Kindred Group Teams up with Mohegan Sun Pocono In Pennsylvania

Kindred Group (formerly Unibet Group), has teamed up with Mohegan Sun, a popular hotel and casino in Pocono, PA, for the distribution of the former’s online and offline betting services in the state. After a string of successful ventures, including a partnership with Pragmatic Play, the group continues to strengthen their position in regulated markets by means of collaboration with other industry leaders.

According to the terms of the deal, this partnership is expected to last five years, however…

…estimates are that casino goers may expect even longer provision of the increasingly popular form of entertainment. Namely, the agreement between the state and Kindred Group could possibly be extended for two additional five-year terms.

Legal Requirements

Gambling in the state of Pennsylvania is not fully restrictive. Ever since the overturn of PASPA and the nation-wide sports betting legalization in October 2018…

…the state has been actively issuing licenses to eligible operators, with the first ever, entirely lawful, bet placed in November 2018.

The newly signed coalition provides a means for the Unibet brand customers to a fully equipped online sportsbook, comprehensive casino experience and a lounge at the venue in PA.

Manuel Stan, from SVP Kindred US, said:

“We are excited and proud to extend our US footprint into one of the largest US states to regulate both online sports betting and casino. Finding a strong partner who shares Kindred’s dedication to customer experience and values has been critical, and I am delighted that we have found just that in Mohegan Sun Pocono. I am confident that Kindred and Mohegan Sun Pocono will offer customers in Pennsylvania a truly great online sports betting and casino experience.”

Following in the steps of New Jersey and several other U.S. states, Pennsylvania has become yet another territory where the KG company can, in full view of the law, begin conducting wagering and betting services for the ever-increasing numbers of passionate punters.

The company’s management is taking serious steps towards regulated gambling in general, not only in the US, but also in Europe. Last year in August, this brand applied for a license to operate iGaming in Sweden.

Mohegan Sun Pocono is a Perfect Choice

The Pocono facility is located outside Plains, PA, and comes under the umbrella of the Mohegan Gaming and Entertainment establishment. At the location, customers can stay in a luxurious hotel, experience the best food, drinks, shopping and gaming entertainment on offer.

Needless to say, the collaboration between the two businesses is expected to generate success – one offers a great and fun destination, and the other is experienced in digital customer service and data analysis.

Aviram Alroy, VP interactive gaming at Mohegan Gaming and Entertainment, commented:

“We’ve aligned with one of the best online casino and sport book operators in online regulated markets which will allow us to offer best in class experience to our existing customers as well as attracting new one. Introduction of the Kindred offering to the market is a great positive for Mohegan Sun as well as the state of Pennsylvania.”
