Follow along and we’ll help you create a BetRivers account with just a few easy-to-follow steps. You’ll be browsing the book and placing wagers in no time. Here we go:

• Step 1: Click on our designated BetRivers sign up link here, which will send you over to the BetRivers homepage.
• Step 2: You’ll see a large BetRivers graphic that also shows the details for the welcome bonus. Beneath it, you’ll see the ‘Join Now’ button. Push it.

• Step 3: Next, you’ll need to fill in some personal info on the ‘Join Now’ sign up form. Enter a screen name, email, choose your password. Be sure to enter the affiliate link unique to your state in the box. Once completed, click ‘continue’ to advance on. The next page will ask for details like your name, birthday, and address.

The federal government requires that you provide your SSN, but rest assured it will be protected by “the highest standards available.” Once finished, hit the ‘Complete’ button.

After you’ve created the account, you’ll receive some important pop-ups that will prompt you to install a geolocation plugin. You don’t have to do it on the spot, but you will eventually need to install it. No wagers can be placed until you download it, and prove you’re inside the state you’re going to bet in.

Funding Your BetRivers Account

The last thing you need to do before placing online bets is make a deposit to the account – you’ll need some ammo to wager with. You can find the ‘Cashier’ button in the top right corner, and from there you can select any of the available options. It’s important to keep in mind that while there is significant overlap, some may be regionally specific. New Jersey bettors may not have the same choices as those in Indiana. Common choices include:

• Online Banking
• PayNearMe (you can use PayNearMe at 7Eleven, Family Dollar, CVS, and other retail stores)
• Cash at the Casino Cage

When it comes to cashing out, you can also request a check via mail. In some states BetRivers operates as an online-only skin, and doesn’t have a retail sportsbook presence. Therefore, the ‘cash at the casino cage’ option may not be available.

Submitting a Wager

Now it’s time to place a bet. Navigate over to the BetRivers Sportsbook homepage and have a look. You’ll see a large menu on the left side of the page that lists all available sports or competitions available for betting. Front and center you’ll see the ‘Popular’ tab that will show the most anticipated upcoming games. While most books will show the spread, point total, and moneyline, of these prominent matches, BetRivers just gives you the latter up front. Select the ‘More Wagers’ button next to the event to see all of the potential bets.

Once you’ve found the right wager, click it, and you’ll see a convenient betting slip pop up at the bottom of the page. Enter the amount of the wager, and select the green ‘Place bet’ button.

After adding more than one item to the bet slip it will automatically give you the choice to bundle them together as a parlay or round robin.

More About BetRivers, Active States

BetRivers first began online sports betting and casino operation in New Jersey in 2018 under the PlaySugarHouse name, which was also used by its Philadelphia-area casino. In 2019, Rush Street announced that it would be rebranding SugarHouse to Rivers Casino Philadelphia. The table below includes the states where you can legally wager with BetRivers.

Things to Keep in Mind

Without a federal ban standing in the way, all states are eligible to pursue sports betting regulation. However, they don’t have to do it the same way. Some states may require in person registration, some restrict bets on college, and some may not allow online betting at all. Below we’ll breakdown the notable differences in the BetRivers experience in the areas that it operates.

Delaware

BetRivers is the first sportsbook to launch in the state of Delaware. Through a partnership with Sugar House Interactive, the sportsbook launched in 2024.

Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania bettors have the unique option of choosing between both SugarHouse, and BetRivers for their online play. Both brands are alive and well in the Keystone State. It’s unclear if they will both eventually merge under the BetRivers name, but for the time being they’ve paid for two licenses and it seems they’ll continue to use both. Official BetRivers retail sportsbooks are available at both Rivers Casino Pittsburgh, and Rivers Casino Philadelphia.

Indiana

Rush Street Gaming does not own or operate a casino in Indiana, so it elected to partner with an existing property, the French Lick Resort, to gain a presence in the state. Using the French Lick license, online wagering is available throughout Indiana via BetRivers. However, it’s not currently possible to deposit or withdraw in person at the casino – bettors will have to stick to online banking methods.

Illinois

BetRivers was the first retail sportsbook (March 9, 2020) and the first online sportsbook (June 18, 2020) to launch in Illinois. It is now possible to register online and wager with BetRivers from anywhere in the state.

As far as Illinois sportsbook restrictions are concerned, most markets and events are fair game with the exception of in-state college teams. To protect amateur athletes from unwanted pressures, all Illinois-based colleges are off limits.

Colorado

BetRivers launched its online operation in Colorado on May 1, 2020. Colorado is home to a very diverse set of betting options, with nearly 50 specific events on its initial catalog. Generally speaking, if you can think of it – chances are you can bet it in CO. College props are the only notable market that will be off-limits.

Michigan

BetRivers was one of the first movers in Michigan, and brings their full arsenal of betting options, promotions and loyalty rewards along with them. Michigan really does not have any restrictions on betting options so simply find the bet you want and place your bets.

Virginia

BetRivers launched in Virginia in January 2021, and is partnered with Rivers Casino Portsmouth in order to offer online sports betting. Rivers Casino Portsmouth This means that all banking must be done online. Virginia does have rules against betting on in-state collegiate teams, so you may have to travel out of state to place that UVA futures bet.

Arizona

BetRivers surprised everyone by announcing they were entering the Arizona market by partnering with the Arizona Rattlers. The most common reaction was: the Arizona who? Turns out, there is an indoor football league, and the Rattlers are one of the best teams in said league. As a professional sports franchise, the Rattlers qualified for an AZ sports betting license and partnered with BetRivers.

Louisiana

BetRivers arrived in Louisiana with a Boom, partnering with Boom Entertainment for online access in the state. Puns aside, being in Louisiana shows that BetRivers sees itself as one of top operators in the country and will do all they can to be in every state with legal online sports betting. This is good news for bettors, because BetRivers is one of the better sportsbooks out there right now.

West Virginia

The Mountaineer state was actually one of the first states to legalize mobile sports betting. It has quietly become a sizable industry, with a handful of operators doing respectable business. BetRivers is late to the party, but they will definitely make a strong entry, betting that their industry-leading app will be popular among the bettors of West Virginia. BetRivers has partnered with the Mountaineer Casino in an online-only arrangement.

New Jersey

On August 18, 2022, BetRivers replaced the SugarHouse brand in New Jersey. Both are owned by RSI and look similar, so the only real change was the name on the app. BetRivers is the online skin of Monmouth Park Racetrack in NJ.
