Everything you need to know about the state of play in Wisconsin as far as gambling is concerned, from Wisconsin online casinos to the sports betting landscape.
Ah, Wisconsin. America’s Dairyland. When will this state legalize online casinos and sports betting for its people? We’re here to keep you updated on all this WI online casinos, land-based casinos and WI sports betting.
Can You Gamble Online in Wisconsin?
Unfortunately, both online sports betting and online casino gambling are currently illegal in Wisconsin. The truth is that the legalization of WI online gambling is not even on the agenda. Even if it was, it would require a change to the state’s constitution – no small feat.
Wisconsin social casinos are permitted, but this is arguably not the same. You are not gambling with real money when playing social casino games. Wisconsin online casino gaming is strictly prohibited.
The only way that you can bet online in Wisconsin is via pari-mutuel wagering on horses.

Plenty of locations to choose from, Wisconsin! However, no WI online casinos yet…


Is Wisconsin Sports Betting Legal?
No, sports betting cannot be done legally in Wisconsin.
However, Minnesota is the only bordering state that also prohibits sports wagering. If you travelled from Wisconsin to Iowa, Michigan or Illinois, you could place a sports bet instantly from your mobile device. Michigan even allows for online casino gambling!
With Wisconsin home to the Packers, Bucks and Brewers, we definitely wouldn’t rule out the chance of sports betting coming to the Badger State. After all, half of the U.S. can now legally place a sports wager in their home state.


What About Wisconsin Daily Fantasy Sports?
Honestly, DFS betting in Wisconsin isn’t really legal or illegal. It’s a gray area.
But it’s definitely more legal than the Wisconsin online casinos. To put it simply, you will be able to open a DraftKings or FanDuel without any problems in Wisconsin.
Can You Bet on Horse Races in Wisconsin?
Pari-mutuel wagering has been legal in Wisconsin since 1987. However, no horse racing tracks opened.
Instead, five greyhound tracks opened between 1990 and 1991. Now, all tracks are closed. The last track to close was Dairyland Greyhound Park in Kenosha, back in 2009.
