How to Sign Up for a DE Online Gambling Account

Signing up for Delaware’s legal online gambling sites follows Delaware Lottery regulations(7). New players and punters must provide:

• Email Address.
• Date of Birth.
• Username.
• Secure password.
• Last four digits of Social Security Number.
• Proof of Identity (US Driver’s License, Passport, State ID, or Military ID).
• Proof of Residency (Utility bill, Bank statement, Lease agreement).

The KYC (Know Your Customer) process verifies identity, age, and location through automated checks or document uploads (e.g., driver’s license, passport). Players must be 21 years of age or older, or located in Delaware or a state with a Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement (MSIGA)(8), to participate in real-money play.

Gambling Age Requirements in Delaware

The legal gambling age is 21 for online and casino-based gambling, with some offline activities allowing 18+. The Delaware Lottery enforces strict age verification.

DE Player Eligibility and Specific Restrictions

Anyone 21+ physically located in Delaware or an MSIGA state (Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan, West Virginia) can participate, regardless of residency. US visitors with a valid ID are eligible. Restrictions include:

• The Delaware Lottery’s self-exclusion list prohibits participation in all licensed gambling activities(9).
• Gambling operator employees are generally barred from wagering, though horse racing may be an exception. If you’re an employee within the gambling industry and you wish to gamble in Delaware, online or offline, consult with your employer’s HR for specific policies.
• Persons on the involuntary exclusion list are prohibited from participating in offline or online gambling(10).
• Betting on Delaware college teams is prohibited, but other college sports betting is allowed(11).

DE Geolocation Requirements

Real-money online gambling requires players and devices to be within Delaware or an MSIGA state. The Delaware Lottery requires the use of geolocation technology (GPS, Wi-Fi, IP tracking) from GeoComply to verify locations on desktops, laptops, and mobile devices, ensuring compliance on licensed platforms(12).

Different Forms of Legal Online Gambling Available in Delaware

Delaware’s online gambling includes real-money games of chance:

Online Casino Gambling

Three casinos with attached race tracks, operated by Scientific Games/888 Holdings, offer ~150 slots (including 14 progressive jackpots), table games (blackjack, roulette, baccarat, video poker), and no live dealer options. The 888 platform provides a user-friendly and consistent experience across all sites.

Online Sports Betting

Online sports betting launched in December 2023 via BetRivers(13), the Delaware Lottery’s exclusive mobile partner. It covers NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and international events, with pre-match, live betting, prop bets, and futures, but excludes Delaware college teams.

Online Poker

Online poker is available at all three casinos via dedicated apps. The 2014 MSIGA enables Delaware players to compete with those in Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan, and West Virginia, enhancing player pools. Welcome bonuses are offered for poker players.

Other Forms of Online Gambling in Delaware

• Bingo and Keno: Not available online; offline options are available for players 18 and older at select retailers and halls.
• Lottery: State-run draws for 18+, including Powerball, Mega Millions, and scratch cards, but not available online.
• Horse Racing: Online pari-mutuel betting is available via platforms like TwinSpires for 18+ players.
• Daily Fantasy Sports(14): Legal and available for 18+ players via platforms like DraftKings, allowing contests on NFL, NBA, MLB, and more with cash prizes.

Deposits and Withdrawals When Gambling Online in DE

Delaware’s licensed operators offer secure, DGE-approved payment methods. Deposits are instant; withdrawal times vary depending on the method.

“PayPal is the go-to for fast, secure transactions, and convenient transactions, but ACH works well for larger withdrawals. Forget about cryptocurrencies because they’re not permitted.”
