FanDuel Sports Networks Launch on Amazon Prime Video

FanDuel Sports Networks have officially launched as an add-on subscription through Amazon Prime Video, priced at $19.99 per month, giving fans access to local broadcasts of 30 NBA, NHL, and MLB teams. This new offering allows subscribers to enjoy live sports without a traditional cable subscription, enhancing options for cord cutters. Eric Ratchman, president of Main Street Sports Group, highlighted the partnership with Prime Video as a way to innovate fan access to local teams. The launch follows FanDuel's emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy, during which it secured a deal with Amazon for a $115 million investment and restructured its operations. Fans can easily subscribe via the Prime Video app, although existing FanDuel subscribers must cancel their accounts to switch to the Prime service. This expansion aligns with Prime Video's growing portfolio of sports offerings, including NBA games and other major sports events.
