URGENT UPDATE: Missouri sports betting is officially live as BetMGM begins accepting bets today, marking a significant milestone for sports enthusiasts in the state. After years of legislative hurdles, residents can now experience betting at “The King of Sportsbooks,” with enticing offers like a $1,500 first-bet bonus using the BetMGM bonus code MOLOCAL.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: BetMGM is now operational, and users can unlock a substantial bonus by placing their first wager. If your initial bet does not win, you will receive up to $1,500 back in bonus bets, issued in 20% increments if your bet is at least $50. Those betting under $50 will receive a single bonus bet token. The bonus will be credited within 72 hours after the losing bet is settled and must be used within a week.
GET STARTED IMMEDIATELY: To take advantage of this offer, simply click any link or “Get Bonus” button on the BetMGM site. The bonus code MOLOCAL will automatically apply. Users must verify they are at least 21 years old and located in Missouri before placing their bets.
FEATURE HIGHLIGHT: One of BetMGM’s standout features is the ‘Edit My Bet’ option, allowing bettors to adjust their wagers after placement. This feature is particularly useful for managing parlays, where users can add or remove bets depending on the live situation. If you see a “Cash Out” option next to your wager, you can modify your bet to potentially increase your chances of winning.
WHERE TO BET IN PERSON: While BetMGM has been a longtime partner of the Kansas City Chiefs, there is currently no retail sportsbook at Arrowhead Stadium. However, BetMGM has teamed up with Century Casinos, which will host retail sportsbooks at the following locations in Missouri:
– Century Casino & Hotel Cape Girardeau
– Century Casino & Hotel Caruthersville
COLLEGE SPORTS BETTING: Missouri residents can also bet on college sports without restrictions, including in-state teams and player props, providing a wide range of options for sports fans.
As sports betting gains momentum in Missouri, this launch is expected to create a surge in local engagement and excitement. The newly legal betting landscape will not only enhance the experience for fans but also contribute to economic growth in the region.
