USA Online Sports Betting 2023: Legal Sportsbooks Apps, Promotions and Bonuses

Four years have passed since the Supreme Court struck down the federal ban on sports betting, allowing states to legalize it if they wish. Now 23 States accept mobile betting with multiple options, and 32 States + DC states have regulated betting in some form. This gives sports fans more control and flexibility over what wagers they make, what games they bet on, and when they do it.

Once US states decide to legalize online sports betting, they then begin issuing sportsbook licenses. This also brings in some additional revenue for the state budgets. The second quarter of 2023 is expected to see several online sportsbooks start offering mobile betting apps, with Massachusetts, Texas, and maybe Georgia as possible legal betting states.

Popular Bet Types at US Online Sportsbooks

Bet types at online sports betting sites are divided into straight exotic wagers. Straight bets include moneylines. These are winning bets on events. If the team or player wins, so do you. 

Point spreads are also popular straight bets. With this wager, bettors are getting or giving points. If an NFL game is listed as Philadelphia -7 over Washington, that means if you bet the Eagles, they must win by more than 7 points. Wager on the Commanders and if they win or lose by less than a converted touchdown, your bet cashes.

The total, or the over/under, is the other key straight bet. A points, runs or goals total is established by oddsmakers on a game. Bettors wager on whether the two teams will combine to go over or under that total.

Exotic wagers include parlays. This is a bet combining several plays into one bet. All legs of a parlay must come in for the bet to cash. Parlays offer the chance to win big from a small stake.

Player, game and team props are wagers on events occurring during a game. It could be on how many passes a quarterback will complete, or which team will score the first goal of a game.

Future bets cover long-range plays, such as which team will win the World Series or which golfer will win the Masters. Like parlays, a small stake can result in a big score.

Live betting is a newer and increasingly popular form of sports betting. Also called in-play wagering, bettors are getting action on events as they unfold during the game. It could be a bet on which team scores next, or which player catches the next pass.

Major US Sport Betting Events

The biggest annual sporting event in the USA is the Super Bowl. The championship game of the NFL is also the biggest single sports betting event of the year, pulling in excess of $150 million each year. It’s often referred to in the industry as sports betting Christmas. 

The NFL is the king of sports betting in the United States. Over the course of the season, an estimated $100 billion is wagered on NFL games in the USA.

Another hugely popular betting event in the USA is March Madness. The NCAA Men’s basketball tournament is three weeks of all-out win or go-home action and that intensity spills over into wagering action. According to Statista.com, $3.1 billion was bet on March Madness in 2022.

College football is also massively popular from a betting standpoint, from the regular season, to the bowl games, to the College Football Playoff for the national championship. Conservative estimates are that $1 billion is bet every year on NCAA football.

Between $500 million and $1 billion is bet every year on the NBA. MLB and the NHL aren’t quite as popular from a betting standpoint as these other sports, but still do well. Baseball bettors like the fact that there are games to bet on virtually every day of the season. 

Other North American sports that draw wagering action include tennis, golf, auto racing, boxing, MMA/UFC and soccer. Golf majors such as the Masters, US Open and PGA, the US Open tennis Grand Slam event and marquee auto races such as the Daytona 500 and Indianapolis 500 will prove popular with bettors.

What new customer bonus to expect from online sportsbooks

When legal sports betting sites are up and running in US, new customers will receive a lucrative bonus offer – thanks to the relatively low tax on companies’ revenues (except for NY and PA). When signing up for a sportsbook, look for the welcome promotions such as: 100% deposit match, bet $10, get x5, Free Bet and more types of betting offers available. 

Is the referrer code the same as the bonus code?

Yes, in the US online sportsbooks will sometimes use the referrer (referral) code instead of the bonus or promo code. Typically, the code is inserted on the registration page during sign-up or when new customers make their first deposit. Check out promo codes for BetMGM and Pointsbet.

Are online casinos legal in USA? What sites can I use ?

NJ is the first state in the US to allow online casinos and sports betting. So, yes, expect BetMGM, bet365 and other sites and mobile apps (for Android and iOS) to offer slots and popular casino games such as roulette and blackjack. Check out the list of the best online casinos to expect in US in 2023.
