During Super Bowl weekend, sportsbook app user check-ins surged over 22% year-over-year according to geolocation provider GeoComply. Yet North Carolinians lacked access to any legal in-state platforms and missed capitalizing on the event’s record betting engagement.
Fortunately, North Carolina sports betting debuts March 11th, allowing Tar Heel fans to participate in the online wagering craze surrounding next February’s Super Bowl 59 broadcast.
GeoComply supplies geolocation verification for many sports betting operators, confirming customers reside where wagering is permitted.
The 2023 Super Bowl saw a sizable 22.3% annual increase in these location check-ins, signaling massive interest in placing game bets through regulated sportsbook apps and sites. Additional newer markets like Massachusetts and Vermont contributed to the surge.
But with the showdown between Kansas City and San Francisco also representing Las Vegas’ first time hosting the marquee event, the weekend reflected a new high-water mark for legal American sports wagering engagement.
“The continued transition to the legal market set the stage for a historic first Super Bowl in Las Vegas, and the record-breaking results we saw did not disappoint,” remarked GeoComply CEO Anna Sainsbury.
Several impressive metrics underline last year’s groundswell around Super Bowl betting
Without a legal avenue available, some North Carolinians likely traveled out-of-state or used illegal offshore websites to access Super Bowl betting this February. Fortunately, those scenarios become obsolete once state-approved platforms launch here on March 11th.
When next year’s Super Bowl matchup takes place, North Carolina bettors will finally have access to place real-money wagers through safe regulated operators instead of cross-border or black market alternatives.
A slew of bet types should be available on North Carolina sportsbook apps for the big game:
With many sports fans only casually betting on the Super Bowl each year through informal office pools and squares contests, North Carolina apps offer easy access to get skin in the game.
The debut timing also means March Madness and the entire 2023 NFL season will already be available for legal betting as well.
