By Phil - 16 December 2019

Gaming Innovation Group Inc. (GiG) has successfully launched a mobile friendly online sportsbook in Iowa for partner Hard Rock International.

This is in addition to the over-the-counter solution on the casino floor at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Sioux City in Iowa which launched in September.

Chris Armes, Chief Information Officer at GiG said: “The project went live smoothly after many weeks of hard work from both GiG and Hard Rock. We are pleased to entertain consumers with a safe and exciting first-class omnichannel sports betting experience.”

Hard Rock is now offering the same experience in Iowa to its consumers as it has already delivered in New Jersey, with an omni-channel sportsbook solution based on GiG’s modern and flexible technology.

Kresimir Spajic, Senior Vice President of Online Gaming at Hard Rock International, added: “We’re excited to extend our partnership with GiG to support sports betting in Iowa, and further grow our sportsbook portfolio.”

Jim Franke, General Manager of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Sioux City, said: “Offering sports betting through GiG provides our players and guests a new level of engagement – we couldn’t be more thrilled to be launching in Iowa.”
