- PENN Entertainment shares first product preview for ESPN BET
- Parlay+ among the first set of confirmed ESPN BET features
- ESPN BET launching across 17 states on Tuesday, Nov. 14
We’re starting to get a clear idea of what ESPN BET will look like.
PENN Entertainment shared the first product preview for the newly minted ESPN BET sportsbook during a Q3 earnings call. Standalone sportsbook features and media integrations with other ESPN digital platforms were unveiled, along with an official Nov. 14 launch date announcement.
Parlay+ Feature Highlights ESPN BET Product Preview
The Q3 earnings call from PENN Entertainment focused on four sportsbook product features that bettors can expect when they fire up the ESPN BET app for the first time:
- Parlay+: Same-game parlays that allow bettors to correlate multiple wagers from the same game, offering increased wagering flexibility and higher potential payouts.
- Quick Bets: Live betting markets touted as having “seamless navigation” to provide an enhanced experience.
- Featured Bets: Promotional content that leverages the ESPN brand name and its unique personalities standing behind highlighted wagers.
- Shareable Bet Slips: Bettors can easily share their bet slips across social media platforms, allowing for increased engagement with their favorite sports communities.
The standalone sportsbook features aren’t the only highlights from PENN’s Q3 earnings report, as the gaming giant also shared plans for integrating ESPN BET with other media platforms. Six-pack odds integration, personalized bet modules and content, ESPN Fantasy integration, and customized notifications with bet tracking through the ESPN mobile app were also highlighted.
