- Kansas lawmakers halted brand-new sportsbook license extensions up until 2026, hinting at possible regulatory changes that might impact its 6 legal operators after 2027.

- Missouri is set to launch legal mobile sportsbooks in late 2025, sports betting possibly reversing cross-border betting patterns as Kansas wagerers might head east.

- Future changes in Kansas could include a sole-operator model or tax walkings, impacting competitors and motivating bettors to seek options in Missouri.

Kansas sports betting background

Kansas introduced its very first legal mobile sportsbooks in 2022. Six books now take bets: BetMGM, Caesars, DraftKings, ESPN BET, Fanatics and FanDuel.

The capability to position legal bets in Kansas attracts bettors on the Missouri side of the Kansas City metro area to Kansas to bet, with some doing so most or almost every day of the week.

That could alter if Kansas lawmakers overthrow the existing regulatory structure. Sources tell Covers some lawmakers wish to increase the state's sports wagering tax profits, amongst the most affordable per capita of any of the 30 states with statewide legal mobile sportsbooks.

Kansas' likely reconsideration of its six-book legal sports betting wagering market next year will come after Missouri goes cope with as numerous as a lots books; if Kansas dramatically curtails its offerings, it could lead KS gamblers to position bets in MO, the opposite of the present pattern

The modifications might be as basic as a tax increase. It could also lead to a sole-source operator design some lawmakers are thinking about, one that might generate more direct profits for the state however potentially dislodge some or all of the six existing sportsbooks as soon as their licenses expire in Aug. 2027.

The legislation passed earlier this month only places a restriction until 2026, suggesting Kansas' current sportsbooks can take bets till their licenses expire the following year. Lawmakers may not even think about a significant modification to the regulative structure when they reconvene for the 2026 session, implying no perceptible impact for Sunflower State wagerers.

But the license extension restriction leaves the possibility for significant modifications that didn't seem practical weeks earlier.

Missouri sportsbooks prepare to introduce

The Kansas relocation comes as Missouri nears the launch of its legal sportsbooks.

Missouri's multi-year sports betting legalization push ended in Nov. 2024, when voters directly authorized a ballot procedure to bring legal retail and online sportsbooks to the state. The vote followed years of unsuccessful efforts to legislate sports betting in the legislature.

Missouri's legal sportsbooks are set to begin taking bets in the 4th quarter of 2025. There are also set to be almost two times as many betting alternatives in Missouri as Kansas.

FanDuel and DraftKings contributed more than $30 million to support the ballot procedure. The two U.S. market share leaders have, as anticipated, revealed plans to take bets in Missouri when accredited.

Other books consisting of BetMGM, BetRivers and Underdog also announced launch plans. Bet365 struck an offer with MLB's St. Louis Cardinals and also prepares to accept bets in the state.

Caesars, which opposed the tally measure over license allocation concerns, operates 3 Missouri casinos and is to release its online book in the state. Penn Entertainment (ESPN BET) and Bally's (Bally Bet) likewise operate Missouri casinos that give them immediate market access.

Other books consisting of Acid rock, reside in Illinois, could also pursue among approximately two-dozen prospective Missouri sports wagering licenses.

The wider selection of Show Me State wagering options might bring in Kansas gamblers in the Kansas City metro location to Missouri to put bets, reversing years of wagerer traffic going the opposite direction. This might accelerate if the Sunflower State reduces its sportsbook lineup, particularly if DraftKings and/or FanDuel can no longer accept bets.

Missouri citizens in the Kansas City city were the most ardent supporters of the sports betting ballot measure, which could highlight residents' interest in putting bets in their home state as soon as books go live.

Missouri's sports wagering lineup doubts ahead of the 2025 launch. Kansas' sportsbooks could change too in the occurring years.
