Earlier this week, it was announced that betting giant DraftKings has now launched its mobile and online sportsbook in Virginia, making the online sports betting platform available in twelve states around the country. Our review of the Draftkings Sportsbook in Virginia, covers all the details of the local launch.

The launch of the mobile and online sportsbook in the state will enable fans to bet on a range of sports. In addition, the provider has created a range of special promotions as part of its Virginia launch, and this will help to ensure many sports fans sign up for new accounts in order to take advantage of these offers and promos.

Providing a Customer-Focused Experience

Officials from DraftKings are looking forward to seeing the success of the new online sportsbook in Virginia. The provider hopes to impress sports fans by providing a customer-focused experience with a wide range of options.

Jason Robins, the CEO of DraftKings, said:

Just in time for Super Bowl LV, we are thrilled to bring the DraftKings sports betting experience to Virginia with an abundance of betting options for fans. With our customer-first approach, we hope to be the sportsbook of choice for Virginians who enjoy having skin in the game.

In addition to providing access to a range of sports and games, the new DraftKings digital sportsbook offers a range of features. These include measures to help aid responsible gaming including deposit and time limits, which can be set with ease.

Sports Fans Can Bet on a Range of Sports

The variety of sports betting options provided via the platform means that sports fans will find plenty to keep them entertained. According to a recent report, sports fans in the state are most likely to place bets on the NFL, then the NBA, and then college football.

Thanks to mobile sports betting, including the new DraftKings platform, they can now do this without having to visit a brick-and-mortar venue. Instead, fans can simply use their computers or smart devices to place bets, enjoy entertainment, and win money.

The Continued Expansion of Digital Sports Betting

Over the past year, digital sports betting has become hugely popular, with more and more states launching online and mobile sportsbooks. The legalization of mobile sports betting in many states has provided fans with increased convenience and ease when it comes to wagering.

The timing of the new launch for DraftKings is also ideal, as the second wave of the global pandemic has been creating huge issues across the country. Casinos in some states have been closed again over recent weeks following a lengthy period of closure earlier last year due to the first wave of COVID-19.

With access to online sportsbooks, fans can continue to place bets and support their favorite sports and teams without the need to visit a brick-and-mortar venue. This then means that they can continue to enjoy sports betting entertainment while sportsbooks can continue to bring in revenue.
