A major player in the brick-and-mortar sportsbook industry long before online sports betting was legalized in the United States, Caesars Sportsbook is as reputable as they come. Their April 2021 acquisition of William Hill Sportsbook has only made their brand and product stronger, as they continue to venture into new states legalizing sports betting.

Long considered the golden goose of states legalizing sports betting, California remains hopeful that its nearly 40 million residents will be next up in online sports betting becoming legal. When that day does finally come, Caesars Sportsbook California will surely be an early player in The Golden State, especially given their proximity to their retail Las Vegas sportsbooks.

Let’s take a look at what to expect when that day arrives.

Is Caesars Sportsbook live in California?

No, Caesars Sportsbook is not yet live in California, as sports betting legislation has yet to pass in the state. There were two bills, Prop 26 and Prop 27, that failed to pass the 50% “Yes” threshold in the November 2022 vote.

The next possible vote on sports betting bills would be in November 2024, making 2025 the earliest the state could see some form of sports betting. Whether that be at brick-and-mortar (retail) locations, online, or a mix of both, California’s many tribal casinos will certainly be involved.

Regardless, when California sports betting does eventually come to fruition, expect Caesars Sportsbook to be in the mix for the licenses that the state issues.

Registering at Caesars Sportsbook in California and claiming their promo

When Caesars Sportsbook reaches California’s state line, you will want to make sure you are educated on how to get registered as soon as possible. Here is how to register at the California sportsbook.

  1. Find your promo code here: When Caesars goes live in California, we’ll have this page updated with the best promos and a link to register.
  2. Follow the link: Follow the link to register for an account, where you will enter basic information such as email address, phone number, and the password of your choice.
  3. Verify Account: In order to verify your account, you’ll need to enter more information such as an address, date of birth, license or passport number, and the last four digits of your Social Security number. This is how Caesars will verify your identity, a requirement for California sportsbooks regulated by any state.
  4. Agree to the terms and make a deposit: Once your account is verified, you’ll need to check the boxes to agree to Caesars’ terms and conditions and privacy policy. Once complete, it’s time to select the payment method for your first deposit.
  5. Make your first bet: With funds now available in your Caesars wallet, it’s time to navigate back to the sportsbook and make your first real wager with Caesars Sportsbook California.

What type of welcome promo will Caesars offer when they go live?

Though we don’t know definitively what Caesars Sportsbook California will offer when they go live, we can make some educated guesses based on what legal sports betting states offer now.

In Virginia, for example, Caesars is offering new bettors a “Get Your First Bet Back!” bonus, refunding their first cash bet if it is a loser, with a bonus bet. This promo is for new users only on their very first bet, up to $1,000. Check back to this page when California sports betting goes live for the newest offers from Caesars Sportsbook.

When will the Caesars promo reward reach my account?

You will receive your Ceasars promo immediately after your wager settles in most cases, though terms and conditions note that it might take up to 72 hours to process to your account. If the promo you use is a deposit bonus, your bonus bets will hit your account as soon as your deposit clears in most cases.

Conditions for the Caesars bonus in other states

Using Caesars' primary welcome bonus in Virginia as an example, there are a few conditions that bettors should be aware of before claiming it. The “Get Your First Bet Back” promo offers users their stake amount back in the form of a bonus bet if their very first wager is a loser, up to $1,000.

First and foremost, the bet is for new users only, and you must use the eligible promo code at the time of making the bet. The promo expires 14 days after receiving it, and the amount of your wager (if a loss), is returned in the form of a bonus bet. If your first bet is a winner, the promo is voided and can not be used again.

What do I do if the Caesars California bonus is not working?

If your Caesars California bonus is not working as expected, the first step is to double-check the terms and conditions to ensure that you qualify for it and that the promo has not expired. Next, ensure you are signed into your account, and navigate to the Ceasars customer support section to check their FAQs related to California betting bonuses. If all else fails, get in touch with Caesars' helpful customer support team (top right-hand corner of the page) via their contact form, 24/7 live chat, or phone support.

Where can I find the latest Caesars California promotions?

When Caesars California goes live, check back to this page to find the best promotions they have available. If you are looking for them on their main page, navigate to the “Promotions” tab at the top of the page to find all of their promotions. As of September 2023, Caesars Sportsbook has nine unique promos listed in other states.

Different kinds of wagers on Caesars Sportsbook

It’s critical when you start your sports betting journey, whether it be at Caesars Sportsbook California or elsewhere, that you know all the bet types at your disposal. Let’s dive into a few different kinds.

  • Moneyline: When you place a moneyline bet, you are simply choosing which team or player will win a matchup. The team with a negative (-) next to their name is expected by the sportsbook to win (favorite), while the team with the positive (+) sign is expected to lose (underdog).
  • Totals: More commonly referred to as the “over/under,” this is a bet on the combined score of a game. Betting the “over” would be a bet on the teams combining to score more than the posted total, with the under being a bet on them combining to score less than the total.
  • Same-game parlays: A parlay is a bet involving two or more legs, all of which must win for the bet to be a winner. As the name implies, a same-game parlay is a parlay with all legs or linked bets being in the same game. This could involve anything from moneyline bets to totals to player or team props.
  • Futures: A future bet is a wager that is placed either before a season starts, or during it, for a result that will be established when the season concludes. Betting on who will win the Heisman Trophy in college football mid-season is one example.

Best sports leagues you will be able to bet on using Caesars California

  • Football: The NFL and college football will be covered in full at Caesars California, featuring all of the California teams, including the Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers, USC Trojans (if California sports betting legislation allows), and many more. Smaller niche leagues, such as the USFL and XFL, will also be available.
  • Basketball: The NBA and college basketball will be available from day one of California sports betting, and Ceasars California will feature both. International FIBA basketball, as well as the NBA Summer League, will also be featured for betting on the California gambling site. Be on the lookout for California’s best teams, including the Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, and UCLA Bruins.
  • Hockey: The NHL will be the primary hockey league covered at Caesars California, with bettors able to bet on the Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks out of the gates.
  • Soccer: Major League Soccer (MLS) will be available to bet at Caesars California when it launches, as the league has seen an explosion in growth in recent years. California is home to three teams, with the LA Galaxy, Los Angeles Football Club, and San Jose Earthquake calling The Golden State home. International leagues such as La Liga, English Premier League, and many more will be available for betting as well.

The Caesars mobile betting app in California

With more than 20 million Americans estimated to have bet on sports online, recent trends are showing mobile betting apps have become the go-to method. Sports betting apps in CA can then expect to be popular on day one of legalized online betting in the state, whenever that day may come.

Based on experience having used it in other states, the Caesars Sportsbook betting app is already one of the best in the business. As soon as you load the app, the intuitive design catches your eye, with three basic tabs at the bottom: “Home,” “Promotions,” and “Bets.” The emphasis on the current boosts offered by Caesars also catches your eye prominently on the top banner, a specialty of theirs.

Will it be possible to bet on CA college sports with Caesars Sportsbook?

It is not yet clear whether it will be possible to bet on CA college teams, as California sports betting legislation has not yet passed. It is worth noting that many states have restricted college sports betting on teams located within the state, with the exception being if they are part of a major tournament (such as during March Madness).

States that have so far put restrictions around in-state betting on local college programs include Arizona, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Oregon, Virginia, Wisconsin, and Washington D.C.
