All of the games and betting odds will be the same across each casino. They will bear the casino's branding, not RSI's. RSI will be working with each casino over the coming months to design new user interfaces.
Keeley and RSI declined to provide an estimate for when it will launch.Īs they are now, virtual casino games will be offered through the state's casinos: Delaware Park, Bally's Dover and Harrington Raceway and Casino. The company is currently developing a poker platform, but it is not yet operational. Notably, RSI will not offer online poker at launch. The Lottery is negotiating an extension with 888 as their current agreement is due to expire at the end of October. RSI is expected to start operating in Delaware in 'early winter,' according to Keeley.
RSI and 888 were the only companies that responded to the Lottery's request for bids. Delaware Lottery Director Helene Keeley said RSI was chosen by a selection committee of lottery staff and state officials for its commitment to responsible gaming, customer service and quality products. Rush Street Interactive is replacing 888 Gaming, the only platform the state has used since the inception of online gambling or 'igaming' in 2013. The Delaware Lottery has reached an agreement with a global online gaming company that will introduce online sports betting in Delaware for the first time and take over the state's existing virtual casino games.
