Mississippi breaks its monthly betting handle record this October with $83.5 million in wagers. This is 52.3% higher than September’s $45.8 million. It is also 36.5% higher than that of October 2020’s handle of $61.2 million. The highest handle the state previously held was $67.7 million back in January. Many factors contribute to this, so its best to pay attention to sports betting and eSports betting news regularly.

Mississippi bettors had a lot of wagers to make in October. In the NFL, there were 5 betting Sundays. For those unaware, the bulk of NFL games happen on Sundays, so the extra week really pulled in more action. The same goes for college football, where there are 5 betting Saturdays brimming with wagers across many a sports betting software and platform.

Mississippi Sports Betting

Currently, the Magnolia state offers both retail and mobile sports betting. However, online sports betting is only allowed if you are within the property of a licensed casino. So despite the accessibility and convenience that mobile sports betting offers, residents are still somewhat limited in terms of access. Legislators do acknowledge this, and may put forth legislation to expand mobile sports betting in the state. It won't happen soon, but we will read about them in sports betting news as soon as it happens.

Mississippi is not the only state whose sportsbooks are breaking records. You also have Tennessee, Indiana, Iowa, and Oregon setting new records. Given how there are a lot of games that you can offer in your sportsbook now, you should start to promote your sportsbook with social media and get more players in your online sportsbook.
