Ohio Governor Mike DeWine signed HB 29 in December 2021 legalizing sports betting, and the state went live with a universal launch on January 1, 2023. Unlike most states, Ohio coordinated a single launch date for all licensed operators, meaning roughly 16 mobile books opened simultaneously on New Year's Day 2023.
Ohio issues Type A (mobile), Type B (retail), and Type C (kiosk) licenses through the Ohio Casino Control Commission. In the FY24 state budget, Governor DeWine successfully pushed the tax rate from 10% to 20%, doubling operator obligations. Tax proceeds are split with roughly 98% allocated to the Sports Gaming Profits Education Fund and 2% to problem gambling services.
