WI Online Sports Betting Legalization Updates September 2024
![Wisconsin](https://assets.actionnetwork.com/23604_Wisconsin.png)
Legal sports betting exists in Wisconsin –– but it's very limited. Currently, bettors can only bet on sports at nine locations within the state, and your first deposit must be made at a retail location. The state of Wisconsin has allowed the Potawatomi to offer wagering on sports and other events. This has not been implemented yet but will be in the near future.
With no legal sports betting in sight, it is important to note that Daily Fantasy is legal in the state. PrizePicks is a daily fantasy sports app that you can use in Wisconsin. First-time users are eligible for the following offer: Place a $5 Lineup, Get $50 Instantly - No Strings Attached! Be sure to sign up with promo code ACTION and make your picks!
There are also a few other DFS platforms available, including Fliff, Betr Fantasy, Sleeper, Dabble, Owners Box, and more!
WI Sports Betting Overview, Timeline and Background
You can currently bet on sports in Wisconsin, but the laws are rather restrictive. There is one operating app, and you must be located in one of the nine designated locations in order to place your bets. On top of this, players must make their first deposit and a retail location. Wisconsin natives and visitors hope that the laws surrounding mobile sports betting loosen up soon. The Potawatomi Tribe will soon be able to offer sports betting as well. Be sure to check back for the latest news on mobile sports betting in Wisconsin.
Wisconsin has a long way to go before mobile sports betting is legalized but — at the very least — Wisconsinites will be able to bet on sports at casinos in the major population centers for the foreseeable future.
There is another way you can put your sports knowledge to the test.
PrizePicks is an app where you can choose if a player will go over or under certain stats for the duration of a given game.

Wisconsin Sports Betting Grading Card
Legalized mobile sports betting in Wisconsin has a long way to go. While there are ways to bet on sports, there are a lot of hoops to jump through in order to get your bets placed. We hope that the restrictions loosen as sports betting becomes legal in more states.
Sports betting bill analysis TBD.

Sports Betting Mistakes to Avoid
Betting on your favorite teams like the Green Bay Packers might seem like a no-brainer, but you need to be responsible if you're going to sustain in the sports betting world.
Here are sports betting mistakes to avoid.
First Wisconsin Sportsbook Targeting November Opening
Wisconsin’s first legal sportsbook is targeting a November opening. The Federal Department of the Interior has approved an updated compact struck between the Oneida Nation and Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers that allows the tribe to open sportsbooks at its gaming facilities, including its main casino near Green Bay Austin Straubel International Airport.
Oneida Nation casino (Main Airport location)
Oneida Nation has over four casinos located all over Wisconsin — but only one offers legal sports betting. The Oneida Nation casino is located right near the Green Bay Austin Straubel International Airport. It offers a legal sportsbook, over 1,100 slot machines, table games and poker.

You must be 21 years of age or older to bet in Wisconsin. It is also required that you make your first deposit at retail gaming location, and you must be located at certain locations in order to place your bets.
Yes, but only at the Oneida Nation casino in Green Bay and various locations listed above.
There is currently legal online sports betting in Wisconsin, however it is subject to a lot of restrictions. These restrictions include an in-person deposit requirement, and a lack of availability in terms of where you can place your bets.
MyBookie and Bovada are not legal. Legal online sportsbooks protect consumers, avoiding the heightened potential for credit card or other fraud that may be a greater risk at offshore books.
As of now, there is no estimate. There are no bills that cover mobile sports betting currently passing through Wisconsin government.
