Minnesota Sports Betting
State Market Snapshot
Market Notes
- Handle and growth: No legal sports betting market exists in Minnesota. No regulated handle or revenue data is available. Bettors rely on offshore platforms, Daily Fantasy Sports, and prediction markets.
- Market split: n/a — No legal retail or mobile sportsbooks operate in the state.
- Hold and tax: n/a — No tax revenue is generated from regulated sports betting.
- Regulatory note: Sports betting remains illegal in Minnesota. A bill that passed the Senate in 2025 stalled in the House due to disagreements over tribal exclusivity, racetrack inclusion, and revenue sharing. No new legislation advanced in the 2026 session. Prospects for legalization remain uncertain. Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) and federally regulated prediction markets (e.g., Kalshi) continue to operate in a legal gray area. The Attorney General’s office actively monitors offshore operators.
