FAQs
Is mobile sports betting legal in Missouri?
Mobile sports betting is not yet legal statewide. A measure to legalize it will be on the November 2024 ballot for voter approval. Currently, online betting is only available through platforms affiliated with licensed casinos.
Who is eligible for these sportsbook promotions?
These promotions are typically available to new users who are at least 21 years old and physically located within Missouri. Users must create an account and meet the specific offer’s requirements, such as a minimum deposit or first bet.
What is a “bonus bet” or “no-sweat bet”?
