The electronic gaming and sports betting outfit, which is jointly owned by Entain and MGM Resorts, also claimed to be the market leader in iGaming, putting its share of the market over the three months to February at 23%.
It also said it was on course to take the number two spot in US sports betting and so-called iGaming overall.
BetMGM guided towards $1bn of net revenues from operations in 2022 and said its two main shareholders were expected to invest roughly $450m in 2021.
