Soon, Wisconsin will be home to a competitive land-based sports betting industry. Multiple tribal gaming operators have signed amended gaming agreements with the state to offer sports betting on tribal property.
Wisconsin is home to several retail sportsbooks now, and more are on the way. The Potawatomi Nation and Sokaogon Chippewa Community have also signed amended gaming compacts with the state to open sportsbooks. Croix Chippewa Indians signed a similar agreement in the final days of 2021 to offer retail sports betting at their casinos. The Department of the Interior (DOI) approved the amended gaming compact, and Wisconsin’s first retail sportsbook opened in November 2021 at the Oneida Casino in Green Bay. Sportsbooks may accept wagers on amateur and collegiate events, excluding games involving Wisconsin colleges. The amendments cleared the tribe to install retail sportsbooks in Wisconsin on tribal land and accept mobile wagers from patrons physically located on casino property. Sports betting in Wisconsin was legalized in mid-2021 via amendments to states gaming compact with the Oneida Nation.
