    Minimum Age

    Hello to forum-ers, sorry about this stupid question but I am a newbie to sportsbetting. What is the minimum age to bet on the sites in US? Is it 18, 21, state-depedent, or site-dependent? Thank you in advance!

    Thanks I was looking up BetJamaica and the site says min 21. Is that just site-specific?

    Is it 18 or 21 though? Because I am 20 and I want to do it only if it's legal.

    Im pretty sure its 21 for most sites. The ones ive been looking at say 21. Alot of sights dont say though for some reason. Although on the other hand a friend of mine had Legends when he was 18, im not sure if they let him or if he figured out something else but thats how i hear it.

    most of them allows 18 and above.. for example you will open account today, but you will turn 18 next month..
    you still cannot.. you need to pass your birthday.. excatly.. not before... ok ok! haha

    Well, the legal gambling age in the United States is 18. The only reason you can't go into most casinos is because they serve alcohol. However, your best bet is to e-mail support at a few sites and make sure everything is ok because I do beleive they are site specific. Nothing would suck more then to look to cash out a nice chunk of money only to have them say no, your not of age.

    yes the minimum is 18! but if its online even your 17 can do it.. the problem is ask your older siblings to
    register on their name.. lols! becausr if they ask for ID they might caught you!. haha..
