BetMGM licensed states: sportsbook, casino and poker evidence
A 15-market BetMGM evidence guide separating sportsbook, online casino and poker permissions, local partners and source strength.

Jump to a section
The short answer
- The Atlas ledger records 15 licensed BetMGM market relationships across 14 US jurisdictions and Ontario, each with its own evidence date.
- Ohio's September licence roster supports its sportsbook relationship. New Jersey's indexed DGE directories add explicit poker evidence alongside sportsbook and casino.
- Sportsbook, casino and poker permissions are product-specific; the reviewed Ontario, Michigan, Pennsylvania and New Jersey directories support all three for BetMGM.
- The legal entity, land-based partner or market-access structure can change by jurisdiction even when the consumer brand remains BetMGM.
- The downloadable CSV preserves every market, product, authority, source type and verification date in the current Atlas dataset.

This table is an evidence ledger, not a promise of account acceptance, geolocation success or uniform product availability. Ohio’s published 8 September licence list and Michigan’s authorised-provider directory were rechecked on 25 October 2026, New Jersey's indexed DGE directories were rechecked on 25 October 2026 with direct retrieval still blocked, and Nevada's broad sportsbook relationship was reviewed on 27 September. Other source dates remain separate.
Why there is no single BetMGM US licence
Online gambling permission in the United States is primarily state-based. Each jurisdiction decides which products may operate, which company or casino partner holds the relevant permission and which public record demonstrates current activity.
Atlas currently records 15 licensed BetMGM relationships. The number is a count of documented local evidence records, not a national licence and not a count of every state in which an MGM property exists.
From question to defensible conclusion
Why there is no single BetMGM US licence
Sportsbook, casino and poker are different permissions
Where the current review supports online casino
Where the current review supports poker
Sportsbook, casino and poker are different permissions
A state may authorise mobile sports wagering while prohibiting online casino and poker. New York, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Arizona, Louisiana, Virginia, Massachusetts and Maryland appear in the current review for sportsbook evidence only; that cannot be reused to claim casino or poker availability.
The current iGaming Ontario directory separately lists BetMGM Casino, BetMGM Poker and BetMGM Sportsbook. Michigan’s regulator directory likewise identifies MGM Grand Detroit with BetMGM for internet casino games and poker plus internet sports betting, while Pennsylvania lists BetMGM in its sportsbook, interactive-gaming and poker directories. New Jersey's indexed DGE directories also list the nj.betmgm.com casino, poker and sports paths through Borgata. These product-specific records support all three categories in those four markets.
Where the current review supports online casino
Ontario, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan and West Virginia carry sportsbook and casino evidence in the current Atlas dataset. Their public records use different formats: operator directories, platform-provider pages, revenue reports or separate licence lists.
A casino listing should be matched to the exact brand and domain. A state’s general iGaming framework does not by itself prove that BetMGM is a current operating brand there.
Where the current review supports poker
Poker is the narrowest category in this review. Ontario’s directory lists a dedicated BetMGM Poker website, Michigan’s current authorised-provider page explicitly includes poker within the BetMGM relationship and Pennsylvania lists BetMGM in its separate poker directory. New Jersey's indexed DGE directory explicitly lists the poker path at nj.betmgm.com through Borgata.
Do not infer poker from a generic casino label in another state. If the authority does not name poker or publish a corresponding operating record, Atlas keeps the product out of the relationship until stronger evidence is available.
The company and market-access partner can change
Official records can name BetMGM Canada Inc., BetMGM LLC, Roar Digital LLC, MGM Grand Detroit, Borgata or another casino partner. These are not interchangeable labels: one may be the operator, another the platform provider and another the land-based licence holder.
Preserve the exact local chain. Pennsylvania’s 24 October product directories confirm BetMGM’s separate brand listings without revalidating the full legal-entity or market-access chain. Michigan identifies the MGM Grand Detroit platform relationship, and New Jersey’s authorised-domain directories associate BetMGM with Borgata.
How the 15-market evidence was assembled
Atlas distinguishes permission records from operating reports. Ohio's licence roster updated 8 September 2026 and checked on 25 October lists BetMGM LLC and Northfield Park Associates LLC as active and currently operating; it supersedes reliance on the May revenue report. Arizona's separately dated approved-operator page lists BetMGM with the Arizona Cardinals for event wagering. New Jersey's complete indexed DGE directories were retrieved on 25 October 2026; the casino copy was reported crawled two weeks earlier and the sportsbook copy that day. Direct access returned 403, so the listed-product finding is an indexed-directory check rather than a live page fetch or individual licence-term audit.
Louisiana and Virginia sportsbook evidence and Pennsylvania’s separate sportsbook, casino and poker directories were rechecked on 24 October 2026. Massachusetts and Maryland retain their 24 October sportsbook checks. Massachusetts classifies BetMGM as a Category 3 tethered licensee through MGM Springfield, illustrating why the local market-access chain belongs in the evidence record.
Nevada's broad sportsbook relationship was checked on 27 September against the Commission's latest-listed MGM registration order. Clause 26 identifies BetMGM LLC, trading as Siri's Casino, with a race book and sports pool in Reno; the current location search retains Siri's Casino as nonrestricted. This supports the sportsbook relationship, without treating the order as a separate statewide mobile permit. The operator's availability page remains supplementary evidence.

A six-step BetMGM state verification
Start with a jurisdiction and product, then build the evidence chain from the regulator outward.
- Name the state or province and exact product.
- Open the current regulator operator or activity record.
- Match BetMGM to the local entity and casino partner.
- Confirm sportsbook, casino and poker separately.
- Distinguish a licence, operating record and operator availability page.
- Record the source URL and verification date.
What the downloadable dataset contains
The CSV exports market, Atlas status, products, regulator, evidence type, official source and last-verification date for each current BetMGM relationship. This exposes both the conclusion and the strength of the evidence behind it.
The dataset is designed for comparison and audit. If a live regulator page later conflicts with the export, the regulator’s current record controls and the Atlas row enters the refresh queue.
What this guide does not claim
A licensed relationship does not guarantee that a particular person can register, deposit or use a promotion. Location, age, identity, responsible-gambling exclusions, operator rules and temporary product availability still apply.
The guide does not treat an MGM casino property as proof of online BetMGM permission. It also does not transfer a sportsbook licence to casino or poker, or one state’s evidence to another state.
Frequently asked questions about BetMGM states
Is BetMGM legal everywhere in the US? No; permissions are jurisdiction- and product-specific. Does sportsbook approval include casino? No. Where does the current review explicitly support BetMGM poker? Ontario, Michigan, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Why can the legal name differ from BetMGM? Regulators may publish the operator entity, platform provider or land-based partner. Atlas retains that local structure and reviews the evidence every 30 days.
