Fanatics Betting and Gaming Launches in Michigan
Michigan's betting and gaming landscape has taken a significant leap forward with the introduction of Fanatics Betting and Gaming services to its roster. This move was finalized in August 2023 when Fanatics acquired PointsBet's US operations, marking a pivotal moment in the expansion of its offerings across the United States. With the necessary regulatory approvals secured to rebrand and acquire PointsBet's US business, Fanatics made its grand debut in Michigan on February 22nd, heralding a new era for online casino and sports betting enthusiasts in the state.A Seamless Transition
For users eager to dive into this upgraded betting experience, the process is straightforward. The first step involves downloading the Fanatics app, which serves as the gateway to a wide array of casino and sports betting services. Existing PointsBet users will find the transition seamless. They are required to log in with their current credentials to access their accounts. Meanwhile, newcomers to the platform need to register to create an account. Fanatics has ensured that all player preferences and bonus points from PointsBet have been diligently migrated to the new system, ensuring a smooth transition for all users.

The reach of Fanatics Betting and Gaming is not limited to Michigan alone; the company boasts operations in twelve additional states. Notably, it offers online casino services in West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and now Michigan.
