INSIDECASINO.USWhat does Arizona law say about online casinos?
Arizona has not legalized online casinos. Online sports betting is legal only through licensed operators, and that license does not cover casino games.
Who regulates gambling in Arizona?
The Arizona Department of Gaming regulates gaming in Arizona and issues cease-and-desist orders to unlicensed online operators. A July 10, 2026 round named five operators, including ClubWPT and Bookmaker.
Are offshore casinos legal in Arizona?
Offshore casinos hold no Arizona license, so no Arizona agency checks their games, payouts or complaints.
Are sweepstakes casinos legal in Arizona?
Arizona has no law that bans sweepstakes casinos by name, and reports differ on how far enforcement goes. The Department of Gaming has sent orders to sweepstakes brands including Stake.us, Modo and Pulsz, so Arizona treats at least some of them as unlawful.

Yes. Arizona's casinos are tribal casinos operating under compacts with the state. Sources give different counts, so we do not state a number here.
What are the rules in another state?
Each state sets its own online casino rules. Pick a state to see its status, its regulator and the date we last checked it.
