DraftKings is gearing up for a major expansion into Missouri, having secured a key mobile sports betting license from the Missouri Gaming Commission. This license is one of just two available for mobile platforms in the state, giving DraftKings a solid competitive edge.

Matt Kalish, DraftKings North America President, expressed his enthusiasm about the move, highlighting Missouri’s passionate fanbase and the presence of several professional sports teams. He emphasized that the company is eager to enhance the sports experience for locals with its dynamic and responsible mobile platform.

The launch in Missouri is a significant milestone for DraftKings as it becomes the 29th state where the company will operate, alongside its presence in Ontario and Washington, D.C.
