📅 December 1, 2025*
Missouri legal sports betting launches
📅 November 17, 2025
Pre-registration, account creation, and deposits go live in Missouri betting apps
📅 September 2025
Underdog Sportsbook secures Missouri online market access through a partnership with the Kansas City Royals. Underdog plans to launch in December if all goes well.
📅 May 2025
The application window closes for any operators who requested to set up their sportsbook in Missouri.
📅 March 2025
An emergency ruleset for sports betting is rejected, meaning that the launch of online sportsbooks in MO is delayed until fall. It's a frustrating setback for prospective Missouri bettors.
📅 November 2024
Missouri voters narrowly pass Amendment 2 with 50.1 percent of the votes, according to unofficial election results. This approval allowed the state to move forward with creating regulation frameworks and issuing licenses to sports betting operators, pivotal steps in the legalization process.
📅 October 2024
The state launches public awareness campaigns to educate Missouri residents about the new sports betting laws and responsible gambling practices.
📅 September 2024
Missouri gubernatorial candidates on the campaign trail express their support for the proposed sports betting bill. The growing political support for betting leads many to believe that the finish line is in sight.
📅 February 2024
HB2311 successfully passes out of a special committee with a 5-2 vote. It's a massive forward motion for sports betting in Missouri.
📅 October 2023
The capital city of Jefferson City, MO receives 16 new sports betting initiative proposals. This gives plenty of prospective Missouri bettors hope, as it greatly increases the chances of pushing sports betting legalization onto the November 2024 ballot.
📅 May 2022
Missouri sports betting once again fails to pass before the conclusion of the legislative session. Lawmakers missed the proverbial shot clock, with talks stalling yet again due to specific details and inclusions within the bill.
Lawmakers did come close, however. They spent hours discussing HB 2502, but the long at-bat still ended in a strikeout.
📅 April 2022
Sen. Denny Hoskins filibusters in support of the legalization of sports betting in Missouri, but it proves fruitless. HB 2502 swings and misses, with VLTs continuing to serve as a source of dissent among lawmakers.
📅 May 2021
Like many other states that still currently prohibit sports betting, the Missouri Senate failed to approve sports betting before the end of the 2021 legislative session.
The biggest rift caused by the initial sports betting bill? The inclusion of VLTs (video lottery terminals). Lawmakers squabbled about this particular part of the bill, ultimately leading to a negotiation stall-out.
