    Latest Iowa sports betting news

    Who can bet on sports in Iowa?

    Adults 21 and over are permitted to place a sports bet in Iowa. Wagers can be placed via a legal sports betting website, mobile app, or at one of Iowa’s retail sportsbooks.

    The following tips will help you get started with legal sports betting in Iowa.

    21plus Legal age

    If you are 21 or older, you are allowed to bet on sports in person or on Iowa sports betting sites.

    21plus Mobile betting

    Place your Iowa sports bets using a computer or mobile device to access an online sportsbook or sportsbook app. The Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission regulates all sports betting activity in the Hawkeye State.

    21plus Remote registration

    Remote registration has been available in Iowa since January 2021. This option allows Iowans to complete the entire sign-up process remotely with a computer or mobile phone. Previously, Iowa gamblers were required to visit a casino to complete their registration before betting with an online sportsbook.

    globe Within state borders

    Legal online sportsbooks use geofencing to ensure all players are physically present in Iowa. Attempts to place bets from out of state will be denied. Therefore, it’s essential for Iowans and those passing through the state to turn on location services when placing online bets.

    bank Retail sportsbooks

    Iowa is home to 17 retail sportsbooks found at one of the state’s 19 licensed casinos.

    percent Taxable winnings

    Like nearly all other states, gambling winnings are taxable at both the federal and state levels in Iowa.

    Iowans must report all winnings on federal tax returns, as this money is subject to the standard 24% tax. Winnings that exceed $600 must be reported to the state and taxed at 5%.

    The pros and cons of Iowa sports betting

    A major shift in Iowa sports betting took place when remote registration was introduced in 2021. Iowans can now place their first sports bets from the comfort of their own home.

    Like many other states with legal sports betting, Iowa does not allow college player proposition betting, nor has it yet to legalize action on the NFL Draft.

    How to start betting in Iowa

    Now that Iowans can complete the registration process remotely, placing a legal sports bet has never been easier in the Hawkeye State. 

    Casinos are also an option for those who prefer the atmosphere a retail sportsbook provides.

    1

    Select a sportsbook

    There are many Iowa sportsbooks to choose from, making research an integral part of the process. Conduct research to identify the options that provide the best sign-up bonuses, lines, and customer support.

    Check out some betting site reviews and take a look at the terms and conditions of the Iowa sportsbooks you’re considering before getting started.

    2

    Register online

    Once you’ve picked out the Iowa betting site that you trust to satisfy your gambling needs, go ahead and fill in your information on their website or mobile app. Be prepared to provide the last four digits of your SSN.

    3

    Claim a bonus

    The amount of competition in Iowa certainly has its benefits for new users, as Iowa sports betting sites routinely offer some excellent promotions to entice potential customers to try out their platforms.

    Common bonuses in Iowa include:

    • Risk-free bets: If your first bet with a sportsbook is unsuccessful, they may offer to refund the lost amount to your account
    • Deposit match: After you add funds to your account, some Iowa sports betting sites may top up your account with the same amount. Playthrough requirements usually come into play here.
    • No-deposit bonus: If you’re looking for a way to get started without making a deposit, this may be for you. Upon sign-up, you’ll be given a small amount of cash to place your first bet. Expect playthrough requirements here as well.

    4

    Choose your bet

    Iowa sports bettors have access to nearly every type of bet imaginable. Betting options are plentiful, and these are the most common bet types:

    Betting the moneyline is favored by new sports bettors because you're simply choosing which side will win.

    With Over/Unders (totals), you must decide whether the combined score will exceed or fall short of the projected total number set by oddsmakers.

    The point spread is considered an equalizer for sports bettors. Oddsmakers apply spread betting to level the playing field since the skill level of teams differs.

     

    5

    Deposit

    Iowans have several sportsbook deposit and withdrawal methods available when it comes to adding funds to an account. Keep a watchful eye on transaction fees, however, as these can vary depending on your chosen payment method.

    Common payment options in Iowa include debit/credit cards, bank transfers, e-wallets, and prepaid cards. Cash can also be used when visiting a casino.

    6

    Start betting

    Look at how different sportsbooks’ betting lines stack up against one another before placing your first bet. Glancing over a few different options will ensure you’re not squandering an opportunity to place a more favorable wager.

    7

    Withdraw

    Iowa sports bettors can withdraw funds from their accounts in a variety of ways. Remember, bank and transaction fees vary here as well, so check to see which method gives you the most bang for your buck.

    Odds explained

    Iowa sportsbooks use American Odds — aka moneyline odds — to display favorites and underdogs. A minus sign (-) is listed next to the favorite. The number found next to the minus sign specifies the amount players need to wager to be awarded $100 in profit. For example, -155 odds indicate a bet of $155 needs to be placed in order to take home $100 in profit.

    Underdogs are accompanied by a plus (+) sign. The number following the plus sign represents the amount of profit that would be realized if a player placed a $100 bet. For example, +170 odds tell us that a winning $100 bet would result in a player profiting $170.

