Pros and cons
Stay tuned as we look to add BetMGM Alberta bonuses and promotions. Here we speculate on what Albertans may be able to claim:
BetMGM potential sign-up bonus:
The potential BetMGM Sportsbook welcome bonus could consist of a first bet offer, where you get up to $1,500 paid back in bonus bets if you don't win your first-time wager.
Bonus bets will not appear in your account as a single wager unless you bet under $50. The bonus bets will be broken down into five chunks, with each making up 20% of the qualifying bet amount — up to $1,500.

With the backing of Entain, BetMGM earned Digital Operator of the Year at the Global Gaming Awards in October 2023. Read on to learn about some of the online sportsbook's standout features we expect to be adapted in Alberta:
Live betting
The section is very nicely organized, with hundreds of events available every day for live betting. BetMGM covers matches from local and international leagues to give users plenty of options. Live events generally have loads of markets, and the interface also shows a simple representation of the action and statistics.
Check out our BetMGM vs Caesars page to see how BetMGM's live betting section compares to the competition.
Live streaming
BetMGM offers free live streaming for various matches, including top soccer games, tennis highlights, and much more. The live section has a dedicated tab with all upcoming matches that users can live stream. These games are marked accordingly on the list and can be viewed by any registered bettor.
Same-game parlays
BetMGM makes placing same-game parlays a snap. Users can navigate to a sport, league, or event page of their choosing and then scroll through the available games, where they'll see 'One Game Parlay' visible on eligible events. Once a game or match is selected, users can select the feature from the menu and begin building their parlay. Same-game parlays have significantly grown in popularity year over year.
Early cash out
The early cash out feature is familiar to most experienced sports bettors. The cash-out feature is available in selected markets and allows bettors to withdraw their payouts at current odds at any time.
I appreciate the flexibility to cut my losses or book a win at any time.
Casino
BetMGM Casino is a premium gaming site available to players in regulated states from the same accounts as the online sportsbook. Here is where you can take your pick from over 500 online casino games, including top slots — like Aristocrat's Buffalo and MGM Grand Millions — live dealer table games, Dual Play Roulette, and so much more. You can also benefit from special bonuses and promotions.
Learn more in our extensive BetMGM Casino review.
Responsible gaming
BetMGM empowers you to set personal limits on deposits and spending. Enable these limits for daily, weekly, or monthly play. If you feel your gambling practices are going in the wrong direction, BetMGM allows its players to take a timeout period for up to 180 days.
A great Canadian betting app has become a must nowadays, and BetMGM has come prepared. The operator has clearly invested heavily in the new mobile betting platform, which is great news for bettors. A slick new look and enhanced navigation lead to a vastly improved user experience. The BetMGM Sportsbook app is available for both Android and iOS devices, with the Android version being particularly strong.
We at Covers highly recommend downloading their app — you won't regret it. The app has an excellent interface that retains some of the desktop platform's styling touches. It is perfectly optimized for betting on smartphones, with a full range of markets to choose from.
Given the two huge brands behind this online sportsbook, it is safe to say that BetMGM is 100 percent legitimate. Beyond that, the sportsbook has garnered registration with the Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis (AGLC).
The operator encourages users to find their answers in the various help centre resources on the site. It has plenty of answered questions and provides more information on banking. Users can opt for live chat or email to contact the support team directly.
BetMGM recently added an official customer support Twitter account to its roster of supported channels. The page is monitored 24 hours a day, enabling customers to chat live with BetMGM representatives.
- Live chat available 24/7
- Email: TBD
- Phone: Not available
- Support languages: English
