The market
West Virginia was one of the earliest movers after the federal ban fell, and it added online casino in 2020. Sports betting is taxed at a low 10% and online casino at 15%. The operator field is mid-sized for a small state, and the offers are reliable.
What this means for matched betting
A 10% tax plus online casino alongside sports betting gives West Virginia more promotions than its population would suggest. The field is mid-sized, so check you've a second book priced well before you take an offer.
