ESPN BET

PENN Entertainment’s Strategic Sportsbook Offering

The ESPN BET brand represents a significant strategic shift for operator PENN Entertainment, combining the media powerhouse of ESPN with PENN’s proprietary in-house technology and operational expertise in the gambling sector.

The sportsbook operates as a replacement for the former Barstool Sportsbook, with all previous accounts, including balances, transaction history, responsible gaming limits, stored payment methods, and open wagers, being transferred to the new platform.

A core element of the offering is the commitment to Responsible Gaming, providing customers with comprehensive tools to set limits on time, deposits, and wagering amounts. The operator underscores that all users must be 21 years of age or older to place wagers.

ESPN BET offers two primary digital products: the sportsbook and an integrated online Hollywood Casino offering.
