Originally launched as ESPN BET in November 2023 through a partnership between ESPN and Penn Entertainment (NASDAQ: PENN), the platform rebranded to theScore Bet in December 2025 following Penn's strategic shift. Penn Entertainment had acquired theScore in 2021 for $2 billion, gaining both a leading sports media app and the technology to power its own sportsbook.
theScore Bet operates in 18+ states and offers a full-featured sportsbook with competitive odds, same-game parlays, and live betting. The platform benefits from deep integration with theScore's popular sports media app. Penn Entertainment also owns and operates 43 casino properties across North America.
Editor's Verdict
theScore Bet combines the country's most-used sports media app with a full legal sportsbook — the natural home for fans who already use theScore for scores, news, and stats.
