Ohio is quickly becoming one of the biggest states in the U.S. for sports betting handle.
WynnBET has applied for, and been granted, a license to operate in Ohio. Though the bookmaker hasn’t launched yet, we’ve seen how that company has performed in other states well enough to write this WynnBET Sportsbook Review.
Using those other states as a guide, we’ll walk you through how to get set up with a WynnBET account, list the traits and features you can expect on the platform, and rate the bookmaker’s overall performance.
Is WynnBET legal in Ohio?
Yes, WynnBET is legal in Ohio. The sportsbook obtained a license from the Ohio Casino Control Commission (OCCC) in January of 2023, but it has yet to begin operations in the state. When it does launch, it will become the 19th sportsbook in the Buckeye State.
WynnBET has not yet launched in Ohio, which means there is no promo available at this time. Once the sportsbook arrives in OH, we expect the promo to be a $100 bonus bet after users make a qualifying bet of at least $100, regardless of the bet’s outcome.

There isn’t a promo code to enter or an opt-in button to click. Account registration will take you 5-10 minutes at most, and it may even be quicker than that. Here’s what you’ll need to do:
Once those steps are completed, you’ll be able to place a deposit with your preferred banking method. Once you place a $100 bet, you will be awarded $100 in bet credit.

WynnBET app reviews from App Store and Google Play
Across each state-specific version, WynnBET averages a 4/5 rating in the Google Play Store and a 4.2/5 rating among iOS players. Android users mentioned they found the customer service to be helpful, though they did experience longer payout times than with other sportsbooks. Apple users cited the ease of use but did mention some complications at times with the geolocation technology.
A good chunk of negative reviews came from players who misunderstood the terms and conditions of their sign-up bonus or another promotional offering. As a reminder, you should always read the rules of any bonus offer carefully to ensure you are making eligible bets for the promotion.
WynnBET OH banking options
Most WynnBET banking options work immediately for a deposit and have a 3-5 business day disbursement period for withdrawals. While this list may vary slightly for OH bettors when WynnBET launches in the state, this list should give you a good idea of what to expect.

Our expert opinion of WynnBET Sportsbook
In our expert opinion, Ohio bettors will enjoy their WynnBET Sportsbook experience once the operator launches in the state. The customer support is top-notch, the app is great for new players and experienced gamblers alike, and the rewards program to provide bet credits for returning customers is an excellent benefit.
Good customer service is the key to any business's success. We were pleasantly surprised with the responsiveness and professionalism the WynnBET team showed while testing their support options for this review. The detailed FAQ pages are a great start for finding information, but the chat and phone services were quite helpful as well.
We’d like to see an expansion in the accepted payment options to include more e-wallet options like Venmo or Apple Pay. Additionally, live-streaming for in-play betting wouldn’t go amiss.
