  • Betr and Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment signed a 10-year partnership
  • The new micro-betting platform backed by Jake Paul secures Ohio sports betting market access
  • Ohio sports betting officially launches Jan. 1, 2023

After introducing themselves to the world earlier this week, Betr already has their sights set on the Ohio sports betting market.

Signing a 10-year partnership with Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment to become their official mobile sports-betting partner, Betr will be able to launch in the Buckeye State on or after Jan. 1, 2023. While the new micro-betting platform backed by Jake Paul has yet to go live, this announcement makes it clear they’ll be aggressive in emerging sports betting markets.

Betr Signs 10-Year Partnership for Ohio Sports Betting Access

Betr and Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment (HOFV) released an official announcement detailing the agreement that makes this new sports betting platform the official mobile app of the company based in Canton, OH. The Hall of Fame Village resort is located just outside of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and the company has now chosen Betr to be their online sports betting operator when Ohio wagering goes live.

This deal guarantees Ohio sports betting market access for the new micro-betting platform that is making a ton of noise just 72 hours after announcing their arrival. HOFV also gains limited equity interest in Betr and revenue sharing as part of this exciting agreement.

New Micro-Betting Platform Backed by Jake Paul

The new sports betting and media company introduced themselves earlier this week, with Jake Paul throwing his weight behind this new brand. The new company will start off with a weekly sports show called “BS With Jake Paul” before launching their sports betting platform, and Betr secured $50 million in funding from a wide variety of investors.

Co-founded with sports betting entrepreneur Joey Levy, Betr is touting itself as the first direct-to-consumer micro-betting focused sports betting platform. Micro-betting is a refined version of live (in-play) wagering that encourages fans to bet on any moment during a specific game as opposed to making outcome wagers long before an event has started.

While the Betr sports betting platform hasn’t launched yet, it’s obvious they’re moving quickly with this latest announcement.

Ohio Sports Betting Launches Jan. 1, 2023

The Ohio sports betting market is officially set to launch at midnight on Jan. 1, 2023, and it looks like Betr will be ready to participate in this highly-anticipated start date.

With other sports betting apps like Barstool Sportsbook Ohio and Caesars Sportsbook Ohio also expected to go live on day one, Ohio sports betting will hit the ground running on its way to becoming one of the biggest wagering industries in the country.
