The state of Michigan has started offering sports betting services for its people now. The state has joined the other 20 states in the country that are offering sports betting in their areas. The sports fans in Michigan are very happy with this decision taken by the authorities.

On December 20, 2019, Michigan’s governor Gretchen Whitmer had signed three separate bills regarding betting being included in the Lawful Sports Betting Act, Fantasy Contests Consumer Protection Act and the Lawful Internet Gaming Act. All these acts are now regulating sports betting in Michigan.

Michigan Gaming Control Board will issue sports betting licenses through Lawful Sports Betting Act. The Lawful Internet Gaming Act will allow people to get online gambling permit under the boundaries of fantasy sports.

People of Michigan can carry offline and online sports betting after the implementation of these three bills. These bills are also giving many new options that come under sports betting. As neighboring states of Michigan are already offering sports betting, the state has to follow their sports betting trends to generate revenue.

Currently Michigan is healing from the past global economic crisis. It is recovering quickly and the implementation of these acts related to sports betting will allow good economic growth in the state. Many other states in the US are generating good profit from sports betting and Michigan is also expected to do so.

At the moment, New Jersey’s sports betting market is generating good revenue in the country. In 2018, it had generated $487 million.
