New Jersey license → 888sport has been legal in NJ since 2018.
Safe deposits and withdrawals → You can choose from a number of secure payment providers.
Trustworthy welcome offer → It may not be the largest, but it's an honest welcome offer.
High-value odds → It's what sports betting ultimately comes down to, and 888sport offer some of the best odds in NJ.
888Sport: Licensed and legal in New Jersey
The European sportsbook chose New Jersey as its first port of call in the US, and it has not disappointed. The company's NJ product is one of the best in the market and 100% legal for use in the state. It has also picked up multiple awards for its NJ product including three consecutive eGR Operator Awards.
The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement is the body that awarded the license to 888sport back in 2018. This license means that 888sport is an approved operator, has paid its license fee and state tax. Since it is fully regulated by a state body, the company is liable and therefore much more trustworthy than an offshore operator.
888sport also has an online sports betting license in Nevada. However, due to the in-person requirement placed on customers by the state, you cannot sign-up, deposit or withdraw with 888Sport online.
Outside of the US, the online sportsbook is one of the most trusted operators in the world. 888sport is operational in almost every major European and Asian markets.

Safe deposits and withdrawals with 888Sport
Sports betting with regulated and licensed online sportsbooks in states like New Jersey is 100% legal. Despite this many banks routinely block transfers via Visa or Mastercard. It's still a hangover from the pre-2018 days where these transfers were often to unregulated offshore sportsbooks. It's frustrating and a situation that is likely to remain until every state has legalized online sports betting.
PayPal is the best payment platform to use with 888sport.
888sport does, in fact, allow Visa and Mastercard deposits and because it is a reputable company you will find many banks will actually allow a payment. However, you will not be able to withdraw any winnings via the same method. For this reason, we recommend you avoid this method altogether and use PayPal, the most used and trusted payment service in the industry.
Of course, if you are an old school bettor then you can actually head down to Atlantic City and deposit your funds in person. The advantage of this is that there are no fees charged and it is instant.
