Sports Betting Overview: Missouri

Missouri legalized sports betting in 2024 after years of legislative efforts, with online sportsbooks launching in early 2025. The Show-Me State's market benefits from the Kansas City and St. Louis metropolitan areas, which straddle state borders with Kansas and Illinois. Missouri allows wagering on professional and college sports. The long path to legalization resulted in a well-crafted regulatory framework that attracted major operators at launch. Missouri's strong pro sports culture — Chiefs, Cardinals, Blues, and Sporting KC — combined with passionate Mizzou Tigers fans, creates a robust betting ecosystem. The state's late entry means it learned from other states' regulatory approaches.
