BetMGM Sportsbook Launches in Alberta While Running Separate US Betting Promotions
BetMGM Sportsbook officially launched in Alberta, Canada on August 13 — its first international expansion since entering Ontario. Meanwhile, in the US market, the platform is also running game-specific promotions, including one tied to a Yankees-Padres MLB matchup.
New Market in Canada
Sportsbook operator BetMGM officially launched in the Canadian province of Alberta on August 13, according to RotoWire. This marks the company's first international expansion since entering Ontario, bringing Alberta bettors a full sportsbook, casino, and rewards ecosystem. The platform operates as a joint venture between MGM Resorts and Entain, and it already has an established presence in Ontario as well as more than 20 US states.
New users signing up in Alberta can use the registration code ROTOBET. The mobile app has an average rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars on the Apple App Store and 4.0 out of 5 on Google Play. The minimum deposit is $10.
What the Platform Offers
BetMGM Alberta offers a wide range of bet types — from straightforward moneylines and point spreads to totals, parlays, player and team props, futures, and live in-game betting. Bettors can wager on the NHL, CFL, NFL, NBA, MLB, soccer, MMA, and eSports. The platform also features local content, including dedicated coverage of the Edmonton Oilers and Elks, as well as the Calgary Flames and Stampeders. A single account gives users access to sportsbook, casino games, and poker, while the loyalty program provides benefits across more than 50 MGM Resorts properties worldwide.
US Market Promotions
Alongside its Canadian expansion, BetMGM continues to run game-specific promotions in the US market. As reported by TheLines.com, for a regular-season MLB matchup between the New York Yankees and San Diego Padres, the platform offered new users who register with a promo code and place a same-game parlay bet of at least $10 a refund of up to $1,500 in bonus bets if the wager loses. The source also cited specific betting suggestions for the game, involving players Fernando Tatis Jr. and Ben Rice, as well as the game's total run count. It should be noted that this promotion applies to the US market and is separate from the Alberta platform launch.
