Quick answer: Nevada bettors have access to 4 licensed sportsbooks, 3 CFTC-regulated prediction markets.

Licensed Sportsbooks

State-licensed regulated sportsbooks. Operator tax rate: 6.75%. Online betting legal since 2010.

Prediction Markets

Federally regulated by the CFTC. Trade event contracts on an exchange model — separate from state-licensed sportsbooks. Active enforcement: Nevada state court ordered Kalshi to halt sports event contracts on March 20, 2026. Litigation pending in the Ninth Circuit (oral arguments April 16, 2026).
