. They will now offer customers an enhanced experience in online sports betting. The move comes days before the Super Bowl LVIII national event, which is scheduled to happen on February 11, 2024, in Las Vegas.
Both Bet365 and the Ak-Chin Indian Community have hailed the development. It brings to the table a large number of offerings, including, but not limited to, the fastest in-game product, amazing bet boosts, and same-game parlays. The spokesperson for Bet365 has confirmed this. They added that Arizona boasts several professional and college teams contributing to exhilarating championship events.
The Ak-Chin Indian Community has expressed its excitement. Robert Miguel, the Community’s Chairman, has said they welcome the partnership and are excited to have Bet365 in the region.

Bet365 is now in Louisiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Virginia, Iowa, New Jersey, Indiana, and Colorado, in addition to Arizona. Bet365 entered Indiana last month to make it its eighth state. An entry in Indiana has been marked in partnership with French Lick Resort.
