The New Jersey Devils announced a multiyear partnership with Betway on Friday, making the global online sports betting brand owned by Super Group an official partner of the team.
Through the deal, Betway will receive brand exposure and TV-visible signage throughout Prudential Center for Devils home games, including dasherboard, Zamboni tunnel and in-bowl staircase branding, as well as in-bowl LED ring and scoreboard advertising.
Betway also will become the presenting partner of the “Devils Starting Lineup, presented by Betway,” a social post series supported and promoted across all New Jersey Devils social media platforms.
Betway CEO Anthony Werkman said the partnership will help the company expand its efforts to connect and engage with the Devils fanbase, the New Jersey market and global NHL fans.
“We’re very excited to be adding the New Jersey Devils to our existing North American sports sponsorship portfolio,” he said. “Our partnership with the Devils will give us great exposure via the extensive list of marketing rights, which will enable us to showcase our products to customers in New Jersey.”
Sports betting in New Jersey continues to be hot.
