Betr announced today the rollout of its innovative peer-to-peer Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) product, “Group Mode,” for Betr Picks, alongside the soft launch of the new Betr Sportsbook.
Expanded Reach for Betr Picks
Group Mode has extended Betr Picks’ availability to 33 states plus Washington, D.C. Currently live in Florida and Massachusetts, the game will soon launch in Virginia, Arizona, Tennessee, Missouri, Alabama, West Virginia, New Hampshire, and Delaware. This expansion allows Betr Picks to be accessible in 34 jurisdictions, covering 65% of the U.S. population.
Group Mode enables users to enjoy Betr Picks in a peer-to-peer setting, where they compete against each other rather than the house. This move is particularly significant as several states have introduced regulations against DFS competitions that pit users directly against the house, making Group Mode a strategic solution for Betr to expand its offerings in such regions.
New Betr Sportsbook Now Live in Key States
Simultaneously, Betr has taken a significant step by launching its Betr Sportsbook in Ohio and Virginia. The Betr Sportsbook represents the company’s expansion beyond its initial microbetting focus, offering a comprehensive suite of betting options, including same game parlays, player props, futures, exotics, and other traditional markets, both pre-match and in-play.
The company plans to expand the sportsbook to Indiana and Maryland in the coming months, leveraging its temporary sports betting licenses in these states. Further launches are anticipated in Pennsylvania, Colorado, and Kentucky, contingent on the acquisition of the necessary sports betting licenses.
Built on the Chameleon platform, which Betr acquired from Fans Unite in May 2023, the Betr Sportsbook positions the company as a growing contender in the online sports betting market.
A Word from Betr’s Leadership
“We are thrilled to launch Group Mode for Betr Picks and to introduce the new Betr Sportsbook,” said Joey Levy, Founder and CEO of Betr. “These product launches mark a significant milestone for Betr. With Betr Picks now available to 65% of the U.S. population, we can engage millions of new sports fans. The Betr Sportsbook sets us on a path to becoming a leading competitor in the Online Sports Betting industry, alongside top fantasy sports pick’em operators. While we have significant product improvements on the horizon, we are proud of the rapid progress we’ve made.”
Strategic Expansion and Future Plans
Founded in 2022 by Joey Levy, Betr also brought on Jake Paul as president in the same year. The company’s rapid growth and strategic product launches signal its intent to become a dominant player in both the DFS and sports betting landscapes across the United States.
