FanDuel to resume operations in New York after law modification

4 August 2016

A Scottish tech firm is to resume its everyday dream sports operations in New york city, after a bill legalising the activity was signed into law.

FanDuel had to stop running in the state in November after regulators ruled dream sports firms' activities amounted to unlawful gambling.

The company also faced legal obstacles in a number of other states.

FanDuel later on cautioned it might not be able to continue as a going issue due to legal challenges in the US.

However, since January eight US states have actually passed laws "clarifying the legality" of dream sports, according to the company.

FanDuel, which was established in in 2009, claims six million registered users across the US and Canada. New york city is among its biggest markets.

Its technology platform allows sports fans to pick dream groups from genuine gamers, and follow their efficiencies.

'On death watch'

Chief executive Nigel Eccles welcomed the New York legislation, saying that sports fans in the state had actually sent out more than 110,000 letters and made nearly 3,000 calls to lawmakers backing FanDuel's case.

He said: "Last fall, in the middle of national debate, some experts put fantasy sports on death watch.

"But when the calendar turned to 2016 and fantasy sports fans had the opportunity to be heard and lawmakers had the opportunity to act, the dynamic rapidly shifted, and one by one states began to acknowledge this promotion code is a game loved by millions - millions who must be able to play and be worthy of the basic securities paid for to consumers in all major markets."

Earlier this promotion code week, FanDuel released its very first item in the UK - a new one-day fantasy football platform focusing on the English Premier League.

The relocation came after it struck a partnership deal with sports data supplier Opta.
