FanDuel’s website is best in class because of its simplicity. Game day is not the time to navigate through a complicated site to play the game you love. Users are able to easily log on, identify contests available, add and alter multiple lineups, track live scoring, and withdraw and deposit funds. Users can also easily follow live scores. Over the past year, we have focused on a new initiative to make the FanDuel platform the ultimate content destination for fantasy players and sports fans. With a team of leading sports reporters with decades of experience, FanDuel expanded its editorial content production with the re-launch of FanDuel Insider. There, users can access the latest fantasy news and tips from our team of experts including lineup changes, potential impact performers, players to avoid, general updates from around the leagues.   FanDuel is changing the way we consumer sports and the FanDuel website has become a one-stop shop to enhance the entire sports experience.