    Odds are commonly viewed in decimals and fractions as well. Use our odds calculator to quickly cycle between American, decimal, and fractional odds.

    What you can't bet on in Iowa

    While Iowans are able to place a wager on nearly any sporting event — locally and internationally — there are a few no-gos in the Hawkeye State.

    Covers miss icon

    Politics

    Iowa law forbids political betting of any kind. Discussing Iowa caucus betting odds around the water cooler is fine, but that’s as far as you can take things. You won't find any politics when browsing new markets at Iowa sports betting sites.

    Covers miss icon

    NFL Draft

    The NFL Draft is the league's signature offseason event, but Iowa is one of a handful of U.S. states to outlaw NFL Draft wagering.

    Covers miss icon

    esports

    Esports betting has not yet been legalized in Iowa, though there does seem to be some momentum building here. Rep. Bobby Kaufmann has sponsored a bill that would regulate esports betting, along with pro sports drafts, and player awards.

    Covers miss icon

    Awards shows

    Much-hyped celebrity and pop-culture events, such as the Academy Awards, are off-limits at Iowa sportsbooks.

    What about Iowa college sports?

    Iowa sports bettors may place wagers on any college team in the country. However, individual player prop bets involving in-state schools are not permitted.

    Iowa sports betting handle

    Iowa saw a major boost in sports betting following the implementation of full remote registration. After modest earnings in 2020, the state’s monthly handle ballooned to $149.5M in January 2021 — a 42% increase over December’s total.

    Iowa surpassed the $1 billion mark in total sports bets early in 2021 and is on pace to double that number in the coming months. In January 2022, the state recorded its first instance of surpassing $300 million in monthly sports betting handle.

    Our team tracks and reports on sports betting revenue generated from each legal market, including their respective monthly handle and hold. Iowa’s sportsbooks have posted the following numbers to date:

    Home team advantage: Iowa sports

    Whether they’ve grown up on Vikings football or reveled in the triumphs of the 2016 World Series-winning Cubs, there is no questioning Iowans’ fandom and allegiances to their favorite clubs.

    Cheering on your team is one thing, but placing bets at Iowa sportsbooks is an entirely different story. Always be sure to remain objective when placing sports wagers, as these allegiances can quickly cloud your judgment.

    Iowa sports betting law

    When Gov. Reynolds put her signature on Bill SF-617 on May 13, 2019, the Iowa market launch followed in August of that year.

    Here's how the legal Iowa sports betting market looks in 2023:

    • The Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission (IRGC) is responsible for the regulation of sports wagering.

    • Only individuals 21 and older can legally wager on sports in Iowa.

    • Iowa does not limit the number of casinos or racinos permitted in the state.

    • 19 casinos/racinos are currently operational and each is authorized three online skins for a total of 57 sites.

    • Iowa gambling winnings are treated as taxable income at 6.75%.

    • Operators must submit 0.75% of gross gaming revenue (GGR) for charitable causes.

    • Iowa law does not allow esports betting or wagers on the NFL Draft.

    • Betting on college sports is allowed, except wagers on Iowa-based teams.

    Other types of gambling

    Iowa is home to 23 licensed casinos and four tribal casinos. Two of the state’s casinos offer live racing.

    casino Casino

    Each of Iowa’s commercial, riverboat, and tribal casinos offers players the full range of table games, slots, and more.

    Real money online casinos are illegal in Iowa, as they were not included in Bill SF-617. National brands Chumba Casino and LuckyLand Slots offer a limited number of casino games and use “sweeps coins” to remain legally compliant in Iowa.

    poker Poker

    With 421 tables in the state, there’s no shortage of poker action in Iowa.

    For those looking for an online alternative, Global Poker’s sweepstakes model remains the only option. Iowa has yet to make any progress on an online poker bill.

    Horse and jockey Horse racing

    Live and simulcast horse racing can be found at Iowa’s lone horse racing site — Prairie Meadows. A number of off-track betting sites can be found throughout the state as well. Pari-mutuel bets can be placed online in Iowa at the best horse racing betting sites.

    Iowa is also home to one greyhound racetrack — Iowa Greyhound Park.

    Horse and jockey Daily fantasy sports

    Daily fantasy sports (DFS) has been a popular option in Iowa since the state passed its sports betting law in May 2019. DraftKings, the first operator to enter the market, was joined by fellow industry titan FanDuel soon after.

    Responsible gaming in Iowa

    The Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission has taken preventative measures to ensure programs and resources are available for individuals who feel as if their gambling activity is getting out of hand. Helplines, treatment centres, and self-exclusion lists have all been established to curb the effects of problem gambling in Iowa.

    Fifteen of Iowa’s 19 licensed casinos now offer self-exclusion programs. Not all online sportsbooks offer these programs, but sites do provide players with a number of options to manage their betting activity. These tools include deposit and betting limits, timeouts, and self-assessments.

    Legal online sportsbooks also allow users to place a wide range of restrictions on themselves. Players can set deposit and betting limits or permanently join the self-exclusion list.
