ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) — Boyd Interactive has purchased Resorts Digital, the online gambling arm of Atlantic City's Resorts casino, for an undisclosed amount.
Mark Giannantonio, president of Resorts, said Monday that the transaction was finalized on Sept. 1. Neither company would reveal the purchase price.
Resorts Digital has outperformed the physical Resorts casino for years; it has taken in five times the amount of money from gamblers over the first eight months of this year as the physical casino did.
Over that period, Resorts Digital won over $573 million, compared to $109 million for the physical Resorts casino, according to the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement.
