In November 2017, Valley Forge paid $1 million to the state so guests no longer have to pay a $10 resort fee to enter.

Boyd Gaming Corporation acquired Valley Forge Casino in December 2017. The Las Vegas, Nevada-based gaming company finalized the $280.5 million deal in September 2017, then added 250 new slot machines.

In January 2020, Valley Forge Casino reported $21.6 million in revenue. The reason for the eye-popping 92% YoY increase? About 40% came from sports betting.

Then the coronavirus pandemic happened, and Valley Forge was the first casino to close its doors in the spring.

With recovery underway, Boyd’s stock price (BYD) has rebounded strongly. After dropping under $8 in mid-March, $BYD hit a high of around $50 just a week ago.

Although Valley Forge might be small in size, it has a mighty partner — FanDuel, the DFS giant turned sports betting behemoth.

FanDuel rules PA

Since August 2019, FanDuel has taken the most bets of any sportsbook operator in Pennsylvania each month.

During the 2019-20fiscal year, FanDuel online sportsbook accounted for 49% of all online wagers placed in PA. In total during fiscal year 2019-20, the PA sports betting app took $968.7 million in bets and made $39.4 million in revenue.

When FanDuel launched in PA in late June 2019, it was the fourth online sportsbook. Now, there are 13. DraftKings has held a firm grip on the No. 2 spot since arriving in the fall of 2019. Last week, the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board released monthly figures for December 2020. FanDuel again was the leader for handle, but newcomer Barstool online sportsbook posted the highest revenue ($14 million) with an almost unheard-of 20% hold.

Despite increased competition, six months into the 2020-21 fiscal year, FanDuel has nearly reached its total handle and already surpassed its total revenue from last year. After six months, it has taken $946.8 million in bets and posted $49.5 million in revenue.

FanDuel’s retail sportsbook is right near the main entrance at Valley Forge Casino. It opened in March 2019, and at 1,800 square feet, it’s a small sportsbook with a big name. Even with being closed for three weeks in December, FanDuel’s retail sportsbook has generated $2 million in revenue this fiscal year. It’s already exceeded 2019-20 FY revenue ($1.4 million).

On partnership with FanDuel: “You can’t put a number on it”

In an interview with PlayPennsylvania, Valley Forge Casino General Manager David Zerfing talked about the casino’s partnership with FanDuel, recovery after a disruptive 2020 and how the casino plans to stay competitive.

PlayPA: It’s a cliche, but it’s also very true: Valley Forge’s Casino’s partnership with FanDuel has been a home run.

Zerfing: Absolutely. FanDuel has retail books throughout the world and is a huge retail operator. They are the No. 1 sports operator both online and retail. At the corporate level, Boyd realized … long before sports betting started in Pennsylvania that they needed a partner for retail and online. They went out and got the thousand-pound gorilla, and it has benefited the company.

PlayPA: With online casinos and sportsbooks launching in Pennsylvania, how important is it to Valley Forge to have a partner like FanDuel, especially after a year like 2020 when the brick-and-mortar casino was closed for about a third of the year?

Zerfing: It is the most important thing. If we tried to go out and do it with our own name, we would never have been able to. Boyd’s name is huge, but FanDuel’s expertise in this area is unprecedented. Being able to use them and their expertise in terms of marketing and new sign-ups — they understand how to grow the market, [and] you can’t put a number on how important that is.

Casino recovery during and after a pandemic

PlayPA: Valley Forge was the first casino to close in Pennsylvania in March 2020. How would you describe 2020 at the property?

Zerfing: For everything we went through, we were successful. Our focus since we have reopened has been entirely different than before. It’s about the safety of our team members and our guests. A lot of things you would normally do to drive business, you don’t even think of it because it’s all about safety. It’s a different way of operating, and I think we are all looking forward to the day we are not operating like that.

PlayPA: In 2021, for Valley Forge and all casinos, what are the keys to recovery?

Zerfing: Recovery starts to happen when restrictions start getting lifted and people feel safe. I think there is definitely a group of individuals who aren’t frequenting casinos or restaurants, especially the elderly, who have not taken part in any activity due to COVID, and there is a pent-up demand. The people who have been coming and adhering to the rules, they will be able to have more fun and come more often. Not just us, but for the whole hospitality industry, there’s a demand from people who haven’t been able to partake like they used to and want to.

New competition with Live! Casino Philadelphia

The first new full-size casino in 10 years is in its soft opening stage, with a grand opening planned on Feb. 11. The $700 million Live! Casino Philadelphia brings added competition. Valley Forge Casino was the only casino in the northeast region of Pennsylvania with a hotel. However, it no longer holds that distinction, since Live! Casino has a 208-room, 12-story hotel.

PlayPA: How does Valley Forge Casino plan to compete with Live!?

Zerfing: In the short term, under these conditions, we compete by making people safe when they visit. The customers who visit come because they feel safe, recognize the protocols we put in place and see cleaning happening.

We all have slots and tables. But you can’t compete with the service and the culture we provide our guests. In the long term, we compete with our location, customer service and culture. Many of our customers are repeat customers. They come here because we make them feel at home. They love our level of service and team members. No one can compete against that.

