Fanatics Sportsbook Finally Live in the U.S. After Six Months of Beta Testing

Fanatics Holdings, Inc.’s subsidiary, Fanatics Betting and Gaming, went live with its Fanatics Sportsbook in four U.S. states: Maryland, Massachusetts, Ohio, and Tennessee. 

Innovative and carefully crafted app:

The sportsbook went through six months of beta testing, and it is finally ready to be presented to the players. The app is carefully designed and crafted to allow fast registration and a smooth betting experience. The withdrawals are transparent, and searching is very easy as well, with an organized Discover page that is customizable for each customer.

Through the new app, the fans will be able to find live scores, plus lines and odds for the team they want to track. It contains all necessary information, including moneyline bets, spread bets, over-under, player props, live betting markets, and the players’ favorite Same Game Parlays (SGPs).

Scot McClintic, the company’s Chief Product Officer, said: “After six months of beta testing, we are excited to officially launch the Fanatics Sportsbook product to the public. We are laser-focused on solving pain points facing customers by offering a faster, easier, and more rewarding sports betting experience. The strategic patience to build a product for the long term has given us an opportunity to redefine a customer’s expectation of what a sportsbook should be. With the Fanatics Sportsbook product foundation built and wholly owned, customers should expect unparalleled speed of feature improvement, delivery, and innovation.”

Besides the smooth user interface, the sportsbook offers great rewards, thanks to FanCash – The Currency of Sport, a new loyalty program that will allow fans to enjoy some extraordinary rewards. Collecting FanCash allows the players to exchange it for Bonus Bets and even buy team merchandise at the company’s website.

The experience is tailored to suit each individual player, thanks to the advanced Fanatics Sportsbook Discover page’s algorithm. The search option is very advanced as well, featuring the search bar, recent searches, very useful autocomplete, as well as synonyms, and deep linking to useful pages. 

In control of everything:

One of the benefits of this app is that the players are able to track their money with the Withdrawal Tracker, ensuring that it is known where the money is during every minute of the withdrawal process.

Fanatics Betting and Gaming is different from other similar platforms because it offers the whole digital sports ecosystem because it’s backed by the parent company that is experienced in the sports industry. The player can buy team merchandise, place their bets, and find collectibles – all of that at the same place.

Fanatics Betting and Gaming recently acquired PointsBet and Banach Technology, so some parts of these companies will be integrated into the new sports betting app, including quantitative-driven trading models and risk and trading platform. 

The app will offer various professional and college sports, including football, basketball, hockey, baseball, golf, tennis, motorsports, boxing, MMA, and other popular and less popular sports. Among other resources that will be available to customers are Help Center, chat experience, and agents that will be available 24/7.

AI Is Making Buildings More Efficient

By Andrew R. Chow

Heating and lighting buildings requires a vast amount of energy: 18% of all global energy consumption, according to the International Energy Agency. Contributing to the problem is the fact that many buildings’ HVAC systems are outdated and slow to respond to weather changes, which can lead to severe energy waste. 

Some scientists and technologists are hoping that AI can solve that problem. At the moment, much attention has been drawn to the energy-intensive nature of AI itself: Microsoft, for instance, acknowledged that its AI development has imperiled their climate goals. But some experts argue that AI can also be part of the solution by helping make large buildings more energy-efficient. One 2024 study estimates that AI could help b…

Elise Smith Defends DEI as Good Business

By Andrew R. Chow

In recent years, right-leaning leaders in politics and tech like Donald Trump and Elon Musk have attacked the value of DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) initiatives. But for Elise Smith, the CEO and co-founder of the tech startup Praxis Labs, learning to navigate cultural differences is simply good business, especially for ambitious multinational companies with employees and clients around the world. “Regardless of what you think about the term DEI, this work will continue, because fundamentally it does drive better business outcomes,” says Smith, 34. “Fortune 500 companies are trying to figure out: How do we serve our clients and customers, knowing that there’s a ton of diversity within them Come from

How ReelShort CEO Joey Jia Used a Chinese Trend to Disrupt the U.S. Entertainment Industry

By Chad de Guzman

The first episode of “The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband” pans out like a daytime TV melodrama: a female protagonist asks her father and evil stepmother for $50,000 to pay for her mother’s kidney dialysis treatment. Cue an evil stepsister, who snarkily says that the payment is assured—if the lead marries the illegitimate son of a prominent family, who is supposedly a grade-A loser. Unsurprisingly, our hero relents.

All of this happens in just over 90 seconds. But while its brevity seems like a cheap trick, “The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband”—a show produced and distributed on the ReelShort app developed by Silicon Valley-based Crazy Maple Studio (one of the TIME100 Most Influential Companies of 2024)—has raked …

The Last of Us Part II Sounds Like a Bloody Revenge Story

By Matt Peckham

Of all the games for which sequels seem like iffy ideas, Naughty Dog‘s The Last of Us comes up on my short list. It’s there with others like Braid and Flower and Ico.

But yes, The Last of Us Part II is now officially a thing. Sony and Naughty Dog unveiled the game, presumably to follow in the original’s footsteps as a harrowing, narrative heavy action-adventure, during its PlayStation Experience event in Anaheim, Calif., this weekend.

In the 4-minute clip, we’re in a very pretty forest, then beside a tree with claw marks, then by the rusted hulk of a car. The camera pulls back to show the fireflies emblem — for the militant group from the first game — emblazo…

Amazon Says Fallout Season 2 Is Ahead of Schedule

Following the premiere of Fallout earlier this year, Prime Video didn’t waste any time renewing it for a second season. Now, after the show earned 16 Emmy nominations including for Outstanding Drama Series and a Best Actor in a Drama nod for Walton Goggins, the early word on Fallout Season 2 is very encouraging.

“Geneva [Robertson-Dworet] and Graham [Wagner] and Jonah [Nolan] and Kilter [Films] have such a vision for this. They are hard at work, we already have scripts in hand for Season 2,” said Amazon MGM Studios television head Vernon Sanders during an interview with The Wrap. “So we’re really far ahead because we knew we had something special all along. It’s premature for me to give you a release date. But I’ll tell you, we are working hard to be back as fast as possible… I think people will be pleased with how quickly we’re able to get the show back. We just want to make sure we deliver everything that is on the page.”

Sanders was also asked about a possible Fal…
