The Seven Louisiana Online Sportsbooks Launching Tomorrow
With the launch date for Louisiana sports betting set for Friday, January 28, we already know a bit about which online sportsbooks will launch in the state.
Indeed, with several operators already approved and many more under consideration, there could be up to 41 LA betting apps in the near future.
In this article, we’ll take a look at all the big-name players.
Which sports betting brands are already confirmed in Louisiana?
As state regulators work overtime to confirm the suitability of LA betting apps, a handful of operators have already been cleared for launch tomorrow.
One of the biggest names among these is Caesars Sportsbook Louisiana, which has been accepting pre-registrations from players for a number of weeks already.
Alongside them, daily fantasy sports betting heavy hitters DraftKings and FanDuel already have land-based partnerships in the state and will also launch on Friday.
That trio will be joined by another big name in the form of BetMGM Louisiana, while online giant Betfred also recently received approval in the state.
Rounding out the list, LA players will also be able to wager at BetRivers Louisiana and PointsBet Sportsbook Louisiana when the first sportsbooks officially launch.
What other online sportsbook apps are likely to join them in future?
As we said, the confirmed list of LA betting apps is just the tip of the iceberg for the state. Louisiana laws make provisions for up to 41 licensed sports betting sites, and many more could follow.
Given that the brand operates a retail sportsbook in Louisiana, it would be surprising if the Golden Nugget’s online app didn’t start accepting players soon.
Horse racing giant TwinSpires also looks to be preparing to enter Louisiana and will offer players markets on many sports, including bets on the NFL.
Although not yet living in Louisiana, Bally Bet Sportsbook is believed to be another name currently under consideration. Operating a physical casino in the state would seem like a straightforward launch.
With officials having confirmed the launch of online sports betting in Louisiana just in time before Super Bowl LVI, the full list of approved sites should be growing soon. According to statements from the Louisiana Gaming Control Board, the reason for the launch hold-up was not wanting to release a shabby product to players.
Are there any pre-registration bonuses I can claim at Louisiana betting sites?
Yes. Several of the confirmed LA betting apps are already accepting pre-registrations and have provided details of their early bird offers.
Caesars LA Sportsbook, DraftKings Louisiana, FanDuel Louisiana and BetMGM’s LA betting app are all offering bonus bets to players worth between $100 and $300. Sportsbook promo codes for the other sites are also available.
Louisiana is not the only state that has regulated sports betting. Another one that's in the process is Kansas. Hopefully. Kansas online sportsbooks will go live by the end of 2022, allowing Kansas bettors to join the sports betting party.
