Several states across the US have begun to offer sports
betting online. These states will vary in their requirements and restrictions.
Some states have requirements that include in-person registration at retail
sportsbooks. Others have no such requirements.
New Jersey was one of the first states to legalize sports
betting. After the Supreme Court decision in May 2011, the legislature passed a
bill that offered legal sports betting to residents. The governor signed the
bill into law and later approved the creation of a legal sports betting
industry in the state. However, New Jersey still has restrictions on in-state
wagering and betting on weather.
New York has also recently approved online sports 777powernet. Governor Cuomo added the bill to the state's budget. The state was one
of the first to launch legal online sports betting. The first online operators
to be introduced were DraftKings and BetRivers. When the state launched its
online market in September, they were joined by FanDuel. In October, DraftKings
will begin operating in Connecticut.
Massachusetts was another state that passed legislation
allowing online sports betting. After the state approved the bill, the
legislature struck a last-minute deal to introduce legal sports betting to the
commonwealth in 2022. When the new market launches, the Gaming Division of the
Department of Consumer Protection will oversee the new industry.
Wyoming also recently approved online sports betting. The
state launched its first sportsbook app in September and later launched its
online only market. In the beginning, Wyoming expects at least five apps.
Wyoming also became the first state to offer mobile sports betting. When mobile
users sign up, they can register on sportsbook apps from anywhere in the state.
New Hampshire passed the bill that allowed sports betting
in December. Several live operators are already operating in the state. These
operators include PointsBet and DraftKings. The state will also allow for
retail betting when the first casinos are built.
Iowa approved online sports betting in August. Several
live operators are already operating in Iowa. The state will also allow for
retail betting as a result of a new gaming compact with the state's tribes.
Tennessee chose to offer online sports betting because
the state does not have land-based sports betting options. However, the state
does not have any casinos, so there are no options for land-based betting. In
the beginning, users will be required to register at a retail sportsbook.
However, the state has plans to build five casinos. In the future, retail
betting will be available online when casinos are built.
