Monmouth Park launches sports betting app

A Monmouth Park sports wagering app is now available for download under the name "William Hill New Jersey." The app is available to both iPhone and Android users.

To become a Monmouth sports betting customer, new users must sign up and use the promo code MP50. This does two things. It ensures that Monmouth Park will benefit from that user's wagers going forward, and earns the user a $50 bonus after the first $50 wagered through the service.

According to a press release issued by Monmouth, "revenue generated from customers who wager with the MP50 code will go toward the operation and sustainability of Thoroughbred racing at Monmouth Park."

The Monmouth sports app has the same rules as the 4NJBets Thoroughbred wagering site. Users must be at least 21 years old and the app can only be used while the customer is within the physical boundaries of New Jersey.

"We're pleased to allow our Monmouth Park Sports Book by William Hill customers the convenience to wager anywhere in New Jersey," said Dennis Drazin, chairman and CEO of Darby Development, which operates Monmouth. "The MP50 code will ensure revenues are funneled directly back locally to Monmouth Park Racetrack."
