JERSEY CITY, NJ (May 21, 2025) – BetMGM, a leading iGaming and sports betting operator, has been named North America Casino Operator of the Year at the SBC Awards Americas. The award honors a casino operator who demonstrates outstanding innovation, commercial success and growth throughout the year. BetMGM has been named Casino Operator of the Year by the SBC Awards four of the previous five years.

 

Angus Nisbet, Vice President of Gaming, BetMGM, said, “Thank you to SBC for this prestigious recognition. Winning this award for the fourth time solidifies BetMGM Casino as a standard-bearer for continued excellence in iGaming. It emboldens us to keep investing in our product, which brings players thousands of games, exclusive slots, thrilling jackpots and the biggest titles.”

Winners were announced at the SBC Awards ceremony on May 14 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, after being chosen by a judging panel of industry executives and leaders.

 

BetMGM earned Casino Operator of the Year through increased investment in iGaming. The operator expanded its slot and live dealer content highlighted by first-to-market games and partnerships with television, movie and game show brands. BetMGM awarded a record $6.5 million progressive jackpot in August 2024 which was the largest in the history of the legalized U.S. iGaming industry at the time.

 

BetMGM also received silver in the category of Employer of the Year at the SBC Awards Americas. The company earned recognition for its superior employee care through benefits, internal communications and career development.

 

BetMGM’s award-winning online casino is home to over 5,400 titles across North American markets and one of the largest state-by-state exclusive progressive jackpot networks. BetMGM’s jackpot network currently consists of over 25 games including popular titles such as MGM Grand Millions, Bison Fury, and 15 Lanterns. Players can earn BetMGM Rewards Points and Tier Credits by playing at BetMGM Casino. BetMGM Rewards points can be redeemed for digital bonuses, MGM Rewards Points and Marriott Bonvoy Points.

 

As BetMGM continues to expand into new markets and introduce new features, responsible gaming remains a key focus. Additionally, BetMGM is proud to provide resources to help customers play responsibly including GameSense, an industry leading program, developed and licensed to MGM Resorts by the British Columbia Lottery Corporation. Through the integration within BetMGM’s mobile and desktop platforms, customers can receive the same GameSense experience they have grown to rely on at MGM Resorts properties nationwide. This complements BetMGM’s already existing responsible gambling tools which serve to provide customers with an entertaining and safe digital experience.
