Hacksaw Gaming and DraftKings hook up in Ontario
Hacksaw titles will come to DraftKings Casino app in province
Hacksaw Gaming and DraftKings already have a good thing going in North America and they have now extended their partnership to Ontario.
More than 300 of Hacksaw’s titles will be available for Ontarians to play on the DraftKings Casino app in the province. The available games include Hacksaw’s popular titles such as Chaos Crew, Mines, Omnom and Boxes.
The companies had previously linked up in West Virginia and then in New Jersey in December 2023 in a deal that also gave DraftKings users exclusive access to Hacksaw’s first 10 games in the market for the two weeks following the deal.
In the U.S., Hacksaw also has alliances with other operators such as Rush Street Interactive and BetMGM and it extended its partnership with the latter in West Virginia earlier this month by supplying its raft of games for RSI’s BetRivers brand.
“The benchmarks we have set as a partnership are remarkable, and we are ready to take on more challenges continuing into 2024,” said Marcus Cordes, CEO of Hacksaw Gaming.
Hacksaw cuts further into Ontario market
Hacksaw Gaming first entered Ontario in 2022 and has already laid down roots with DraftKings and other partners in the province.
It launched with Mobinc‘s white-label solution in the province’s regulated online gaming market in March 2023 and struck agreements that are similar to its new DraftKings deal with BetMGM in May 2023 and Caesars Digital in December.
Meanwhile, DraftKings has also bolstered its responsible gaming efforts by deepening its partnership with Kindbridge Behavioral Health.
The two companies had a pilot program in Colorado aimed at providing readily accessible treatment for problem gambling and they have now extended that initiative to cover all of DraftKings’ jurisdictions including Ontario.
