New York became the first online gaming market to launch in 2022 and is also expected to become the largest online sports betting market in the United States.

Trustly, the global leader in online banking payments, and SensePass, a digital payment network connecting digital wallets and alternative forms of payment to brick-and-mortar point-of-sale (POS) systems for seamless payments, have partnered to provide consumers with an online banking payment option at the POS.

In the rapidly changing and evolving world of fintech and payments, predictions can become realities overnight. Before we ring in the New Year, let’s explore some of the growing trends and what to expect in 2022 for this exciting sector.

Trustly, Inc. (previously known as PayWithMybank) has worked with its entire cloud operation to run more than 20 microservices since 2015 that are responsible for connecting its users with more than 1,000 banks globally. Although Trustly had a mature and stable infrastructure, the journey began in 2018 to modernize the application architecture to use containers in Kubernetes.

The expansion of sports betting in the United States has yet to slow down since the May 2018 U.S. Supreme Court decision which struck down the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA), a federal law that prohibited sports betting. As of this writing, 33 states (including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico) have some form of legal sports betting, with 22 of those states offering online wagering.
