Single Account For Sports Betting And Horse Racing

Customers rejoice FanDuel has officially launched its shared wallet feature.

The announcement follows a successful soft launch making FanDuel the first US operator to offer parimutuel horse racing and sports betting under a single account.

The company said the measure is part of FanDuel’s ongoing investment in customer experience and its continuing commitment to introducing a new generation of audiences to horse racing.

Where The Shared Wallet Is Available

The merged wallet feature is currently available in nine states.

Colorado
Illinois
Indiana
Maryland
Michigan
New York
West Virginia
Wyoming
Virginia

The company also said the shared wallet feature will expand to other states early next year.

A Welcome Addition To The FanDuel Sports Betting App

The feature is a welcome addition, especially for those multi-sport bettors. Prior to the shared wallet feature, FanDuel Sportsbook customers had to open separate accounts for horse racing and traditional sports betting.

In a statement, FanDuel CEO Amy Howe said horse racing is a big part of the company’s DNA and that this is a significant opportunity to expose a broader, engaged audience to the sport in a familiar environment.

Do More With FanDuel TV

The new feature will also allow customers the ability to wager on and stream horse racing coverage from FanDuel TV. In August, newly appointed chief commercial officer Mike Raffensperger announced FanDuel was launching a 24-hour content network.

FanDuel TV, the re-branding of its TVG network, provides studio programming and live sports content hosted by the group’s influencer partners. Other re-brands are FanDuel Racing (TVG2) and FanDuel+ (TVG OTT).
