Sports bettors are now able to place wagers at IGT PlaySports sports betting kiosks at restaurants and bars in Ohio under an agreement with Green Bear Gaming Development LLC, operating as UBetOhio, according to a press release. The kiosk has a user interface with a betting menu.

The state began allowing sports betting this week.

IGT will also introduce the PlaySports Pad, a tablet-based innovation that can tether to a range of surfaces like a bar or tabletop.

"As a type C sports gaming provider, UBetOhio is able to offer betting on popular sports via IGT's sophisticated technology in social settings where fans are already watching games on TV," Joe Asher, IGT president of sports betting, said in the press release.

IGT PlaySports is deployed at more than 80 gaming venues across the U.S. and Canada.
