CashBet closes $1.7 million funding round for online gambling platform

Real-money gambling company CashBet has announced the closure of a $1.7 million Angel Round of funding for its platform, which brings real-money online gambling to social and mobile games. The round was led by Fred Hsu and other private investors, and CashBet is currently preparing to seek additional investments from larger investment partners.

CashBet’s platform is in private beta, with SDKs available to iOS and HTML5 developers.
