BetMGM States: A look ahead

Is BetMGM legal in California?

Right now, no. California hasn't approved legal sports betting.

However, it's almost impossible to imagine that sports betting won't be legalized in the Golden State in the coming future given the rampant rise in the popularity of sports betting in the US.

The 2022 legislative session in CA will be crucial in how the state moves forward with plans for legal sports betting but given BetMGM’s success and countrywide appeal, one can expect BetMGM to feature heavily in any bidding process for a CA online sports betting license.

Is BetMGM legal in Texas?

No, at this moment legal sports betting in Texas doesn't exist.

But 2022 is shaping up to be a big year for many states considering sports betting bills and few come any bigger than Texas. Like CA, it’s thought should one of the proposals come to pass, late 2022 or early 2023 could be a potential timeframe for what will become one of the most lucrative sports betting markets in the US.

Given the lack of commercial casinos in Texas, any TX market is likely to be based solely online and will most likely include BetMGM.

About BetMGM

BetMGM

Up to $1,500 in Bonus Bets if Your First Bet Doesn't Win

BetMGM is MGM Resorts International's online sports betting division. MGM, which was created in 1986, owns casino and hotel resort properties around the United States.

Under the PlayMGM brand, the business entered the internet gaming industry in 2017 with an online sportsbook in Nevada and an online casino in New Jersey.

However, as MGM began to provide online sports betting in numerous states in 2018, the online side of the company was renamed 'BetMGM.'

BetMGM now operates in over 20 states (plus D.C. and Puerto Rico) making it one of the most widely available legal online gambling sites in the US.
