Sports betting is legal in Arizona since April 2021, with 13 licensed online sportsbooks. However, iGaming (online casino) remains illegal in the state.
20 event wagering licenses were allocated: 10 for tribes, 10 for professional sports teams or facilities. The Arizona Department of Gaming regulates the market.
While sports betting thrives, online casino legislation faces no immediate prospects. The success of sports betting could eventually convince lawmakers to consider casino gaming as additional revenue.
Follow sports betting developments, tribal compact negotiations, potential iGaming legislation, and regulatory enforcement against illegal operators.
