The process to launch online Maryland sports betting continues to draw on with no official launch date, but with some clues as to possibilities.
A timeline presented Wednesday to the Sports Wagering Application Review Commission suggests an online MD sports betting launch is “possible” by the Super Bowl. That goal requires hitting several important regulatory goals in the coming weeks.
Regardless, Marylanders will not be betting online by Gov. Larry Hogan‘s desired start date of Sept. 8 to capture a full season of NFL betting. Hogan has expressed his displeasure with the SWARC’s bureaucratic process several times.
Maryland voters approved sports betting nearly two years ago, Hogan signed legislation in spring 2021 and retail betting started in December 2021.
