Summary
Seven legal online sportsbook apps are now available in Massachusetts for bettors 21 and older who are physically inside the state.
House Bill 5164 made sports betting legal after lawmakers approved it on Aug. 1, 2022, and Governor Charlie Baker signed it on Aug. 10, 2022.
Retail sportsbooks opened first on Jan. 31, 2023, and online betting followed on March 10, 2023, after the Massachusetts Gaming Commission approved the first operators.
Three retail locations also operate in the state—Encore Boston Harbor, MGM Springfield and Plainridge Park Casino—while college betting bars player props and most wagers on in-state teams.
