BetMGM - Legal website in the U.S.

On brand recognition alone, BetMGM should be one of the top online sportsbooks and casinos in America.

As the state of Illinois finally ends its in-person registration requirement for online sports betting, the state welcomes a new online sports betting operator into the fold. As the online bookmaker finally secures its sports betting license, BetMGM will be a welcome addition to the Illinois mobile sports betting community.

What BetMGM brings to Illinois sports bettors is another top-of-the-line mobile app on which they can place wagers. BetMGM's platform is stylish, well-organized, and easy to navigate. The home landing page is chalked full of sports betting information with much-needed administrative information at the bottom.

The black/gold mobile app is compatible with the Android and iOS (Apple) operating systems. Sports bettors can also gain access to the sports betting platform with a PC/laptop and web browser.

Betting Markets

As is the case throughout the rest of the sports betting operator's state websites, BetMGM has shown it is dedicated to making sure Illinois sports bettors have access to all relevant betting markets. The coverage spans from top U.S. leagues to the best betting markets the rest of the world has to offer.

From the U.S., bettors can wager on top markets like PGA Golf, MLS, MLB, NBA, WNBA, NHL, NFL, NASCAR, and college sports like baseball, basketball, and football. At the international level, BetMGM offers access to the following markets: Canadian Football League, Aussie Rules Football, top international soccer leagues (Premier, Champions), cycling, boxing, MMA, basketball, Asian baseball, and more.

Betting Options

As a means of appealing to sports bettors at every level, BetMGM allows for a wide range of betting options. The current list of available options includes point spread straight bets, money line straight bets, parlays, teasers, round robin bets, futures odds betting, prop bets, and live in-game wagers.

BetMGM has a reputation for maintaining aggressive betting limits while also catering to high rollers who want to place very large wagers.

Bonuses and Promotions

BetMGM also has a reputation for posting a nice selection of bonuses and sports betting promotions. They tend to change promos frequently while posting bonuses that feature profit boosts and bonus bet offers tied to betting on a particular sports betting market.

The BetMGM welcome offer is up to $1500 in Bonus Bets paid back if the first bet does not win.

Banking and Customer Service

Sports bettors will be pleased to see that BetMGM offers the banking options with which most U.S. sports bettors are familiar. With fair deposit/withdrawal limits, the list of banking options includes VISA, PayPal, MasterCard, bank transfer options, Apple Pay, PayNearMe, and more.

If issues arise, bettors can contact a customer service rep by email, phone, or the website's live chat option 24/7.

Verdict: BetMGM is a leading sports betting brand in America. They should definitely be counted as a reliable and reputable brand.
