About BetMGM

In August 2017, MGM Resorts’ first online casino went live under the PlayMGM brand, in a joint venture with GVC Holdings.

It has since rebranded as BetMGM and added mobile sports betting. Today, it is active across multiple states in the US, with valid licences in West Virginia, New Jersey and Indiana, and works slightly differently in each one.

And, as customers have come to expect, BetMGM is optimised for all devices, mobile or otherwise.

User-friendly yet comprehensive, the site and app are clean-looking with an intuitive layout while also being straightforward to navigate and locate what you’re looking for. What’s more, the app has been enhanced significantly since launch.

There’s a hassle-free four-step registration process, and then you’re ready to bet on the BetMGM sportsbook.

Great games at BetMGM

This operator’s sportsbook encompasses an extensive range of American and international sporting activities. That means a full line-up of all professional leagues, including college ones, with motor racing, golf, boxing, tennis and MMA offered, among others.

Basketball, Aussie Rules football, baseball, cycling and even cross-country skiing and darts are all here, alongside golf, esports and handball.

At the same time, the offering encompasses a rich range of bet types, from totals and spread bets to future, proposition and parlay wagers, all at competitive odds.

There’s plenty of live and in-play betting, whatever time of day you log on. However, some reviewers have remarked on the lack of detailed live data and stats, and say they’d like more advanced handicapping features.

Other perks include daily odds boosts, plus the chance to exit a bet before an event finishes, and so cut your losses.

Bag a big welcome bonus

The bonus structure may vary a little from one state to another. But the welcome bonus is to bet up to $500 in bets and then, if you lose, your money is returned in the form of free bets.

As usual, check back regularly for the latest deals, and see for what’s available in your state. At the time of writing, there were no specific loyalty programmes in place, while the welcome offer was the only available bonus.

What about deposit and withdrawal options?

Again, these can vary between states, but in general encompass credit cards, platforms such as Neteller, Skrill and PayPal, and online bank transfers. Withdrawals may take up to five working days to process. What’s more, you’re asked to withdraw funds using a method you’ve used to make a deposit within the last six months.

How’s customer support?

This is offered via 24/7 live chat, email or telephone, giving you plenty of choices if you need to get in touch.

Summing up

Some reviewers would like to see more promotions offered, but BetMGM is worth a try anyway, with a vast range of activities and betting options, and a generally excellent all-round gambling experience.
