Online Betting a Hit in Illinois
The in-person registration requirement remains a major ongoing story in the Illinois industry.
The Illinois Gambling Act originally mandated that individuals had to physically visit a casino in order to create sports betting accounts. However, due to the unforeseen circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Governor JB Pritzker temporarily waived this requirement on two occasions – first in June and then again in August.
In March 2022, new legislation permitted Illinois residents to register for sportsbooks online instead of in person at the state’s casinos. This change has greatly benefited the industry by allowing residents to easily sign up with one of the state’s seven legal sportsbooks.
Due to this, residents of Illinois have had plenty of opportunities to sign up for sports betting accounts on their mobile devices, and they have definitely made the most of it. Currently, 94% of sports bets in Illinois are placed online.
