Fanatics KY - Legal website in the U.S.

Online Sportsbook Fanatics

Fanatics was founded in 2011 by Alan Trager, Mitch Trager, and Michael Rubin. In 12 short years, they have turned this sportswear manufacturer into one of the top providers in the world of professional sports-branded sportswear and collectibles.

It wasn't much of a stretch when the company decided to leap into the U.S. sports betting industry. They made that leap by purchasing the U.S. online gambling assets of the Australia-based PointsBet in May 2023.

At the time of the purchase, the company pledged to come to market with an enhanced sports betting product and an online casino platform to boot. Mission accomplished! Over the last couple of months, Fanatics has been rolling out its new sports betting platform in the following states: AZ, CO, CT, IA, IL, IN, KY, MA, MD, MI, NY, OH, PA, TN, VA, VT, and WV. Note: Some of these states were already PointsBet license providers.

The Fanatics Sports Betting Platform

It would be fair to say that Fanatics has indeed upgraded the sports betting platform that they inherited from PointsBet. It looks professional and stylish, something that should have great appeal to U.S. sports bettors.

After a trip around the well-organized betting site, it becomes clear that the platform is easy to navigate when moving from one area to another. The platform's mobile app is fully compatible with Apple's iOS operating system as well as the Android operating system.

Betting Markets

From a competitive perspective, Fanatics is doing a great job at making sure its customers are getting access to the right sports betting markets. Each day, Fanatics offers a list of at least 25 different markets on which bettors can wager.

From the U.S., betting on college sports like basketball (men and women) football, and baseball is available during the regular seasons and playoffs. Also, betting is available on professional sports leagues like the NBAS, WNBA, MLS (soccer), NFL, MLB, NASCAR, NHL, and PGA Golf.

At the international level, dozens of markets are open for wagering. That would include professional baseball and basketball, the top international soccer leagues, rugby, darts, boxing/MMA, Formula 1 racing, Aussie Rules Football, cricket, and more.

Betting Options

Fanatics has done an equally good job at making sure its customers can place the kinds of wagers they like placing. That includes:

• Straight bets - point spread and money like


• Multi-leg parlays


• Future odds wagering on future outcomes


• Team and player proposition bets


• Live in-game wagering with free streaming


• Round robins
  

Customers will pleased to see that Fanatics management is open to considering large wagers from high rollers.

Bonuses and Promotions

At first blush, it looks like Fanatics intends to be very active in the bonus promo market. Bettors can expect to get access to intermittent offers of free bets, boosts, and the requisite bonus for referring friends and relatives.

The current welcome bonus across the board provides new customers with access to a $500 in Bonus Bets on day on and a $100 bonus for every day (on days 2-11) in a row that they place a $100 wager.

Banking and Customer Service

It's noteworthy that the available banking options could vary from one state to the next. At a minimum, customers should be able to transact via bank transfers, prepaid cards, and some e-wallet options.

Customer service representatives are available to help 24/7/365 via live chat, email, and phone.

Verdict: Everything Fanatics has touched has turned to gold. There is no reason not to believe the company's sports betting platform will make the grade.
