Guide To Online Sportsbooks Oregon

To legally wager on sports in Oregon you previously had to place your bet in-person at one tribal casino with a sportsbook in Oregon. That changed Oct. 16.

The Oregon Lottery, which oversees betting in the state, launched its first mobile app, “Scoreboard,” on Oct. 16. In doing so, it makes Oregon the western-most state with mobile betting. The lottery had selected SBTech as its designated vendor.

With the start of online sports betting sites, any eligible bettor in the state 21 years or older can participate. But you won’t be able to bet on the state’s popular college teams outside of licensed Oregon sportsbooks at Native American casinos.

Oregon became the 12th state legal sports betting and just the eighth with a state-wide mobile and online platform.

In addition to the Oregon Lottery’s Scoreboard app, bets can be placed in person at Native American casinos. So far, Chinook Winds casino in Lincoln City is the only casino doing so, but more are expected to follow.

Is Sports Betting Legal in Oregon?

Yes, but the options are limited to the Scoreboard app and the tribal casino, Chinook Winds, which opened a sportsbook in Oregon in August 2019. The state had hoped to have its app up and running in time for the start of the 2019 NFL season, but did not have it ready until mid-October.

Oregon sports betting was live for the 2019 NFL season at Chinook Winds.

Down the road, you can expect sport betting options to appear on lottery terminals in selected locations, especially now that the lotter has launched its app.

Why Did Oregon Have A Partial Exemption?

Even though Oregon has limited offerings, it was one of four states (along with Nevada, Delaware and Montana) that had a partial exemption from the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA), the federal ban on sports betting that took effect in 1992. The partial exemption was in place because the Oregon Lottery began offering NFL parlay bets in 1989 through a lottery game called Sports Action.

Sports Action was discontinued in 2007 because of the NCAA’s continued opposition to the game even though betting on college sports was not an option. When the lottery disbanded the game, the NCAA soon named Portland as a college tournament site.

Although sports betting is legal in Oregon, you still can’t bet on college games via a mobile sports betting app. You can still wager on college games at certain brick-and-mortar OR sportsbooks on tribal lands.

What to Consider When Choosing Oregon Betting Sites

There are not a lot of options to choose from in Oregon because it's run by the state lottery, but here are some things to look for when considering placing a bet on the lottery app or at a tribal casino:

  • User Experience: Some gambling companies put a high value on user experience while others simply don’t. Some brands offer apps and sites that are easy to use and work well, including visually, on your mobile device. Do a little bit of research at what’s available in Oregon to see what will work best for you.
  • Free Bets, Bonuses & More: Online sportsbooks usually offer free bets, bonuses and more, and it is no different in Oregon. There are betting requirements to fulfill, but a free bet could be worth it in Oregon.
  • Sports and Odds: Does the casino sportsbook and lottery app offer the sports and sporting events you want to bet on? It could be a international soccer or horse racing you want to bet on. Does it have those choices?

    Once you find what you want to bet on, check out the odds. You can go to an odds comparison site and see how the odds stack up.
