New Jersey’s thriving internet gambling market continues to grow. The Ocean Resort casino was cleared for full internet gambling operations on Sunday. The state Division of Gaming Enforcement completed testing and evaluating its systems and approved it to offer online gambling.
The casino’s site, www.oceanonlinecasino.com , becomes New Jersey’s 27th legal internet gambling site. It comes nearly two weeks after Hard Rock, which opened the same day as Ocean Resort, on June 27, launched its own internet gambling site. The British gambling technology company GAN is Ocean Resort’s platform partner for internet gambling. Dermot Smurfit, GAN’s CEO, said the online casino should be worth an additional 10 percent to 15 percent of revenue for Ocean Resort, with a younger potential customer base.
