Can Bally Bet Hold Its Own in Heavyweight NY Sports Betting Market?
- Bally Bet was one of the first nine sportsbooks to receive an online sports betting license in New York
- Owned and operated by the legendary Bally’s Corporation, Bally Bet New York is set to make a splash in this emerging market
- Bally Bet New York and other online NY sportsbooks are launching soon
The Bally Bet sportsbook is a brand that’s familiar to some and unheard of to others, but this acclaimed platform will soon be a household name in the New York online sports betting market.
As the sports betting platform of the Bally’s Corporation brand, Bally Bet New York will bring a wealth of experience to sports bettors in the Empire State. There should be no doubting Bally Bet’s ability to compete with other sportsbooks when mobile New York sports betting launches in the coming weeks.
Here’s why Bally Bet New York will be a go-to choice for many NY sports bettors.
A Powerful Sportsbook Platform Backed by a Renowned Betting Company
Bally’s Corporation was founded in 2004, and even though they’re relatively new to the US betting scene, Bally Bet has quickly grown into a popular choice for sports bettors.
They’re starting to make a name for themselves in the US sports betting market. One example of this is their official sports betting partnership with the NHL, signed in February 2021.
Bally Bet is only operating in three US states right now, but that’s quickly changing as they rapidly grow into new markets.
Bally Bet States
While the Bally Bet sportsbook is currently only operating in Colorado, Iowa, and Virginia, they’re quickly expanding into emerging markets like New York.

Bally’s Corporation operates 14 casinos across 10 states, and while none of them are in New York, that shouldn’t slow them down when mobile New York sports betting gets underway. The launch of mobile sports betting is going to be a total gamechanger for wagering in the Empire State, and Bally Bet has one of the best platforms in the industry thanks to their Bet.Works technology.
Bet.Works and the Bally Bet Mobile App
The Bet.Works platform was acquired by Bally’s Corporation for $125 million in November 2020. Bet.Works features proprietary technology that makes the Bally Bet mobile sportsbook app one of the most reliable on the market.
The Bally Bet mobile app is available for Android and iOS, and it’s going to be a big factor in helping Bally Bet compete in the emerging NY sports betting market. Combine that with the huge new customer promos available from Bally Bet, and there’s little doubt New Yorkers will be flocking to register with this premier sportsbook.
Bally Bet Sign-Up Promos
Bally Bet New York is expected to offer their two most lucrative promos to customers registering with the sportsbook:
- $100 Free Bet Promo
- $550 Risk-Free First Bet
The $100 free bet promo will automatically be added to your account when you sign up with Bally Bet. Then, place your first bet, and if it happens to lose Bally Bet will refund you with site credit up to $550.
These promos are going to be very competitive in the online New York sports betting market. DraftKings New York will bring their $1,050 in welcome promos, FanDuel New York is expected to launch with their $1,000 risk-free bet promo, and BetMGM New York will match that with their own $1,000 risk-free bet promo.
New customers can easily unlock these promos by completing the registration process with Bally Bet New York when it becomes available.
Bally Bet New York and Other New York Betting Sites Ready to Launch
The Bally Bet sportsbook was one of nine betting sites to receive the first online sports betting licenses from the New York State Gaming Commission. They’re expected to go-live on day one of mobile NY wagering, and many New Yorkers are expected to download the Bally Bet app to check out everything they have to offer.
The other licensed online New York sportsbooks include:
Online New York Sportsbooks
| New York Online Sportsbooks | Launch Date |
|---|---|
| FanDuel Sportsbook New York | Q4 2021 / Q1 2022 |
| DraftKings Sportsbook New York | Q4 2021 / Q1 2022 |
| BetMGM New York | Q4 2021 / Q1 2022 |

| BetRivers New York | Q4 2021 / Q1 2022 |
| Empire Resort | Q4 2021 / Q1 2022 |
While an official launch date is yet to be determined, each of these sportsbooks are expected to go-live on the first day of online New York sports betting.
This list may grow larger in the future, as more sportsbooks are eager to receive a license and launch their betting sites in this massive market. Either way, Bally Bet is expected to be extremely competitive amongst New York sportsbooks.
Online New York Sports Betting Will Be Available Soon
Anyone looking to download the Bally Bet app in New York won’t have to wait much longer.
"If the uniform (New York sports betting) start date is before the end of the year, I’d be ecstatic at that point. I’m an optimistic person, but I’m trying to be realistically optimistic and say sometime in January," Sen. Joseph Addabbo Jr. told @EliteSportsNY today.
