BonusFinder.com continues to enhance its presence across America after it was granted its fifth US affiliate licence allowing the company to operate in West Virginia.

This follows the firm gaining permission from Colorado regulators, only two weeks ago, adding to existing licenses in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Indiana.

West Virginia recently regulated online and mobile sports betting in August 2019 and currently has three operator brands live with online and mobile betting options.

Fintan Costello, managing director of BonusFinder.com, said: “We’re delighted to have been given approval in West Virginia, just two weeks after we celebrated going live in Colorado.

“We now have five licenses in total and are presenting millions of players with the optimum sports betting and gaming options before they commit to opening a new online betting account.

“Our aim is to help players ‘play with more’ within a safe and responsible environment. We are very much in favour of regulation and we are delighted to have made huge strides in five rapidly growing state markets.”

BonusFinder last month revealed that due to the closure of major US land-based gaming venues and the cancellation of live sports, there had been a 100 per cent rise in internet searches for ‘online casino’ across North America.

Carried out using Google Trends, from February to the end of March this year, the research uncovered a sharp spike in players searching for ‘online casino’.
