Its origins are in the UK where it was founded in 1934, and where it is listed on the London Stock Exchange.

In 2012, it established William Hill US with a focus on retail and mobile operations in Nevada, the largest sports betting business in the US.

It is now operating in seven states: Nevada, New Jersey, Delaware, Rhode Island, Mississippi, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. William Hill's Online business acquired Mr Green & Co AB in January 2019, growing its international operations.
