FSB makes steps towards further US expansion after Nevada licence recommendation

FSB has been “unanimously recommended” for a Nevada licence by the state’s Gaming Control Board, marking a “significant step forward” in the sports betting and igaming service provider’s commercial strategy.

If awarded a Manufacturers and Information Service Provider licence, FSB will be able to supply both its wagering and icasino services across the Silver State. 

FSB explained that the provision of its omnichannel sportsbook across Nevada will help its partners to “carefully curate the exact sports betting experience required for their player base”. 

Dave McDowell, Chief Executive Officer at FSB, said: “We aspire to be part of the long-term sports betting and iGaming story in Nevada and North America generally and this licensing application clearly communicates our deep ambitions.

“Securing regulatory approval in Nevada is a true trust stamp on the quality of a service provider and as a Tier 1 supplier with a laser focus on key regulated global markets this is a jurisdiction we simply have to be present in.”

FSB has been expanding its footprint across the North American market as of late, having recently secured a licence in South Dakota and Ontario.

Ian Freeman, Chief Revenue Officer at FSB, added: Commercially, we identified Nevada as a key strategic state for FSB. Our product capabilities and the market opportunity are very well aligned. We are very thankful to the NGCB for their time and attention. 

“It has been a very thorough process undertaken by extremely professional people. This milestone represents a significant step forward towards realising our commercial goals.”
