Sports betting is now legal in Arizona, with both online and in-person betting permitted. Just in time for the NFL season, the Arizona Department of Gaming approved the introduction of online sports betting apps in 2021. You may now gamble using your smartphone, iPad, or computer. In-person wagering is also available at retail sportsbooks in Arizona casinos and sports venues.
On April 15, 2021, sports betting became legal in Arizona. Governor Doug Ducey signed legislation that allows the state’s professional sports teams and federally recognized tribes to compete for a total of 20 online and retail licenses. DraftKings, BetMGM, Caesars, BetRivers, FanDuel, Unibet, WynnBet, Twinspires, and Barstool Sports are the nine live Arizona sports betting apps as of November 2021.
Several more online betting sites may still launch in AZ, but these are the available online sportsbooks for now. Those who are at least twenty-one years old can take their pick or even sign up to as many as they like. Provided they’re within the state borders at the time of betting, they can use these sites to bet on a variety of different sports.
Here are some of the best sportsbooks now live in the state of Arizona:
BetMGM
BetMGM has a well-designed mobile app with attractive odds across a variety of sports, including the NBA and NFL. In addition, via the BetMGM Sportsbook app, bettors can enjoy the special M Live rewards program. This rewards scheme gives out points for wagers, which can later be exchanged for prizes. There’s also an excellent welcome offer for all new sign-ups. When you first join the site, you’ll be able to claim a risk-free bet worth up to $1000 using the BetMGM Arizona bonus code to help you get started and hopefully have a profitable experience.
DraftKings
DraftKings has attractive bonuses, odds, and special odds boosts to make things more interesting. It offers a great app for mobile sports bettors as well as DFS players, and it’s really easy to use on mobiles or on desktop computers. In Arizona, both options are now up and running, meaning AZ bettors can sign up and start betting. Scottsdale will also have a DraftKings Sportsbook retail location in the coming months. The DraftKings online sportsbook provides a $50 free bet to all new users as well as matches the first deposit up to a maximum of $1000.
