PrizePicks officially licensed in Puerto Rico and Maine, inch closer to total US operations

by

This marks the debut as the first officially endorsed Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) platform in Puerto Rico! With ongoing growth throughout the United States, PrizePicks is now open for use in Maine as well.

Fantastic update for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) enthusiasts: PrizePicks has secured full licensing in Puerto Rico and Maine! This move signifies a significant leap in their nationwide expansion across the United States, making them the pioneering DFS operator to hold a gambling license in Puerto Rico.

Regarding Maine, they’re set to introduce a game named “Arena”. This isn’t your typical game; it’s a “Pick-em” type where you place bets on the statistics and performances of two or more players. If your prediction comes true, you’ll receive a cash prize.

In Maine, gamers can enjoy PrizePicks right now, but residents of Puerto Rico will need to be patient as the licensing process is taking more time in their region. It’s anticipated that the service will become available in Puerto Rico within the next few months.

Thanks to PrizePicks’ growth, users can now explore one of the widely recognized gaming platforms in the industry. In fact, YouTube channels such as DGFantasy offer tutorials for beginners on how to get started with them. Nevertheless, be wary that some content creators may promote potentially damaging advice, suggesting there’s a simple way to amass wealth. Just like any other gambling site, we strongly recommend users approach this platform primarily as a form of entertainment rather than a means to earn money.

Why is PrizePicks’ expansion in Puerto Rico and Maine important?

At present, PrizePicks is one of the services committed to promoting responsible gaming. They have been recognized with the “iCAP accreditation” from the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG), acknowledging their dedication to responsible gaming practices and initiatives.

The Internet Compliance Assessment Program (iCAP) is a certification designed to safeguard users by providing them with protective tools and services. Consequently, in order to obtain this certification, Prizepicks underwent thorough evaluations and independent reviews.

We appreciate the collaboration and assistance from both the Puerto Rico Gaming Commission and the Maine Gambling Control Unit during our licensing procedure. The enthusiastic response to Arena in various parts of the U.S. has been noteworthy, and we believe this momentum will extend into these newly established regions as well.
