[{"type":"text","content":" CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nGambling.com Group Limited (Nasdaq: GAMB) (“Gambling.com Group” or the “Group”), a leading provider of player acquisition services for the regulated global online gambling industry, today announced it is ready to provide marketing services to licensed online sports betting operators in the state of Ohio as soon as legal online sports betting goes live on Sunday, January 1st, 2023.\n\nIn anticipation of the launch of the legal online sports betting market in Ohio, the Group launched BetOhio.com in January 2022 to help sports bettors find trusted, comprehensive and up-to-date information on sports betting in the state.