Valley Forge Casino reward program

FanDuel Sportsbook app

Thanks to the company’s history with daily fantasy sports, FanDuel and Flutter have plenty of mobile gaming experience, which is evident in their new sportsbook app available for both iOS (iPhones and iPads) and Android.

The first thing players will notice – and appreciate – is how closely the mobile pages mirror those on the desktop site. The homepage comes with easy-to-use shortcuts that take the user to their sport of choice – NFL, college football, baseball, etc.

There are also three tabs linked to three tables of games – Popular, Live, and Upcoming – so whether a player is looking to bet with the masses, see what’s happening at the moment, or look ahead to a future event, it’s all easy to find.

FanDuel’s mobile sportsbook also allows users to register directly through the app.

Registration eligibility at FanDuel Sportsbook

FanDuel Sportsbook has similar eligibility requirements in all the states where it operates. Technically, anyone over the age of 21 may register for an account. However, you must be physically located in the respective state in order to be able to wager.

Fanduel Sportsbook Illinois

The online sportsbook will use geolocation to determine your exact location when trying to access FanDuel. Bettors using their mobile devices must turn on location services, while those using the desktop version have to download a location detection plug-in.

So in order to legally bet at the FanDuel NJ sportsbook, for example, you must be at least 21 years old and within the Garden State while gambling. The same rule holds true for MI, PA, IN, WV, CO, TN, IA, IL and VA FanDuel customers. Bettors must be of age and physically within the relevant state’s borders while making a wager.

There are some restrictions on who is allowed to gamble, too. Certain individuals who have jobs that could potentially influence the result of a sporting event are prohibited from placing sports bets. This includes people like players, coaches, referees, and trainers.

Casino key employees, as well as casino employees banned from wagering in any casino or simulcasting facility, also may not use FanDuel Sportsbook.

New registrants to the Iowa sportsbook must for the time being complete their registration in-person at the Diamond Jo Casino. This requirement is expected to change in 2021.

Where is FanDuel Legal?

Similar to DraftKings, FanDuel is another operator that’s expanded outside of daily fantasy and is now a leader in legal sports betting.

The online sportsbook has grown significantly, launching in many states around the country. Currently, the sports betting app is offered in Michigan, New Jersey, Indiana, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Colorado, Tennessee, Illinois,Virginiaand Iowa.

Other states are sure to follow.

FanDuel Sportsbook loyalty program

FanDuel Sportsbook does not have a rewards program in place for its sportsbook at this time. Currently, FanDuel customers can only acquire FanDuel Players Club points by participating in daily fantasy games.

FanDuel is looking into expanding its loyalty program to include the sportsbook in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Tennessee, Virginia, Michigan and Colorado. At this time, however, bettors will not earn any rewards points for placing wagers at FanDuel Sportsbook.

Any changes to this will be updated moving forward.

FanDuel Promotions

The current promotions running at the FanDuel MI, PA, NJ, IN, WV, IL, IA, TN, VA and CO sportsbooks are the same. It’s quite possible that these will differ moving forward. A lot of online sportsbooks provide promos and odds boosts based on the professional and college teams in their specific region.

For example, during football season FanDuel in NJ could offer enhanced odds for teams like the New York Giants and Jets, while the Fanduel PA sportsbook might be geared more toward the Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers. FanDuel CO might offer deals for the Denver Broncos, and FanDuel IN could boost odds for Colts games. FanDuel WV will probably offer some boosts for Mountaineers games, FanDuel IL will likely put its boost behind the Chicago Bears, and Iowa will likely cheer on the Iowa Hawkeyes.

Not all promotions are that specific. Here are some promotions that FanDuel runs:

• Multi-Sport Parlay Insurance
• Daily Odds Boost
• $1,000 Risk Free Bet

We already discussed the up to $1,000 risk-free bet, which is valid for one use when first joining FanDuel. The online sportsbook will refund your account up to $1,000 in site credit if you lose your first wager.

Multi-Sport Parlay Insurance gives money back to bettors as well. If you create a parlay with four or more legs in any sport and it loses by just one, you’re eligible to receive up to $25 back into your account.

Daily Odds Boosts will vary every day. They typically include local teams or major sporting events taking place. Some will be a three-team parlay, while others could involve a player prop. No matter what games are listed, Odds Boosts provide customers improved odds on the lines specifically offered.

FanDuel Sportsbook gives its players a variety of ways to deposit and withdraw funds for convenience. The options are the same in all five of FanDuel’s states.

There are various deposit methods available at FanDuel, including the tried-and-true credit card. However, the company issues a warning on their website stating that some credit card companies treat deposits with online gaming companies as a cash advance and may impose additional fees.

• ACH (eCheck)
• PayNearMe (available at 7-Eleven, Family Dollar, and CVS stores)

Withdrawal methods include:

• ACH (eCheck)

The Growth of FanDuel Sportsbook

Since that time, FanDuel has been continuously growing its sports betting brand. Its online sportsbook launched in the Garden State on Sept. 2018.

In March 2019, FanDuel moved into PA and built another land-based sportsbook at Valley Forge Casino Resort.
