BetMGM, one of the world’s leading sports betting operators, has officially partnered with Casino del Mar at La Concha Resort to open a new retail sportsbook at the Mayagüez Resort and Casino. This marks BetMGM’s first expansion beyond San Juan and a major milestone for the development of Puerto Rico’s regulated gaming ecosystem.
The collaboration between BetMGM and Casino del Mar, which began three years ago, has already established a successful blueprint for sustainable gaming operations in San Juan. Building on that foundation, the new Mayagüez sportsbook aims to extend premium sports betting and entertainment experiences to the western region of Puerto Rico.
According to Rolando Padua, president of Paulson Puerto Rico, the expansion reflects the companies’ commitment to providing high-quality, responsible entertainment throughout the island. The development also aligns with the regulatory guidelines of the Puerto Rico Gaming Commission, ensuring compliance, transparency, and player protection.
Puerto Rico’s sports betting market continues to evolve rapidly, attracting top international brands such as BetMGM and FanDuel, alongside emerging local operators. The expansion of BetMGM’s footprint not only enhances accessibility for bettors but also contributes to regional economic growth, job creation, and tourism diversification.
With plans for additional satellite locations in the near future, BetMGM and Casino del Mar are positioned to redefine Puerto Rico’s iGaming landscape merging global expertise with local trust to shape a responsible, dynamic, and thriving betting market.
