BetMGM Casino is the 2025 American Gambling Awards Online Casino of the Year
The American Gambling Awards is pleased to announce BetMGM (NYSE:MGM), a leading iGaming and sports betting operator, is the 2025 Online Casino of the Year. Marking its fourth consecutive win in this highly competitive category, BetMGM continues to set the standard for excellence in the industry.
The American Gambling Awards, produced by Gambling.com Group Limited (NASDAQ:GAMB) ("Gambling.com Group" or the "Group"), honor the top companies and executives shaping the regulated U.S. online gambling landscape and are recognized as a benchmark for excellence in the sector.
"We're honored to be named Online Casino of the Year, a recognition that highlights the dedication of our team and the strength of our platform," said Adam Greenblatt, CEO of BetMGM. "From record-breaking jackpots to new gaming experiences, we're proud to deliver a platform that excites, entertains, and rewards our growing community, while continuing to innovate and explore new ways to engage players in U.S. iGaming."
BetMGM Casino has strengthened its position as a leader in U.S. iGaming through marquee partnerships, exclusive IP, and omnichannel experiences. The company is the exclusive home of Friends and The Wizard of Oz (WOZ) slot franchises, debuting a new WOZ title every quarter. Through a multi-year rights deal with Fremantle, BetMGM secured exclusive online casino rights to iconic game shows including The Price Is Right and Family Feud. These partnerships, along with over 30 team- and league-branded games, are key drivers of cross-sell between sports and iGaming, improving conversion by 11.5 percentage points year-over-year.
BetMGM Casino's platform offers more than 5,400 titles, one of the largest jackpot networks in North America, exclusive games, recognizable consumer brands, and compelling engagement tools. These offerings have driven strong year-over-year growth: deposits up 37%, average monthly actives up 42%, and NGR up 25%. In August, a player in New Jersey won a $6.5 million jackpot—the largest in the history of regulated U.S. iGaming at the time.
"Winning Online Casino of the Year for the fourth consecutive year is a testament to the vision and execution of Adam Greenblatt and the entire BetMGM leadership team," said Charles Gillespie, Chief Executive Officer & co-founder of Gambling.com Group. "Through innovative player experiences, exclusive IP, and strategic partnerships, BetMGM has consistently set the standard in the online casino space, raising the bar for engagement, entertainment, and player satisfaction."
BetMGM's connection with MGM Resorts International allows players to redeem BetMGM Rewards Points for digital bonuses, MGM Rewards points, or Marriott Bonvoy Points, seamlessly bridging the gap between digital play and real-world experiences. Omni titles account for approximately 50% of the top-grossing slots, and offering exclusive titles with familiar IP significantly boosts player engagement and loyalty. iGaming revenue increased 28% year-over-year in the first half of 2025, reinforcing BetMGM as a leading, entertainment-driven online casino brand.
