MGM Resorts is best known for its world class hotels and casinos but how does its online sportsbook, BetMGM, stack up?

The US gambling giants know a thing or two when it comes to retail gambling but can the same be said of the company’s online gambling products?

Our BetMGM review will shed light on the questions posed as we give you our honest take of BetMGM sportsbook and casino and how it compares with the competition.

New customers at BetMGM can collect a first bet offer up to $1000 when they join.

To become eligible for the BetMGM welcome bonus, all you need to do is sign-up, make a deposit and place your first wager.

If your bet loses, BetMGM will pay you back the amount wagered in bonus bets (up to $1000).

Among the collection of promotions BetMGM had running at the time of this review included offers for golf, soccer and baseball.

Offers are usually rolled out prior to the start of major events so remember to always check out the latest BetMGM offers on the BetMGM website or app.

Here are some examples of the type of promos BetMGM has running:

Hit the Cycle Challenge (MLB)

• 1st base: Get a parlay boost token when you place a $10 money line bet on any MLB game
• 2nd base: Bonus token when you place a $10+ wager of 3+ legs on any MLB game
• 3rd base: $5 bonus bet when you pace a $10 parlay wager of 3+ legs on any MLB game
• 4th base: $10 bonus bet when you place a $10+ live wager

One game Parlay Insurance (Soccer, NBA)

You may be super confident your parlay is going to land. But, as we’ve all come to learn, there’s always one that lets you down.

On the possibility that one leg of your parlay loses, BetMGM will return your stake up to $25, which softens the blow somewhat!

Money Monday Club

In a show of loyalty to existing customers, BetMGM will give you a $10 bonus bet when your bets from the previous week total $50. You need to opt-in and make qualifying bets to qualify for this offer.

Much like FanDuel and DraftKings, BetMGM has entered multiple states in quick succession and, from there, built a healthy following thanks to, in part, strong brand recognition.

And as an all-in-one gaming website, BetMGM is legal in each state with varying online gambling verticals.

Here’s a full list of where BetMGM is legal in the US and what’s offered.

Markets you can wager on include traditional lines such as money lines, points spreads and totals, in addition to futures, props and parlays.

Each sport is well stacked with different bets. The major and minor US leagues are well covered and provide good variety, likewise niche sports.

Live betting, which allows you to bet during a game, is fast becoming the new way to bet on sports. As such, sportsbooks are fine-tuning their live betting package all of the time.

To place a live bet at BetMGM, select ‘Live’ along the menu of the desktop website or mobile app where you will find a list of events you can bet on in-play.

Within the Live Betting section, the most popular live betting events are listed under the ‘Highlights’ tab. There you’ll find a broad number of sports and competitions from across the world. Live bets at BetMGM are also categorized by sport.

The ‘Event View’ tab provides the user with a live representation of what’s happening through an image and a list of key stats.

Innovative new features enhance online betting experience for bettors and also enable sportsbook operators to separate themselves from the competition.

BetMGM has various betting features to guarantee everyone is happy.

The ‘Live Streaming’ tab lists the games you can watch live and wager on simultaneously from the website or app.

Sports you can stream at BetMGM include tennis, soccer, baseball and table tennis and as long as your account is in credit, you just need to log in to view the action.

Games available to live stream are indicated by a ‘play’ icon, or, you can go to the media player and view the list of events from the dropdown list.

Cash Out, a tool that allows customers to get payouts at any time based on the current odds, gives the bettor back an element of control.

For instance, if the team you’ve bet on is winning but you’re not sure they can hold on to the advantage, you can choose to end the bet early and take your winnings. Equally, you can cash out to cut your losses if your bet is doomed from the very start.

Cash out at BetMGM is available for selected single and parlay bets. You can see if your wager offers cash out by going to ‘My Bets’. If cash out is possible, you will be shown with the cash out value at the bottom of your wager.

BetMGM is also great in terms of offering bettors flexibility. ‘Edit My Bet’ enables you to modify a wager, even once an event has started.

If you want to add/remove a selection, swap a selection and even increase your stake you can do so.

The feature is available for selected straight or parlays bets with cash out available.
