Is BetMGM legal in Michigan?

Yes, thanks in part to Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who signed a series of bills into law in December 2019 that legalized sports betting and fantasy sports contests, as well as online poker and online casinos in the state.

Under the law, the only casinos that can secure Michigan sports betting licenses are the ones already in existence, which includes three commercial casinos in Detroit and the 23 tribal casinos throughout the state.

Not surprisingly, BetMGM partnered with MGM Grand Detroit. The pair opened BetMGM’s retail sportsbook in March 2020.

BetMGM Sportsbook app

Although BetMGM Sportsbook has a website you can use, the BetMGM app is great because it means you can have the power of a sportsbook in your pocket. You can place and track bets anytime, anywhere. The BetMGM Sportsbook app is available for both Android and Apple and can be downloaded by following our links. In this section, we go over everything you need to know about the BetMGM mobile app.

How to download the BetMGM app

Start by heading over to the homepage to download the BetMGM Sportsbook app for your Apple or Android device. Look for the link to iOS or Android.

When you go to download the app, you will be asked if you trust this file. Select “yes.” Depending on your security settings, you might have to enter your PIN or use your fingerprint or facial ID.

After getting the file downloaded, you now need to get it installed. Click on the file, and you likely will be asked if you want to install the file on your phone or tablet. Just like before, you will select “yes.”

The BetMGM online sportsbook app is now ready to use on your mobile device.

Navigating the BetMGM Sportsbook app

Once you open the BetMGM app, you will either click the “Log in” or “Register” button at the top right corner of the screen. If you haven’t already registered with BetMGM, there are instructions on how to do so near the top of the screen.

One thing you might notice about the BetMGM app is that it can be viewed either vertically or horizontally. Although some apps look and function a little differently in each orientation, BetMGM is not one of them. The only real difference you will see is that in the sideways view, there are popular games listed on the left side of the screen. In the upright position, those contests are displayed in the middle of the screen.

Now, let’s take a look at some of the most important areas of the BetMGM Sportsbook app.

• Homepage: On the homepage, you will be able to click on the all sections discussed below. You also will see a listing of the top sports to wager on at BetMGM listed along the top of the screen. Directly below that are the odds boosts that BetMGM online sportsbook has going. When you keep scrolling, you will see a listing of either live games or upcoming contests. What you might miss is a section called “easy parlay.” Here is where you’ll find the BetMGM parlay builder. It definitely is worth checking out, because it truly does making building parlays (either traditional or same-game) a streamlined effort.
• My Account: Located at the top right corner. Here you are able to check your balance, change your settings, contact the help desk and view your M Life Rewards status. You also can access the cashier, where you can withdraw or deposit funds out of or into your BetMGM account. This also is where you can log out of your account.
• My Inbox: Located next to My Account. My Inbox displays various messages from BetMGM. Most of the time, these messages have to do with ongoing promotions or free bets you have either earned or been rewarded. Make sure to check this area out often, because BetMGM has been known to give out free bets, but only with 24 hours to claim them.
• Promotions page: You can access the promotions page either by clicking the tab labeled “Promotions” at the bottom of the page or the one located in your account. You’ll find all the current BetMGM promos being offered. Most of the time, you need to opt-in in order to be eligible for them. To do so, you’ll need to click on the promo, then select “Learn more” and lastly scroll down to the bottom of the promotion and tap “Opt-in.”
• Betslip: Located at the bottom of the screen in the center. The betslip is one of the most important features of any sportsbook. BetMGM’s betslip is easy to use, as adding and removing games for parlays is quite simple. You can then track your live and past bets in the “My Bets” section, which is located just to the right of your betslip.

Best features of the BetMGM Sportsbook app

There are a lot of great features for the BetMGM Sportsbook app in Michigan, but we wanted to offer our take on the three best features that BetMGM has to offer.

