This guide explains where FanDuel Sportsbook is available, how location restrictions work and what players should check before registering.

Sportsbook and casino availability should always be considered separately. A state that permits FanDuel Sportsbook does not necessarily permit FanDuel Casino.

The availability information below should therefore be used alongside the current FanDuel product and location information shown during registration.

FanDuel can offer regulated online gambling products only in jurisdictions where the relevant form of gambling is permitted and FanDuel is authorized to operate.

The current states and jurisdictions supported by FanDuel are listed below:

  • Alabama
  • Georgia
  • Minnesota
  • Missouri
  • Oklahoma
  • Texas
  • Wisconsin

Availability can differ between FanDuel Sportsbook and FanDuel Casino. Players should confirm that the specific product they want to use is available in their location before registering or depositing.

Eligible players in supported jurisdictions can use FanDuel Sportsbook to access betting markets across major US and international sports. The exact sports, leagues, markets and wager types available can vary according to location and the events currently being offered.

Common wager types can include moneylines, point spreads, totals, player props and parlays. Sports and competitions available through FanDuel can include:

  • MLB
  • NFL
  • College football
  • Tennis
  • Soccer
  • WNBA
  • PGA Tour and other golf events
  • UFC and other combat sports
  • NBA
  • NHL
  • College basketball
  • Motorsports
  • Cycling
  • Other sports and competitions offered in the player’s jurisdiction

Not every market is available for every event or in every jurisdiction. State regulations can restrict particular wager types, competitions or markets even where online sports betting itself is permitted.

FanDuel Casino Availability

FanDuel Casino has a more limited geographic footprint than FanDuel Sportsbook because regulated online casino gaming is available in fewer US states.

Where FanDuel Casino is available, eligible players can access categories including slots, blackjack, roulette, table games and live dealer games. The precise catalog can differ according to jurisdiction and can change as games are added or removed.

Casino players should therefore check FanDuel Casino availability separately rather than assuming that access to FanDuel Sportsbook also provides access to real-money casino gaming.

FanDuel can offer promotions to eligible new and existing customers, but the available promotions and their terms can differ according to product, jurisdiction and account eligibility.

The current sportsbook offer can be checked through the FanDuel promo code and welcome offer guide. Players should review the applicable terms before participating rather than assuming that an offer advertised for one FanDuel product or jurisdiction applies to another.

FanDuel Casino promotions should likewise be treated separately from sportsbook promotions. Casino rewards can include Casino Site Credit, Bonus Spins or other promotional formats where available, with individual eligibility, expiry and game restrictions applying.

Promotions do not remove the financial risk associated with gambling. Bonus Bets, Bonus Spins, Casino Site Credit and other promotional rewards can also be subject to restrictions that differ from cash funds.

Eligible players can register for FanDuel online. Identity and location verification form part of the process because FanDuel must confirm that customers satisfy the applicable regulatory requirements.

  1. Visit FanDuel from an eligible jurisdiction.
  2. Select the registration option and complete the requested account information.
  3. Create the required account credentials using accurate personal information.
  4. Complete the identity-verification process. FanDuel can request information needed to confirm identity, age and eligibility.
  5. Review and accept the applicable account terms and conditions.
  6. Complete any required location verification before attempting to place a real-money wager.

Additional verification can be required in some circumstances. Players should provide requested information only through legitimate FanDuel account and verification channels.

Why FanDuel Checks Your Location

Regulated online gambling is location dependent. FanDuel must therefore determine whether a player is physically present in a jurisdiction where the relevant FanDuel product is permitted.

Account registration and physical location are separate issues. A player can have an existing FanDuel account but still be unable to place wagers when physically located outside a jurisdiction where that product is available.

Players should enable the location permissions or verification services legitimately requested by FanDuel when using the sportsbook or casino.

How To Withdraw From FanDuel

Eligible withdrawal methods can vary according to jurisdiction, account status and previous payment activity. Players should check the FanDuel cashier for the options currently available to their account.

Depending on the account and location, withdrawal methods can include options such as:

  • Online banking
  • Eligible FanDuel payment-card services
  • PayPal
  • Venmo
  • Check, where available
  • Eligible retail withdrawal options in select jurisdictions

To request a withdrawal:

  1. Log in to the FanDuel account.
  2. Open the cashier and select the withdrawal option.
  3. Enter the requested withdrawal amount.
  4. Select an eligible withdrawal method displayed for the account.
  5. Follow the instructions presented by FanDuel to submit the request.

