Circa Sports is licensed in Kentucky but not yet taking bets, and another service provider licensee, Kambi, is working with retail sportsbook operators.
In practice, though, the state has eight licensed operators of mobile wagering apps and sites, and only seven are live. A roomy marketīy law, Kentucky could have as many as 27 online sportsbooks. “As of the deadline, no additional licensees have submitted service provider applications for conducting sports wagering activities in Kentucky,” KHRC sports wagering director Hans Stokke said. Members of the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission (KHRC) met Monday and approved nine sports wagering service provider permits for 2024, all nine of which were authorized on a temporary basis earlier this year.
The roster of online sports betting licensees in the Bluegrass State will remain unchanged for the foreseeable future.
