Sports Betting FAQs

Is sports betting legal in New Jersey?

Yes. New Jersey is one of the leading sports betting states in the USA. Sports betting was legalized after the Supreme Court ruled that the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) was unconstitutional. Players can wager in New Jersey through domestic sportsbooks and also through offshore sportsbooks - but only when they are out of state.

When did sports betting become legal in New Jersey?

The Supreme Court ruled PASPA as unconstitutional on May 14, 2018. On June 11, 2018, Governor Phil Murphy signed Assembly Bill 4111 that allowed legal sports betting at land-based casinos and racetracks in New Jersey, and the first bet was made three days later.

Is it legal to bet on sports online?

Yes. Assembly Bill 4111 also paved the way for casinos and racetracks to apply for online and mobile sports betting sites and online sports betting went live in July 2018. Any casino or racetrack can add an online or mobile sports betting section to their establishment as long as it is approved.

Can you bet on college sports in New Jersey?

You cannot bet on local college sports within New Jersey. Universities, schools, and other venues within the state are not an option for New Jersey residents. Bettors and fans wanting to bet on their local college teams have to bet from an out of state location, or bet on college football and other sports from outside NJ.

Can I place a bet in Vegas online?

Yes. Several of the biggest casinos in Vegas offer online sports betting as part of their services, including BetMGM. However, you must be in the state of the sportsbook - in this case NV - to use the online sportsbooks apps.
