Sports Betting By State

Sports betting in the United States varies significantly by state, reflecting diverse regulations and cultural attitudes. Following the 2018 Supreme Court decision that allowed states to legalize sports wagering, many have embraced it, generating substantial revenue. States like New Jersey and Pennsylvania have become leaders in the market, while others, such as Utah, maintain strict prohibitions. Each state’s approach includes different licensing requirements, tax rates, and betting options, from online platforms to in-person sportsbooks, creating a dynamic landscape for sports enthusiasts and bettors alike.
