Prediction Markets in Michigan

Status: blocked for sports contracts. Last verified October 2, 2026.

Prediction markets such as Kalshi and Polymarket US are regulated federally by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Michigan treats sports event contracts as unlicensed sports betting. In March 2026, Attorney General Dana Nessel and the Michigan Gaming Control Board sued Kalshi in state court. Attorney General announcement

On September 1, 2026, Ingham County Circuit Judge Rosemarie Aquilina issued a preliminary injunction barring Kalshi from any activity connected with sports wagering in Michigan. Kalshi must geofence Michigan users or face a $500,000 penalty for each day it fails to comply. Read the order

Polymarket and Robinhood sued Michigan in federal court to stop enforcement and lost: in June 2026 a federal judge in the Western District of Michigan denied Polymarket a preliminary injunction. SBC Americas report Robinhood then agreed to stop offering new sports contracts to Michigan customers while its appeal is pending. Legal Sports Report Michigan is in the Sixth Circuit, which ruled for Ohio and Tennessee on September 25, 2026 in KalshiEX LLC v. Schuler. Sixth Circuit opinion

Prediction markets matter for matched betting because they do not limit winning traders. Sports contracts are currently unavailable in Michigan. Check each app for current availability before you deposit.

Online Casinos in Michigan

Online casinos are legal in Michigan. Governor Gretchen Whitmer signed the Lawful Internet Gaming Act in December 2019, and licensed online casinos went live on January 22, 2021, the same day as online sportsbooks. The Michigan Gaming Control Board lists every approved online casino and sportsbook on its legal vs. illegal gaming page.

The Board treats unlicensed sites, including some sweepstakes casinos, as illegal. It has sent cease-and-desist letters to sweepstakes operators such as Stake.us and VGW LuckyLand. MGCB announcement The Sweepstakes Casino Overview explains how sweepstakes casinos work.

Offshore and unlicensed betting

Michigan law makes it a felony to offer online sports betting or online casino games in the state without a Michigan Gaming Control Board license. Both the Lawful Sports Betting Act (MCL 432.413) and the Lawful Internet Gaming Act (MCL 432.313) set a penalty of up to 10 years in prison, a fine of up to $100,000, or both. The Gaming Control and Revenue Act (MCL 432.218) carries the same penalty for running any unlicensed gambling operation. Neither online gaming act contains a separate offence for advertising an unlicensed site.

Neither act makes it a separate offence for an adult bettor to place a bet with an unlicensed or offshore site. The Michigan Penal Code has general gambling offences, such as MCL 750.301, that do not mention online or offshore betting. The Board enforces against operators: it sent Bovada a cease-and-desist letter in May 2024 (MGCB announcement) and has sent many more to offshore sites since, including 12 in December 2025. MGCB announcement
