Who is behind it
Wheel of Fortune Casino uses a licensed name. Our data says IGT and Sony licence the brand. Trade press reports that BetMGM, LLC runs the site. BetMGM is owned equally by MGM Resorts International and Entain plc, and it operates this brand on the Borgata company's New Jersey permit rather than its own licence.
Wheel of Fortune Casino also has a separate Ontario site.
Licence and what it means for you
The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement (DGE) lists the Borgata company as the permit holder. A US state licence covers players inside that state only. Each licensing state runs its own self-exclusion list. The link from the brand to BetMGM comes from trade press, so we rate it "reported", not verified.
