PlayUp is going to join the competitive Pennsylvania online casino market.
The company, known as a sportsbook operator, is branching into iGaming and announced last week that it is entering the Iowa online gaming market when it launches. PlayUp has its online sportsbook running in New Jersey and Colorado.
"It's no secret that the sports betting sector is ultra competitive in the U.S.," PlayUp CEO Dr. Laila Mintas said in a media release. "The way we look to cut through the noise is to offer unparalleled customer service and experiences for our VIPs, and provide our patrons gaming and entertainment options beyond just sports betting. iGaming and other services are central to our roadmap of including a wide breadth and depth of options in our product portfolio."

PlayUp operates in Australia, New Zealand and India as well as the U.S. market. There was no timetable available for when PlayUp’s PA online product would go live.
