Neighboring states with legal online sports bettingĪlthough Wisconsin is still in the early stages of developing its legal sports betting industry, some neighboring states are further along in the process with both retail and mobile sportsbooks. No bills which would legalize online sportsbooks have been submitted since states were given the right to decide their own betting laws in 2018. However, there is still little progress in bringing legal online sports betting to Wisconsin.
Since then, the St Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin and Forest County Potawatomi Community have also struck deals with the Wisconsin government to open sportsbooks in 2022. The first legal sportsbook to open was at the Oneida Casino in Green Bay in November 2021. Currently, there is only retail sports betting available at a limited number of the Badger State’s tribal casinos. Wisconsin is in the very early stages of rolling out legal sports betting.
