What West Virginia Sports Wagering Act 2018 (HB 2751) - Lottery Commission Licensing and 10% Tax requires
West Virginia House Bill 2751 (signed March 27, 2018) added Article 22D to Chapter 29 of the West Virginia Code, authorising sports wagering regulated by the West Virginia Lottery Commission. West Virginia was among the first states to legalise sports wagering after Murphy v. NCAA (2018) and launched retail sports betting at The Greenbrier on August 30, 2018. The tax rate is 10% of adjusted gross sports wagering revenue for both retail and online/mobile wagering. The minimum age is 21. Licensed lottery facilities may each offer up to three online/mobile sports wagering platform partnerships. West Virginia was also among the earliest states to launch licensed mobile sports betting, with online platforms launching in late 2018.
