Fox Sports will become the first major U.S. media company to put its brand on a sports betting operator.
Fox Corp., the parent corporation of Fox Sports, announced Wednesday that it has purchased a 4.99 percent stake in online gambling company The Stars Group for approximately $236 million, according to a news release.
The companies plan to launch sports betting app Fox Bet this fall and will begin taking bets in states with regulated mobile sports betting. The Stars Group is operating an online sportsbook in New Jersey and plans to open in Pennsylvania, one of the states that has passed legislation allowing for online wagering.
In addition, the companies will offer a nationwide free-to-play game that will award contestants cash prizes for correctly predicting outcomes of games.
Sports Business Daily and Bloomberg first reported the partnership between Fox Sports and The Stars Group.
'Digital sports wagering represents a growing market opportunity that allows us to diversify our revenue streams, connect directly with consumers and expand the reach of the Fox Sports brand,' Eric Shanks, CEO and executive producer of Fox Sports, said in the release announcing the partnership.
