Missouri Retail Sports Betting Guide: MO Retail Sportsbooks February 2025

Expected Retail Sports Betting Locations in Missouri

While there are no legal sports betting locations in the Show-Me State just yet, sports betting bill Amendment 2 allows for retail sportsbooks at the state's casinos and in special districts near each of the state's six professional sports stadiums. 

Here's where we expect legal MO retail sportsbooks to be located at casinos. 

And here's where we expect legal retail sportsbooks to be located near Missouri's professional sports stadiums. 

Why Choose a Retail Sportsbook?

Choosing a retail sportsbook over a mobile betting app depends on what kind of experience you're looking for. If you're more interested in the convenience of betting anytime, anywhere, maybe using an app or online sportsbook is more your style. 

However, if you're more of a social person like myself, and are looking for an immersive betting experience surrounded by bettors and fans cheering for a specific player or outcome, retail betting is for you. Remember that there's plenty of TV screens and a video wall displaying several sporting events at one time, so you can see all of the games that you bet on in one setting. 

Pros and Cons of Retail Sports Betting

Should I Download a Sports Betting App Before Visiting a Retail Sportsbook?

My opinion is yes, you should download a betting app before visiting a retail sportsbook. That way you're prepared to confidently curate and place bets at a retail sportsbook. Sometimes betting for the first time can be overwhelming, but if you've bet online before, you'll know what to look for and how to bet.

You'll also appreciate the entertainment value of a retail sports betting location more, in my opinion. 

The same philosophy applies to downloading an online casino app. If online casinos in Missouri every become legal, you can test out casino games before heading to a casino and playing blackjack or roulette. 

Should I Register for a Sports Betting Account Prior to Going to a Retail Sportsbook?

Yes, it's recommended that you should register for a sports betting account prior to visiting a retail sportsbook, especially if that retail sportsbook is partnered with a mobile app. If you register with the same brand that operates the retail sportsbook that you intend to visit, you can earn toward lucrative rewards while betting with that sportsbook, such as the loyalty program offered by BetMGM Missouri. 

Are Promotions Available at Missouri Retail Sportsbooks?

It remains to be seen whether or not you can find Missouri sportsbook promos at retail locations in the state. In some cases, most retail sportsbooks will offer special promotions that could offer discounts on food or drink or free play at the casino if you place a bet in person.

Should I Claim an Online Betting Promo Before Visiting a Retail Sportsbook?

Yes, it's highly recommended that you claim an online betting promo prior to visiting a retail sportsbook. 

Promotions offered by online sportsbooks are much more generous and can grant thousands in bonus bets or a range of odds boosts. It all depends on what you find on your chosen app or site. Just remember that you likely won't find the same promos at retail sports betting locations in MO that you would on an online sportsbook like, say Caesars Sportsbook Missouri.
