Missouri regulators issued seven additional temporary mobile sports betting licenses Wednesday, a key step for the books ahead of a scheduled Dec. 1 launch.
BetMGM, bet365, Caesars, ESPN BET, FanDuel, Fanatics, and Underdog secured temporary licenses from the Missouri Gaming Commission (MGC). They join DraftKings and Circa, which had earned their respective licenses earlier this year.
The temporary licenses advance all nine books a step closer to the state’s universal online and in-person Missouri sports betting December go-live date. All nine will need to submit internal controls, house rules and third-party payment processor information, among other requirements, before they can take bets.
