Online gambling in Wyoming: what is legal
Wyoming legalised online sports betting from 1 September 2021, regulated by the Gaming Commission for players aged 18 and over. Online casino games and online poker are illegal, and no bill to legalise them has passed. In May 2025 the Commission said sweepstakes sites are unlicensed and operating illegally; lawmakers are weighing a ban for 2027. WyoLotto sells tickets only through retailers.
