Missouri Sports Betting Set to Pass, Top Sportsbooks Likely to Join State
Missouri sports betting is on track to officially pass despite a potential recount, with the election results set to be certified by December 10. This paves the way for the Missouri Gaming Commission to move forward with regulations and licenses, aiming to have sports betting up and running by December 1, 2025.
Leading sportsbooks like FanDuel and DraftKings are expected to apply for licenses in Missouri, along with others such as BetMGM, bet365, and Caesars. Despite initially opposing sports betting, Caesars has shifted their stance in response to voter support for legalization.
Professional sports teams like the Chiefs and Cardinals are likely to form partnerships with sportsbooks, potentially opening in-person sportsbooks near their facilities. Similar partnerships have already been established with BetMGM and DraftKings.
As we await the launch of sports betting in Missouri, stay tuned for updates on the latest developments in the industry. Remember, individuals must be 21+ to gamble, and if you have a gambling problem, call 1-800-GAMBLER for help.
