Adam Greenblatt, CEO of BetMGM, said: “Winning Online Casino of the Year for the third consecutive year is a testament to the hard work of many and our unrelenting drive to deliver the best player experience.”

“We thank Gambling.com Group for this prestigious recognition. It is another highlight in a year filled with innovative partnerships, more commitments to responsible gaming, and a BetMGM player winning the largest jackpot in U.S. iGaming history,” he added.

For his part, Charles Gillespie, Gambling.com Group co-founder and CEO, commented: “Congratulations to Adam Greenblatt and the entire BetMGM leadership team on their third consecutive win as Online Casino of the Year at the American Gambling Awards.” 

“This category has always been fiercely contested and 2024 was no different. BetMGM has consistently distinguished itself through its exclusive game offerings and first-to-market launches, including landmark titles like Buffalo and the NBA-endorsed slot games. Their ability to consistently execute on both the big picture and fine details of delivering their online casino product has led them to this top honor yet again,” he concluded.

In the past year, BetMGM Casino has strengthened its position as a leader in the industry, offering exclusive titles and first-to-market game launches. In 2023, it became the first online casino in the world to launch the land-based favorite Buffalo and currently holds the U.S. record for the largest progressive jackpot at $6 million in New Jersey. BetMGM Casino also became the exclusive home of the first NHL, MLB, and NBA-endorsed slot games, welcoming headlining titles like The Godfather, Star Trek, and Ace Ventura to its game library.

BetMGM’s victory comes from smart strategies aimed at keeping players engaged and optimizing bonus spending. One standout initiative was the Super Bowl Spins Giveaway, which distributed over 1 million bonus spins, utilizing its NFL partnership to attract more customers. The MGM Riches campaign rewarded players for joining both online and at MGM locations, making it easy to enjoy their benefits. Plus, BetMGM collaborated with Marriott Bonvoy to give customers more ideas to earn rewards that can be used at MGM Resorts and Marriott hotels around the world.

BetMGM is equally committed to keeping players engaged and satisfied while promoting responsible gaming. The company is enhancing its award-winning GameSense program and has expanded its important partnership with Kindbridge Behavioral Health, demonstrating its dedication to player well-being.
