May 2018 saw probably most historic moment for sports enthusiasts in the United States of America as the country lifted the federal ban on sports betting. Post that, quite a few of the individual states started applying for licenses and started online casino and sports betting websites in the country. Now, some states even have multiple online sportsbooks running as operators.
One of them is Pennsylvania where we recently came to know that Betway will become their 13th online sports betting website ever since it became legal to offer sports betting online in the state. They conducted a 3-day, real-money test that started on Monday, 28th June and this was done under the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, in an exclusive partnership with Live! Casino Hotel Philadelphia.

After the 3-day test launch, pa.betway.com received permission to begin permanent operations in the state from Thursday, 1st July 2021. While they become the 13th to offer online sports betting, they’re the 17th website in the state to offer iGaming solutions and the test saw a total of 132 slot games including craps, three-card stud, video poker, blackjack, roulette, baccarat and more.
Betway had originally received its licensing approval in May itself but they were unsure of a launch date because in this state, all online sportsbook and igaming websites have to be tied up with a live casino operator. Betway finally decided to get into an agreement with Live! Philadelphia casino, which is owned and operated by Cordish Gaming Group.
They launched with a 100% deposit matched bonus up to $1,000, which is consistent with their welcome bonus in other regions across the world too. However, there’s a hefty 30x wagering requirement to claim the bonus funds as your own. For more updates on online casino websites and regulations from across the world, stay tuned to ReadScoops.com…
