Prediction Markets in Arkansas

Status: contested. Last verified October 2, 2026.

Prediction markets such as Kalshi and Polymarket US are regulated federally by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. On October 23, 2025, Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin issued a formal opinion, requested by Senator Bryan King, concluding that a company like Kalshi offering sports event contracts without a state gaming licence would be operating illegal gambling under Arkansas law. Read the opinion

An attorney general opinion is not a court ruling or an enforcement order. We found no cease-and-desist letter or lawsuit by Arkansas against a prediction market as of October 2, 2026. Elsewhere, the Sixth Circuit (Ohio and Tennessee) and the Ninth Circuit (Nevada) have ruled for the states, while the Third Circuit sided with Kalshi in New Jersey, so the Supreme Court may settle the question.

Prediction markets matter for matched betting because they do not limit winning traders. Check each app for current availability in Arkansas before you deposit.

Online Casinos in Arkansas

Online casinos are not legal in Arkansas. Casino gaming is limited to the state's licensed casinos. The Arkansas Racing Commission lists three active casino licensees: Oaklawn (Hot Springs), Southland (West Memphis) and Saracen (Pine Bluff). Racing Commission FAQ

In 2025, House Bill 1861 proposed legalizing online casino games through the three casinos and making it a felony to run an illegal online casino or sportsbook. The sponsor withdrew it on April 7, 2025. HB 1861 on the Arkansas Legislature site

Arkansas Sports Betting FAQ

Yes. Retail sports betting has been legal in Arkansas since July 1, 2019, and mobile betting since March 2022. The Arkansas Racing Commission regulates casino gaming, which includes sports wagering.

You must be 21 or older. Amendment 100 bars anyone under 21 from casino gaming, which includes sports wagering.

It is contested. In October 2025, the Arkansas Attorney General issued an opinion that Kalshi's sports contracts would be illegal gambling without a state licence. We found no enforcement action as of October 2, 2026. Check the Kalshi app for current availability in Arkansas.

Online sports betting is legal. Online casinos are not. A 2025 bill to legalize them was withdrawn.

Arkansas law has no provision that names offshore or online sportsbooks. Its general gambling statutes make it a violation, with a fine of $10 to $25, to bet money on any game of hazard or skill (Ark. Code § 5-66-113), and make it unlawful to receive or transmit sports information in Arkansas for the purpose of gaming (Ark. Code § 5-66-114). Only Arkansas's licensed casinos and their approved apps can legally take sports bets.
