Best Online Reviews for Michigan Sports Betting

Legal Michigan Sports Betting

Michigan passed a sports betting bill allowing for legal sports betting both in physical locations and online in December 2019. The expected launch for Michigan will be in the first quarter of 2021, however with many casinos being forced to close, the push for online sports betting has been expedited and could be here sooner. 

The good news for Michigan sports bettors is that some of the top sportsbooks in the country have already announced plans to launch their sites in the state, looking to give bettors plenty of great options to choose from. 

Where to bet on sports in Michigan

We are already aware of some of the nationally-known sportsbooks that will be launching in the state due to current deals in place with Michigan brick and mortars. The sportsbook coming to the state will bring a healthy and competitive environment while also allowing Michigan residents to play with some of the top sports betting sites. 

Best Mobile betting apps in Michigan

With the sports betting apps that have already signed partnerships and made plans to come to Michigan, we can easily expect the state to have access to some of the best in the game. Each of the online sportsbooks coming to the state are both nationally recognized and respected. 

The competition will surely be intense as at least five giants in the sports betting industry will be launching mobile betting apps. After downloading and betting with all of them, there are a couple that have stood out to us in other states as our favorites. 

BetMGM betting app 

This sports betting app has more experience than most of the other Michigan sportsbooks, as it has operated in Las Vegas as PlayMGM for years. The MGM Entertainment product can be expected to launch the same mobile betting app that we have enjoyed so much in other states.

BetMGM comes loaded with betting features and contains top quality betting in just about every aspect. Live betting on the site is exceptional, as it features like unique bet types and live streaming. The mobile app itself runs well, and includes a large variety of sports and competitions to bet on, as well as quick payment transactions, extensive promotions and a rewards program. 

PointsBet betting app

PointsBet was one of the latecomers to the US market, launching in New Jersey in January 2019. However, the Australian-based sportsbook has quickly moved across the US, launching in multiple states including Michigan. 

The PointsBet mobile betting app most notably brings a new style of wagering to America not seen on other sportsbooks called ‘pointsbetting’. This betting allows players to win more money depending on how correct their wager was. Fixed-odds betting is of course also included as well as a long list of promotions, early cash outs and unique betting markets like entertainment and name a bet categories. 

William Hill betting app

Another sportsbook with a comprehensive history in the United States betting industry, William Hill has been operating the highest number of physical sports betting shops in Nevada for years. The company was founded in 1964 in England and is well acclimated to both styles of betting. 

William Hill comes to Michigan following massive success in other states. The success could be attributed to the straightforward style of betting, along with a well-designed mobile betting app with plenty of features. William Hill has great promotions available, excellent all-around live betting and the experience which comes in handy with things like payment transactions and customer support. 

How to Register a Sports Betting Account 

When the time comes, registration will be able to be completed fully online. This includes not only registration, but making payment transactions as well. Signup for any of the mobile sportsbooks or betting apps will take place in mostly the same manner. 

First, players will need to determine which sportsbook fits them best, which can be done by reading through sportsbook reviews and rankings. 

After this is done mobile apps can be downloaded and registration can begin on either the desktop version or the betting app itself. Once the registration is completed and approved, players will be able to make deposits and bets on the sportsbook.