Processing times can differ according to the payment method and whether additional account or payment verification is required. The information displayed in the FanDuel cashier should be used for the current processing estimate rather than assuming every withdrawal follows the same timeframe.

Where Is FanDuel Not Available?

FanDuel is not available for every product in every US state. Sports betting, online casino gaming and daily fantasy sports are regulated differently, so availability should be checked on a product-by-product basis.

Rather than relying on a static list of unavailable states that can become outdated as laws, licenses and launches change, use the current FanDuel availability information above and confirm that the specific product is offered in the player’s physical location.

A state can also permit one FanDuel product without permitting another. In particular, FanDuel Sportsbook has a substantially broader US footprint than FanDuel Casino.

Why Is FanDuel Unavailable In My State?

FanDuel can accept real-money online sports or casino wagers only where the relevant activity is permitted and FanDuel has the authorization required to offer that product.

If online sports betting or online casino gaming has not been authorized in a state, FanDuel cannot simply begin offering the corresponding regulated product there.

Even after legislation changes, a launch is not necessarily immediate. Regulatory frameworks can require licensing, technical approval and other steps before an operator can begin accepting real-money wagers.

This is also why sportsbook and casino availability can differ significantly. A state may authorize online sports betting without authorizing online casino gaming.

Can A VPN Be Used To Access FanDuel From Another State?

A virtual private network should not be used to attempt to circumvent FanDuel’s location controls. Real-money gambling eligibility is determined by the player’s actual physical location and the applicable regulatory requirements.

Location-masking, remote-access or similar technology can interfere with geolocation verification and does not make wagering permissible from an otherwise ineligible jurisdiction.

Players should only attempt to place real-money wagers when physically located somewhere the relevant FanDuel product is legally available and FanDuel is authorized to offer it.

What If FanDuel Is Not Available In Your State?

If FanDuel is unavailable, the alternatives depend on the gambling laws and products permitted in the player’s state.

Some states have other regulated sportsbooks even where FanDuel itself is unavailable. In states without regulated online sports betting or online casino gaming, different entertainment models such as sweepstakes platforms may also exist, subject to their own eligibility rules and state restrictions.

BestOdds maintains separate guides to sweepstakes casinos and other gambling products so players can compare platforms that are relevant to their location.

Sweepstakes platforms should not be treated as equivalent to regulated real-money online casinos or sportsbooks. They operate under a different model and use their own virtual-currency, prize-redemption and eligibility rules.

No. FanDuel product availability varies by jurisdiction. Sportsbook, casino and other FanDuel products should be checked separately because they do not all have the same geographic availability.

Does FanDuel Sportsbook availability mean FanDuel Casino is also available?

No. FanDuel Sportsbook is available in more jurisdictions than FanDuel Casino. A player should confirm casino availability separately before attempting to participate in real-money casino gaming.

Can FanDuel be used while traveling?

Access to real-money wagering depends on physical location. An existing customer can therefore be unable to place wagers while traveling through a jurisdiction where the relevant FanDuel product is unavailable.

When will FanDuel become available in another state?

There is no universal timetable. Availability depends on state legislation, regulation, licensing and FanDuel’s decision and ability to launch the relevant product. A change in gambling law does not necessarily result in an immediate FanDuel launch.

Can a VPN be used to access FanDuel from an unsupported state?

No location-masking method should be used to circumvent FanDuel’s geolocation controls. Real-money wagering requires the player to satisfy the physical-location requirements applying to the relevant product.

How old do you have to be to use FanDuel?

The minimum age depends on the product and jurisdiction. Players should check the age requirement that applies to the FanDuel product in their location rather than assuming that one age threshold applies nationwide.

Where can the current FanDuel welcome offer be checked?

The current sportsbook promotion and its eligibility requirements can be checked through the FanDuel Sportsbook promo guide. Casino promotions have separate terms and should be checked through the relevant FanDuel Casino offer information.

Responsible Gambling

Sports betting and casino gaming involve financial risk. Set a gambling budget before wagering, do not chase losses and do not treat gambling as a source of income.

Promotions, boosts and other incentives do not guarantee a profit or remove the risk of losing money. Players should read the applicable terms and use responsible gambling controls where needed.
