BetMGM Casino Summary

BetMGM has teamed up well and is offering some good games on a solid online platform. We're very happy with the online experience we have had there, but we would like to see some games added to the app. The ability to switch between casino, poker, and sportsbooks betting is a huge win for us, as it will be for you if you like to keep a few pots simmering at the same time.

BetMGM online casino also has a good rewards system, with some massive kickbacks for long-time players and big spenders. They've recently improved their options for payments and with drawals, so that's good news.

The promotions are generally decent. The current 20x wage requirement we're seeing frequently right now lets the air out of the tires on many of the promotions, but that can reduce periodically, so keep your eyes peeled.

All in all, BetMGM is a major player in New Jersey's online casino market, and one that we recommend you try out!
