Fast-rising US sportsbook reaching ~8.3% GGR market share mid-2025; $178M NY revenue FY2025 (+100% YoY); backed by Michael Rubin's Fanatics Inc. ecosystem with 95M+ merchandise customers and cross-category FanCash loyalty points as differentiated moat.
Fanatics Betting & Gaming is the sports betting and online casino arm of Fanatics, Inc., the licensed sports merchandise and trading card giant founded by Michael Rubin. Fanatics entered sports betting in 2023 by acquiring the U.S. assets of PointsBet for approximately $150M, instantly gaining multi-state licenses and an operational sportsbook platform.

Its FanCash rewards program bridges physical and digital sports commerce. The company is investing heavily in technology, user experience, and promotional marketing, running at a significant near-term loss as it builds market share.\n\nFanatics Betting reached approximately 8.3% of U.S. sports betting gross gaming revenue in mid-2025, positioning itself for a podium finish behind FanDuel and DraftKings. In New York, Fanatics generated $178.8M in revenue during FY2025—essentially doubling its 2024 performance. CEO Michael Rubin has projected that sports betting could account for 40% of Fanatics' total profits by 2027.
