DraftKings says it will have its app listed and available on Google Play immediately after the rule change is implemented.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
Gambling apps will be allowed in the Google Play store in the United States for the first time, according to a change in Google’s Developer Program Policy.
According to Google’s policy center, “We allow real-money gambling apps, ads related to real-money gambling, and daily fantasy sports apps that meet certain requirements,” effective March 1. Terms for developers to apply for inclusion in the US can be found in the policy update.
The change applies to US online casino apps, online lotteries, and sportsbook apps. Google has previously made the decision to allow gambling apps in certain other countries, such as the United Kingdom.
DraftKings confirmed the change to Online Poker Report in a statement:
“As sports betting and iGaming continues to expand across the United States, we are excited that DraftKings Sportsbook and Casino apps will soon be available to download for Android users via Google Play.”
The news was first reported by Reuters.

A boon to online gambling operators
It’s a major change that should help online gambling operators across the spectrum in the US. At the moment, Android users can only obtain online casino, sportsbook, and poker apps via direct download from the operator’s website. This also requires changing the security settings on the device, which can seem scary to some users.
That less-than-streamlined process likely means gambling operators don’t fully realize their addressable audience of Android users. Getting their apps onto the Play store will change that situation for the better.
Gambling apps are already available on the App Store for Apple devices in the US.
