Betway Sportsbook was founded in 2006 in Malta and eventually established offices in Malta, the United Kingdom, Denmark, Spain, Italy, Germany, Sweden, Mexico, Ireland, Portugal, France, Argentina, South Africa, Poland, and the United States.

The company made its entry into the U.S. market in April 2021, starting with Colorado and expanding quickly to reach a total of nine states, including Ohio.

By 2024, Betway Sportsbook was live in Arizona, Indiana, Louisiana, Ohio, Virginia, Colorado, Iowa, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Betway Sportsbook Ohio went live on January 1, 2023, alongside all of the initially licensed online sportsbooks in Ohio, as sports betting-focused bill HB29 became active. However, it closed in Ohio on July 31, 2024.
