Checkd Group’s FlashPicks enjoys “significant” early progress in US

FlashPicks currently features sign-up deals with operator partners FanDuel Sportsbook, BetMGM, Caesars Sportsbook and PointsBet, with more to follow in the coming months.

In its opening month, FlashPicks reported 1.8 million organic Twitter impressions and 28,000 unique users on the website across 75,000 website sessions.

FlashPicks is live in all states in the US, with consumers in New Jersey, New York, Iowa, Wyoming, Washington DC and Indiana able to utilise the operator links.

Checkd Group said it is currently working on gaining affiliate licensing in a dozen of other states.

“Having been carefully planned for a number of months, we are delighted to be able to take FlashPicks live in the US and to offer sports enthusiasts across the country the chance to place bets through our operator partners,” Callum Broxton of Checkd Group said.

“For so many would-be punters, this will be the first time they have ever placed a bet legally and we can be the first port of call to provide them with all of the information needed to inform their decisions.

“The early figures we are seeing are extremely encouraging following another landmark moment in the history of Checkd Group. In occurring at a pivotal juncture in the history of legal online sports betting across the US, we believe we can offer a level of insight and expertise that will make us an important voice in the conversation going forward.”
