Flutter Entertainment Criticizes Illinois Transaction Fee, Warns of Impact on Customers and Market Growth

Flutter Entertainment plc, the leading online sports betting and iGaming operator, has expressed disappointment over the Illinois State legislature's decision to introduce a betting transaction fee for all sports wagers placed in the state, effective July 1, 2025. Peter Jackson, CEO of Flutter, criticized the fee, stating that it would disproportionately affect lower wagering recreational customers and potentially drive some bettors to unregulated operators. In response, FanDuel, Flutter's US market-leading brand, will implement a $0.50 transaction fee on bets placed in Illinois starting September 1, 2025. Flutter emphasized that should Illinois reverse its decision, FanDuel will promptly remove the additional fee.
