New Alberta rollout
BetMGM and Marriott Bonvoy are extending their rewards partnership to Alberta. Players in the province can now link their BetMGM and Marriott Bonvoy accounts to convert BetMGM Rewards into Marriott Bonvoy points. This is possible as Alberta’s regulated online gambling market becomes fully operational.
The rewards collaboration, which started in the United States in 2024, now gives Albertan gamblers access to a flexible loyalty program. Adam Greenblatt, CEO of BetMGM, emphasized that the expansion allows local players to enjoy one of the most rewarding loyalty experiences available in their industry. He described it as a way to deliver unique value that players won’t find elsewhere.
How to join the program
Albertan customers can connect their BetMGM and Marriott Bonvoy accounts through the BetMGM mobile app, the company’s website, or the Rewards Store. Once logged in, users can navigate to the 'My Rewards' section of their account profile to begin the linking process. BetMGM already operates in 31 markets, offering both mobile and retail options.
The BetMGM Sportsbook app is available for iOS and Android users and can also be accessed via desktop at www.betmgm.com. The process of linking accounts is designed to be straightforward and user-friendly for customers. This accessibility ensures that Albertans can easily join the program and begin earning and redeeming points.
Responsible gambling efforts
As BetMGM continues to expand into new markets and roll out features, responsible gambling remains a priority for the company. BetMGM offers GameSense, a program developed by the British Columbia Lottery Corporation, to assist customers in managing their gambling activity. GameSense includes features like setting deposit limits and taking breaks from gaming.
The GameSense system is fully integrated into BetMGM’s mobile and desktop platforms, providing an experience consistent with what users encounter at MGM Resorts. This is part of a broader set of responsible gambling tools that BetMGM uses to support customers and maintain a safe and enjoyable digital environment. People in Alberta who are concerned about how gambling is affecting their mental health or well-being can reach out for help by calling or texting 211. Information is also available online at ab.211.ca.