• Parlay Builder: It was announced in October 2020 that BetGenius had partnered with BetMGM, and the two were launching Parlay Builder for BetMGM Sportsbook. Building parlays can take a while, but Parlay Builder is fast and easy. We really like the same-game parlays you’re able to build with NFL games. BetMGM also offers pre-built parlays, which can take the hassle out of parlays entirely.
• M Life Rewards: Not having a loyalty program is one of our biggest complaints about Michigan sportsbooks, so it should come as no surprise that one of our favorite features at BetMGM Sportsbook is the M Life Rewards program. Players earn credits for every $100 in straight bets they place and for every $50 in round robins and parlays. The loyalty program is the same one you will find at MGM Resorts, which means you can use your rewards at BetMGM Sportsbook or at MGM casinos and resorts around the world. Talk about a win-win!
• Promos and freebies: One of the deciding factors for a lot of bettors when choosing a sportsbook is the number of promotions and giveaways offered. Well, at BetMGM online sportsbook in Michigan, you can expect quite a few of both. There are BetMGM promos in which you can increase the money you win on parlays, others where you get free bets for betting at least $50 a week, and still others where you can get refunds on lost bets. During the NFL season, BetMGM has a free contest where you can win $5, $10 or $100 free bets for selecting the first touchdown scorer in three selected games.

How could BetMGM Sportsbook improve?

We’d be remiss if we only told you about all the great things BetMGM has to offers Michiganders. Although we strongly recommend BetMGM, there still are a few aspects of the sportsbook that aren’t our favorites.

• Simpler promotions: We get it, pretty much all online sportsbooks require you to opt into their promotions in order to be eligible for them. We’re not sure any are quite as difficult to activate, though, as the ones at BetMGM. First, you need to go to the promotions pages. Then you have to find the promo you want and click on the image. Next, when the “Learn more” tab appears, you need to click on that. A new screen appears, and finally (!) you can scroll to the bottom and click “Opt-in.” Let’s eliminate a few of those steps, please.
• Different betslip settings: We were surprised when we first started using the BetMGM Sportsbook app that when we went to make a bet, our betslip always would display “$50” when we selected a wager. When we dug into our user settings, we found that the defaults were set at $50 and to not require confirmation when placing a bet. We would rather the defaults were always set to the smallest bet amount and require confirmation when placing bets. Anything that makes it less likely for users to place a bet on accident is what we like to see.
• Toned-down home screen: When it comes to online sportsbooks, there can be a whole lot going on. Between the number of sports and bets you can make, to promos, odds boosts, cashiers, betslips and a lot more, the presentation can be overwhelming. What makes it easier to manage is when all those things aren’t cramming into an app’s main screen. It definitely is not a deal-breaker, but it would be nice to get rid of the rotating marquee that often displays in the middle of the page when you log in.

Michigan sports team betting guide

With sports betting live in Michigan, it means you now have the opportunity to bet on all of our local teams. And we’ve got quite a few.

Detroit is home to all four major professional sports leagues, while Michigan has seven Division-I colleges with teams spread across the Big Ten and Mid-American conferences (plus two more in the Horizon League). Let’s jump right in.

• The NFL is king when it comes to just about everything in sports, and that includes betting. Locally, we’ve got the Detroit Lions to focus on. Despite the fact the Lions haven’t won a playoff game since 1991, that doesn’t mean we can’t bet on them. Even during their down years, you can always bet the spread, the over/under, or just wager on a couple of team prop bets.
• In MLB, it’s been a bit of a dry spell for the Detroit Tigers as well. The Tigers haven’t gone to the playoffs since 2014 and haven’t won the World Series since 1984. But they do hold the record as the oldest continuous one-name, one-city franchise in the American League. And now you can thank them for their loyalty to Detroit by placing both pre-game and live wagers on them throughout the season at BetMGM Sportsbook.
• In the NBA, the Detroit Pistons went to six consecutive Eastern Conference Finals from 2003-2008, including winning the NBA title in 2004. Sadly, since that run ended the Pistons haven’t been able to win a playoff game, let alone a series. The current team features No. 1 overall NBA Draft pick Cade Cunningham, so they’re fun to watch. And with a myriad of options to wager on at BetMGM, you’re sure to find something to your liking.
• The NHL’s Detroit Red Wings are one of the Original Six teams in the league and have won the most Stanley Cup titles of any U.S.-based franchise with 11. Their last championship was during the 2007-08 season. And in case you haven’t noticed a theme yet, they’ve been struggling of late. The Red Wings have missed the playoffs each of the past five seasons. That’s the second-longest streak in the NHL.

