Advancing its Digital Offerings

The company introduced an eSports same-game parlay product allowing players to combine bets in a single digital sports match for a better payout. Its Same Game Combos is available for games like League of Legends, Counter-Strike, and Dota 2.

Another example of boosting its online offerings is the launching of its cutting-edge Casino.exe on its iOS mobile app in Ontario which occurred in September 2023.
