BetMGM Ohio Pre-Launch Offer: $200 Free
Everybody loves free bets, right? Well, BetMGM has dropped $200 in free bets for Ohio sports bettors on the table. To claim this BetMGM Ohio pre-launch bonus, the process is clean and quick:
- Click on this link and visit the BetMGM Ohio website or mobile app.
- Enter BetMGM OH bonus code HANDLEOH during sign up.
- Enter the requested personal information to create and finalize your BetMGM Ohio account.
- The last step? Just wait. BetMGM will launch in Ohio on January 1, 2023, and you’ll have $200 in free bets waiting in your account once it goes live.
Your $200 in free bets for BetMGM Ohio will be credited as four separate $50 bets (4 x $50). You will not be able to divide them up into smaller increments. Additionally, all free bets will expire after 7 days. So make sure you use them to place bets during the first week of January, otherwise they’ll disappear.
Keep in mind that accepting the $200 pre-registration offer will make you ineligible for other new player offers in the state of Ohio. For example, you would not be able to activate the BetMGM $1K risk-free bet offer. With that said, we’d take the $200 free all day. It’s free money.
What will sports betting in Ohio look like?
Sports betting in Ohio starts on January 1, 2023. New Year, New Sports Betting Options. Ohioans will begin 2023 with access to a wide range of popular, and most importantly, completely legal online sportsbooks. BetMGM will launch on January 1.
Sports betting will be legal both online, and in-person. This means that casinos, race tracks, and even major sports stadiums across the state will be able to open sportsbooks. BetMGM will have in-person betting options… more on those below.
You can bet from anywhere in the state of Ohio. As long as you are present within the borders of the state of Ohio, you will be able to legally wager. This includes those at the airport, fans in the upper levels of Paycor Stadium watching the Bengals on Sunday, people enjoying a day on the lake, or even persons that are simply kicking back on the couch.
Betting on college sports is A-OK. Some states prohibit betting on college sports… NOT Ohio. College sports are a massive draw in the Buckeye State, and locals will be able to enjoy wagering on their favorite in-state teams.
Online sports betting companies are going to be taxed at a 10% rate. This is a win for both the state of Ohio, and sports bettors.
Oh, and last but not least – you’ll need to be 21 years old to play.
MGM Northfield Park
Online sportsbooks that operate in the state of Ohio will need to have some roots in the state. Each online betting app must be licensed / partnered with an in-state entity like a casino, racino, or sports team. Thankfully BetMGM is all-set. MGM’s in-state partner is one that it actually owns, the MGM Northfield Park which is located in… you guessed it, Northfield, OH.
MGM didn’t stop with Northfield Park, though. BetMGM will also be the name sponsor of the retail sportsbook for the Cincinnati Reds. The Reds will look to open an in-person facility for patrons to bet while at the ‘Great American Ballpark’.
BetMGM Available Throughout Ohio
Once betting begins on January 1st, not only will the 11+ million residents of Ohio have access to OH online sports books – so will the state’s many visitors. Anyone traveling into the state for business, pleasure, and everything in-between will be able to fire up the BetMGM sports betting app on their phone. Anyone (21+) in the state of Ohio can bet, no matter how long they’re there for.
Kentucky Sports Betting
While most of the states that surround Ohio have some form of online sports betting… not all of them do. Namely, Kentucky to the south has no sports betting infrastructure. You can’t bet online, and you can’t bet in-person anywhere. However, there are a lot of Kentuckians that live near the Ohio border… specifically in the Cincinnati area.
These KY residents will be able to simply drive across the border, load up the BetMGM app, and place bets until their heart is content. Once done, they can return home and watch them play out. You can sweat your bets, request payouts, talk to support, and the like, all from Kentucky (or other states) – you just need to be inside Ohio when you place your bets with BetMGM Ohio.
You can claim this Ohio pre-launch offer from outside the state as well… just use BetMGM bonus code HANDLEOH during sign up and cross the border in early January to put your rewards in play.