Now, let’s look at the Michigan college teams that you can bet on at BetMGM.

• In the Big Ten, you’ve got two perennial powerhouses in the Michigan Wolverines and Michigan State Spartans. Chances are you’re not a fan of both, so maybe you can spend your college football Saturdays betting for your team and against the other, if that’s your jam. Both also have top basketball teams to bet on during the season too.
• In the Mid-American Conference, you have three schools to choose from. There’s the Central Michigan Chippewas, the Eastern Michigan Eagles, and the Western Michigan Broncos. All three schools have football and basketball teams you can wager on at BetMGM Sportsbook, and the latter portion of the season also features popular midweek “MACtion” games.
• And last, but not least, you’ve got the Detroit Mercy Titans and Oakland Golden Grizzlies in the Horizon League. Neither team fields a football team, but the winner of the Horizon League tournament at the end of the season automatically gets into the NCAA Tournament, which is sure to see plenty of March Madness wagers every year at BetMGM.

At BetMGM, you’re able to place sports bets of all types on all the teams listed above, from moneyline and over/unders, to parlays, teasers, and prop bets galore.

BetMGM Michigan futures market

If you enjoy futures betting, then you’re in luck. Not only does BetMGM Sportsbook offer a plethora of futures, but with the abundance of sports teams Michigan has to offer, you’re able to bet on all your favorites.

In baseball, you can bet on the Detroit Tigers to win the AL Central, American League pennant or the World Series. There are also futures for the team’s win total available before the season that gives you the choice of picking the over or under.

For the NFL, BetMGM offers all the usual futures such as regular-season win totals, division and conference winners, Super Bowl winners and individuals award winners. But they also offer something unique that you might like. You can pick the exact outcome of the Super Bowl for every team in the league. Meaning, you can select the Detroit Lions to beat any team in the AFC in next year’s NFL championship game. It’s a fun futures option that pays out mega-big if you get it right.

NBA futures at BetMGM give you the chance to pick the Detroit Pistons to win their division, conference and championship, as well as bet on the team’s win total. You also can bet on individual awards during the regular and postseason.

If the Detroit Red Wings in the NHL are more your style, BetMGM has you covered. All the same options we’ve discussed in the other sports are there for your betting pleasure.

As for college sports, your futures options are a little more limited, but the big teams and events still are available.

At BetMGM, you normally can place futures wagers on Michigan, Michigan State, Central Michigan, Eastern Michigan, and Western Michigan to win the football national championship or their respective league or division within a league.

For men’s college basketball, you can bet on all the schools listed above to win the NCAA championship or their respective conference, as well as Detroit Mercy and Oakland. But to be fair, there are quite a few bets you could make instead that are a little more likely to occur.

Types of bets available on BetMGM

There are several standard betting types available for players to choose from on the BetMGM platform.

History of BetMGM Sportsbook Michigan

BetMGM Sports is the US casino and hospitality giant MGM Resorts International’s entry into the online and mobile sports betting market.

MGM Resorts International owns and operates the MGM Grand Detroit casino in Michigan, where it launched the 60-TV and 280-seat BetMGM Sports Lounge in 2019.

When BetMGM Sports, initially dubbed playMGM, launched in New Jersey in 2018, it became part of the first all-in-one gaming site in the country. Players were subsequently able to enjoy online poker, online casino games and online sports betting with a single account. The same service has been rolled out in Michigan when mobile gaming was put into play in early 2021.

Is BetMGM the best sportsbook in Michigan?

Well, BetMGM is certainly in the discussion. With a wide range of top brands operating in the state, it’s hard to declare an overall winner, but there’s a lot to like about BetMGM.

The app and website work very well, which is a must when it comes to mobile sports betting. And having a retail sportsbook like the BetMGM Sports Lounge at the MGM Grand Detroit takes access to another level.

We are very confident in recommending BetMGM Sportsbook to our readers.
