Sports Betting in Ohio
Sports betting is legal in Ohio starting on January 1, 2023. The law allows for the Casino Control Commission to issue 25 initial online “Type A” licenses and up to 40 ‘Type B’ retail licenses. Lottery Commission can issue ’Type C‘ licenses that will allow Ohioans to place certain types of wagers at lottery terminals located within certain liquor permit establishments. Professional sports organizations, racinos and casinos were given statutory preference to get a sports gaming license. The OCCC is working hard to approve licenses before the new year.
