What's legal in each SEC state

Twelve states, very different answers. Novig, a federally regulated prediction market, is available in all twelve. Each page says what else is, and is not.

Texas

No sportsbook

Texas has no legal online or retail sportsbook; the 2025 legislative session ended without passing one, and the Legislature does not meet again until 2027.

Georgia has no legal sports betting of any kind; a 2026 legalization push failed again at the Capitol.

Alabama has no legal sportsbook, online or retail, and no lottery; a comprehensive gaming bill died in the Senate in 2024 and has not come back.

Mississippi allows sports betting only inside its casinos; mobile apps work only while you are on casino property, and statewide mobile bills have failed every year since 2024.

South Carolina has no legal sports betting; bills have been introduced each session and none has passed either chamber.

Oklahoma has no legal sports wagering; a tribal-compact deal is the only path and the state and tribes have not agreed on one.

Florida has legal online sports betting through a single app, Hard Rock Bet, under the Seminole Tribe's compact; no other sportsbook can operate in the state.
