Is online sports betting legal in Florida?

Statewide mobile betting has been live in Florida since 2023. You must be 21 or older and physically inside the state when you bet; the apps check your location every time.

Florida’s only legal sportsbook is Hard Rock Bet, run by the Seminole Tribe under its gaming compact.

Sportsbooks in Florida

On vigged, Hard Rock Bet is ranked for Florida: its price is the ones best price, +EV and arbitrage use when your state is set to FL. Kalshi joins it as a book (on by default) on a side with $2,000 available at its price.

Not licensed in Florida: DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars Sportsbook, theScore Bet and Circa Sports. With your state set, vigged shows their prices, unranked.

Offshore sites such as Bovada are not licensed in Florida or any other state: no regulator holds your deposits or settles disputes. vigged shows offshore prices unranked and never links to them.

Prediction markets: Kalshi and Polymarket US

Kalshi offers sports event contracts in Florida to adults 18+. It is a federally regulated exchange (CFTC), not a state-licensed sportsbook, which is why it can operate alongside the sportsbooks.

Polymarket US, the CFTC-regulated app Polymarket launched in late 2025, lists Florida as eligible; access is opening by waitlist. It is a separate order book from Polymarket’s international site, which does not serve US users.

How they differ from a sportsbook: you buy a contract that pays $1 if the outcome happens, priced in cents (58¢ is a 58% chance), from other traders rather than a bookmaker. Fees take the place of vig, the minimum age is 18 rather than 21, and the legal fight over sports contracts is still moving.

Nearby states

None of Florida’s neighbors (Alabama and Georgia) has statewide online betting either. Apps go by where you are standing, not where you live: visitors can bet in Florida, and Florida residents can bet across the line.
