Online Betting a Hit in Illinois

One of the biggest ongoing stories in the Illinois industry is the in-person registration requirement.

The Illinois Gambling Act was written to require people to visit a casino to sign up for sports betting accounts. But in 2020, COVID-19 had other plans. As a result of the pandemic, Gov. JB Pritzker suspended the in-person registration requirement twice in 2020. Once in June and again in August.

As a result, Illinoisans have had ample time to register for sports betting accounts on their mobile devices. And they’ve certainly taken advantage. In July, almost 93% of Illinois sports bets were placed online. In August, that number ticked up to 94%.

How Revenue Compares to Indiana

Neighboring Indiana has a more mature sports betting market in Illinois, as it was legalized in October 2019.

We can only compare data between Indiana and Illinois for a few months, but the Land of Lincoln is quickly gaining ground. In July, the Hoosier State reported $70.9 million in handle, followed by $169 million in August. While that’s higher than Illinois’ figures, there were eight online sportsbooks in Indiana as of August with no registration restrictions. In Illinois, there was only one for the entire month: BetRivers. And you couldn’t register online until Aug. 21, 2020.
