Who runs DraftKings Casino?
DraftKings runs it. It completed its purchase of Golden Nugget Online Gaming in May 2022. Connecticut allows online casinos only through its two tribes, which is why the Mashantucket Pequot link matters there.
Where is DraftKings Casino licensed?
The official New Jersey and Pennsylvania lists name DraftKings Casino or its license holder, and reports link it to Connecticut and West Virginia. The table shows only what we could confirm. It is not a full list of states, because we could not open every regulator's current list, including Michigan's full list.
| State | Listed under or partner | How we know |
|---|---|---|
| New Jersey | Resorts | Official list, checked November 5, 2026 |
| Pennsylvania | Hollywood Casino at Penn National | Official list dated April 7, 2026 |
| Connecticut | Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, reported | Secondary reports only |
| West Virginia | Reported, not confirmed | Trade reports only |
Listing here is not a recommendation. The official list is the one to trust if it differs.
How do you check DraftKings Casino in your state?
Look for the exact site on your regulator's own list, not in the site's footer or on a review page. Being licensed in one state says nothing about another. Start at your state page, or see the licensed operators page for the New Jersey and Pennsylvania lists.
