Strict US gambling laws meant that Google advertising has been unfamiliar territory for betting operators in that market. Google has only been allowed to advertise services such as DraftKings’ Sportsbook betting since July 2019. New Jersey was the first state to open its doors to these advertisers, followed more recently by West Virginia, and it is expected that more states will follow in the next few months.

Since the end of August 2019, Google has made Daily Fantasy Sports advertising available in 19 states. As a verified Google Marketing Platform Partner, NMPi has been tasked with targeting new customers via a range of digital channels to coincide with the NFL season.
