Every state page has a date on it. That’s the point. Access language is a snapshot. Apps move the fence without rewriting a statute, and without calling us.
All fifty states get legal notes, real venues, local context, how a contract settles, FAQ. The map color is a four-word summary of that writing. Click the state. Don’t bet the color.
The four snapshot labels
Available means regulated retail event contracts look broadly reachable — still subject to each venue’s screen. Restricted means a lot of the popular apps block residents, or limit them. Check status is the honest word when access is limited, pending, or depends on the product. No data is a spare, if we later have to pull a note. This snapshot already labels all fifty states.
Under the hood we still keep finer words (limited, pending, research) and fold them into Check status or No data so the map doesn’t look smarter than the notes. “Limited,” in older prose, meant product-by-product. It never meant every market on every app.
What every state guide is for
A state page is a dated note: which platform types tend to show up, which caveats repeat, and how to keep sportsbook legalization separate from event-contract access. It is not legal advice, and not a funding checklist. Prices mentioned in examples stay in cents or $0–$1 terms. If you see odds in another format elsewhere, convert mentally — we will not do American-odds here.
Featured cards on the home page (California, New York, Texas, Florida, Illinois) are the same notes in shorter form. The full fifty-state index is searchable. The map is a dated snapshot. Methodology for labels lives on its own page so the trust strip on every route can point at one URL.
