Current licence split
MGC lists Encore Boston Harbor, MGM Springfield and Plainridge Park Casino as Category 1 sports-wagering licensees, plus four tethered and three untethered Category 3 online operators. Betr and WynnBet remain historical, non-renewed licensees.
MGC sports-wagering licenseesDo not mix licence categories
Plainridge Park is a Category 2 slots facility for casino regulation but a Category 1 sports-wagering operator. The category on an MGC casino record should not be copied into the sports-wagering licence field.
MGC July 2026 casino and sports-wagering revenue releaseLatest official market result
The ten licensed operators generated approximately $65.56 million in taxable sports-wagering revenue in July 2026. MGC reports that Massachusetts had collected about $490.96 million in sports-wagering taxes and assessments since launch.
MGC July 2026 sports-wagering resultsEvent and wager limits
An operator licence does not make every market available. MGC points users to its wagering catalog, bars most wagers on Massachusetts college teams outside tournaments and prohibits specified Russian, Belarusian and judged-event markets.
MGC approved events and wagersProspective interest is not a licence
MGC reopened its licensing process in April 2026 and requested notices of intent, but expressly says a notice of intent is not a licence application. Atlas does not add prospective entities to the current directory.
