Barstool will be back online soon
As mentioned, Barstool anticipates the app will only be offline for up to 72 hours. In addition, the company said user balances will be 100% secured throughout the upgrade process.
Users will not have to redownload the app or update or change their account information. For those who have bet’s in the process, Barstool said pending wagers will automatically carry over once the new app goes live.
Barstool was among the first sportsbooks to go live in its home state of Massachusetts. Although it was separate from the initial launch in January, MA online sports betting launched on March 10 with six online operators.
In March, online operators generated over $563 million in handle, with DraftKings accounting for $264.3 million of that total. Unfortunately for Barstool and parent company Penn Entertainment, it saw less than 6% of betting action for the month.
