WY Sportsbooks
It has been a slog getting the sports betting bill approved in the equality state, but it is now finally over the line.
The state has legalized mobile-only sports betting. This means that licensed sportsbooks will have no physical presence in the state.
The sports betting bill has created an attractive market for new sportsbooks with a low 10% tax on sports betting revenue.
The three largest sportsbooks are now licensed in the state:
- FanDuel → The largest US online sportsbook is now licensed in the state but is yet to launch its product.
- DraftKings → Where FanDuel goes, DraftKings follows and vice versa. DraftKings' product is now live.
- BetMGM → The third-largest sportsbook in the US has now launched its product in Wyoming.
Wyoming does not represent the largest market, so we don't expect sportsbooks to pour across state borders but due to the low costs and barriers to entry, we don't think it will be long before you get a few more options.
Sports betting in WY - a brief history
A rushed attempt to push through a bill during the 2020 legislative session ultimately failed, but it was very close. The vote was only defeated in the House 27-32. The H225, introduced by Rep. Tom Walter was always going to be difficult to push through since the Equality State had barely touched the subject of sports betting since the federal ban was removed in 2018.
The pressure was mounting on the state as neighboring states had either legalized online sports betting or were in the process of doing so. This meant that Wyoming would lose potential sports betting tax revenue from its own residents to its neighbors.
A good example of this predicament is the city of Cheyenne, located along Wyoming's southern border with Colorado. Cheyenne is not only the capital of Wyoming but also contains the largest population. For residents of Cheyenne, the state of Colorado is only a short drive away.
In Colorado, online sports betting is fully legal, which means you can just cross the border, take out your smartphone and place a wager, even if you are a resident of Wyoming. In fact, Fort Collins a town with an excellent selection of sports bars is less than an hours drive.
In early 2021, Rep. Tom Walters finally pushed through HB 133. Gov. Mark Gordon eventually signed it into law in April 2021.
The Wyoming Gaming Commission officially adopted the law in September 2021.

WY Sportsbook Payments
There is no way around the fact that Sportsbook deposits and withdrawals are the most tedious aspect of sports betting not just in Wyoming but in any state in the US.
The reasons for this are long and complex, but the short of it is that the US banking system is running a few years behind the changes in legislation around the country that have come into play since the Senate removed the federal ban on sports betting in 2018.
Visa/ Mastercard
This simply should have been the simplest method of transferring your funds, but although many sportsbooks accept it as a deposit method, it is almost impossible to withdraw your funds to your card and if you do manage to you'll pay such high fees it won't be worth it. Since we do not recommend you have a different deposit method to your withdrawal method we suggest you use an e-wallet instead
PayPal
PayPal is simply the simplest and safest option for new customers in Wyoming. The e-wallet allows you to bypass banking restrictions in a simple and fast fashion. Since PayPal uses state of the art encryption technology you also add an extra layer of security to your transactions.
Skrill
Skrill is another e-wallet that works just as well as PayPal. The only real difference is that Skrill charges you a small fee when you withdraw your funds, whereas PayPal charges you when you deposit funds. Currently, BetMGM is the only sportsbook in Wyoming that offers Skrill as a payment option
ACH (eCheck)
This method might sound a little clunky compared to the big brands such as PayPal but anyone who has used it will know that it is surprisingly easy to use and set up. All you need to do is provide your social security number and choose a PIN. The advantage of this method is you do not incur the fees you do with a credit or debit card. The drawback is that the processing times are much longer - up to 48 hours to deposit and up to 72 hours to withdraw.
Sports teams in Wyoming
With only a population of around half a million, it comes as no suprise that there are no pro league sports teams in the state of Wyoming.
However there are a number of popular sports teams in the bordering states. Pro football is the most popular sport in the state, with the Denver Broncos from Colorado the most popular team. The Broncos who play their games not far from the Wyoming's capital Cheyenne have enjoyed some considerable success over the years with three Super Bowl titles.
Basketball is also a popular sport in the state, with Utah Jazz and the Denver Nuggets popular in Wyoming. The Colorado Rockies are the most popular baseball team.
Soccer is also growing in popularity with the Colorado Avalanche and Real Salt Lake well supported MLS teams in Wyoming.

Legal sportsbooks
Fanduel is the country's largest online sportsbook and was instrumental in lobbying the state of Wyoming to legalize sports betting.
The online sportsbook is yet to launch its product.
DraftKings is one of two licensed and operational WY sportsbooks currently offering mobile wagering.
Its WY product is excellent and it provides its customers with an excellent selection of bets and sports to choose from.
If you are already a customer of the sportsbook's fantasy sports product and are interested in sports wagering, then we can highly recommend you sign-up to DraftKings.
The only major drawback with DraftKings WY is that it has added an x25 turnover requirement to its new customer offer, which means there is little value in the bonus.
The country's third-largest sportsbook is now hot on the heels of the big two FanDuel and DraftKings.
The sportsbook has a great mobile app customized for WY users with a great selection of events to choose from.
The area where this sportsbook really comes to into its own is its excellent selection of promos. Here we do not refer to the welcome offer, but rather the everyday promotions, often promoted by the familiar face of Jamie Foxx.
