Your Guide To Online Gambling in Arizona

What Does Online Gambling In Arizona Look Like?

Ever since the idea of legalizing online gambling in Arizona was seriously brought to the table, it has always been a question of how this would eventually happen, and what will legal online gambling in Arizona look like?

Well, fast-forward to 2021 and that question has become much easier to answer.

With the stroke of a pen, Governor Doug Ducey officially gave life to Arizona’s new sports betting law in April 2021.

Over the course of the next few months, the Arizona Department of Gaming was able to finalize the rules and regulations of how online gambling would play out in Arizona.

Online Sports Betting in Arizona

The main goal of Arizona’s betting law, a fully-legal and regulated online sports betting industry, has finally been turned into a reality for residents (and visitors) of the Grand Canyon State.

Following the standard procedure of other states with legal gambling, anyone in Arizona aged 21 or older is allowed to partake in legal sports betting, both online or in-person.

Arizona bettors will enjoy the freedom to choose if they want to place real money wagers at either a land-based retail location, such as a tribal-casino or sportsbook located at their favorite sporting events, or alternatively on one of the various online betting sites currently available.

Online Casinos & Poker in Arizona

As I have mentioned, the main intent of Arizona’s betting law was to solely introduce legal sports betting, rather than legalizing online casino play as well.

Unfortunately, this means for those located in Arizona hoping for a legal online casino experience, you’ll have to wait a bit longer.

Although there are no legal online casinos in Arizona yet, this may change in the not-too-distant future given the rate at which the legal online gambling landscape is constantly changing.

For all casino needs in Arizona, there is still a large selection of tribal casinos that offer great casino gambling experiences on their own.

Arizona Online Gambling Sites - Where to Bet

Since its inception, Arizona’s legal online sports betting industry has been a fiercely competitive market to enter.

The opportunity to be one of the first legal operators in Arizona created a bit of a mad-dash of organizations trying to receive one of the 20 available licenses from the ADG.

Fortunately for bettors in Arizona, the fierce competition for the available licenses means there is already a wide variety of options available of online gambling sites and sportsbooks to place wagers with right off the bat.

Under the current law, the total number of online sportsbooks could eventually reach as high as 40 in total! For now, at least, there are 9 different online betting sites to place wagers with while within Arizona state lines. That number is expected to rapidly increase in the near future as the remaining few licenses are distributed. Take a look at what we believe to be the top 3 options currently available in Arizona!

Sports betting has never been easier, now with your favourite sportsbook at your fingertips.

By having easy access to every possible game to bet on at your fingertips, you’re sure to find the exact wager you want to place.

Not only is having your sportsbook so readily available a luxury in and of itself, but having the freedom to place your wager from anywhere (within state lines) ain't too bad either.
