Target Dates for Launch

  • Target Dates for Launch

    Onsite sports betting launched March 11. In early February, the MGCB began working to promulgate rules for online sports betting and internet casino gaming, as well as fantasy sports. The agency expects the rules to take effect in late 2020 or in early 2021.

  • Info
    The MGCB expedited the March 11, 2020, launch of onsite sports betting at the Detroit casinos (tribal casino onsite betting is regulated under federal law).
     
    Around Feb. 1, 2020, the agency began the rulemaking process for online sports betting, online casino betting and online fantasy sports. We expect the process to take about a year (see estimated timeline here). Depending on events, the rules could go into effect earlier or possibly later than the timeline indicates. Members of the public and stakeholders will have an opportunity to review and suggest modifications and/or additions to the rules.
