FanDuel Gains Michigan Approval to Launch Multi-State Online Poker

(AsiaGameHub) –   The firm has been granted approval to offer multi-state online poker services in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey.

United States – The Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has announced that FanDuel is now authorized to provide multi-state online poker in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey starting today (April 1). The operator’s new poker platform will leverage Flutter’s PokerStars brand in Michigan, with MotorCity Casino serving as its operational partner.

The regulator stated: “Following a comprehensive review, the MGCB determined that FanDuel meets all Michigan regulatory requirements to operate multi-state internet poker.” It added that the operator’s approval reinforces the MGCB’s commitment to enabling legal, regulated gaming opportunities while upholding responsible gaming practices and ensuring the industry’s integrity.

MGCB executive director Henry Williams said: “FanDuel is a well-established operator in Michigan’s gaming market. Michigan players can have confidence in the integrity of the games they play, backed by the same rigorous oversight the MGCB applies across all licensed gaming activities.”

Michigan joined the Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement (MSIGA) in 2022. The other states in the agreement are Delaware, Nevada, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Before joining MSIGA, Michigan poker players could only play online against other players within the state.
