Sports Betting Glossary
Sports betting comes with its own language and terminology — spreads and money lines, over/unders and props, juice and vig, and so much more. It can be intimidating for newer betting sports fans, so be sure to consult our sports betting glossary for detailed definitions of all the main terms.
We recommend each of the online sportsbooks to help define these terms within their product to make everything easier for you to understand, too.

How Wyoming Sports Betting Compares: The Sports Betting Report Card
We've graded Wyoming on its sports betting bill and experience relative to other states on crucial categories like the number of operators, tax rates, mobile offerings and more.
Wyoming Sports Betting Grading Card
Mobile Apps
Currently, DraftKings and BetMGM are the only mobile operators in Wyoming. The one hiccup is Wyoming’s small population could disincentivize other sports betting operators from entering the market.
Deposit Options
The first state to explicitly allow cryptocurrency payments, Wyoming is arguably the nation’s best state for depositing.
Competitive Prices
Pricing in Wyoming greatly depends on market participation.
Market Coverage
Wyoming law allows a wide range of sports, and could even see certain regional popular sports such as rodeos or professional bull riding offered to bettors.
Wyoming Sports Betting Background and Legalization Timeline
In one of the most surprising 2021 sports betting developments, Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon signed HB133 into law in April 2021, paving the way for legal sports betting in the state. For now, Wyoming is the nation’s second uncapped, online-only sports betting state; however, Wyoming’s Northern Arapaho tribe are planning sportsbooks for its three casinos but are limited to in-person bets.
Two commercial online sportsbooks, DraftKings and BetMGM, began taking bets Sept. 1, 2021. FanDuel Sportsbook launched on March 10, 2022. Several more sportsbooks could be on the way to the state in the coming months. Eligible bettors physically within Wyoming state lines can register, deposit and wager from any regulated book. Wyoming sportsbooks can also accept cryptocurrency payments for wagering.
The Wyoming Gaming Commission will regulate wagering and will be required to issue at least five licenses if enough eligible applicants apply. The law requires the commission to issue permits to eligible applicants operating in at least five other jurisdictions. Other well-known national brands including Barstool Sports and PointsBet have shown interest in the market.
Applicants would pay a $100,000 initial fee with a $50,000 renewal every five years and be taxed at 10% of gross gaming revenue. All of these are around industry averages, but Wyoming’s sparse population (and limited customer base) may deter would-be applicants.
Officials didn’t estimate legal wagering’s revenue generation potential, but the gaming commission projected Wyoming residents wager more than $450 million illegally each year. Assuming that projection is accurate, and Wyoming captures all the illegal market (a difficult process that would likely take years), operators could reasonably generate between $25 and $35 million in gross gaming revenue, funding $2.5 million to $3.5 million in annual taxes in a best-case scenario.
There are no prohibitions on eSports or college sports betting, meaning bettors could wager on out-of-state and instate programs like the University of Wyoming football and men’s basketball teams. The legal wagering age in Wyoming is 18; in most states it is 21.
The nation’s least populated and second-least densely populated state is the second statewide mobile market in the Mountain West after Colorado.

Little Wind Casino
Yes, you can legally wager on sports in the Cowboy State as of Sept. 1, 2021.
There are only four legal online sportsbooks available in the Cowboy State: DraftKings, BetMGM, FanDuel and Caesars. Wyoming's below-average population size hasn't drawn new online sportsbooks to enter their market in a while. One benefit, however, is that WY is the only state besides Colorado to offer sports betting in their midwestern region of the U.S.
Operators are taxed at an even 10%. This tax rate is average in the industry and incomparable to the tax rates in states like New York, Rhode Island, and Delaware.
Sports betting or gambling websites that are not regulated by the state of Wyoming are considered illegal. Your money is never secure on offshore sites that are not regulated by a legal entity. Websites like MyBookie and Bovada are common examples of offshore gambling operators.
The Wyoming Gaming Commission (WGC) is in charge of regulating and overseeing (non-tribal) online sports betting throughout the state. The WCG are members of five sports betting regulation organizations:
- North American Gaming Regulators Association
- Organization of Racing Investigators
- Racing Commission International
- Sports Betting Regulators Association
- Wyoming Responsible Gambling Coalition
You must be at least 18 years old to place a bet in Wyoming. In most states, the age is 21.
