Legal Gambling USA - Iowa

FanDuel IA - Legal IA Site

Since sports betting went live in Iowa, the state's residents have had the privilege of having access to some of the best sports betting mobile operators in the U.S. Fanduel is a prominent member of that group.

It would seem that Fanduel's 10+ years of serving as a Daily Fantasy Sports platform really paid off when the operator transitioned to become an online bookmaker as well. In some circles, experts believe that having had that experience gives the operator a significant advantage over the completion.

Regardless of how they got here, Fandual is a quality online sports betting option. Their website is highly functional and full of information about bonuses, administrative services, and of course, available betting markets from all over the globe.

The online sportsbook/casino combination is available to Iowa online gamblers via a PC/web browser combination or a native app that is compatible with top operating systems like Android, Blackberry, and iOS for Apple.

Betting Markets

Iowa sports bettors are also great sports fans. They enjoy watching and betting on a wide range of sports. Knowing that is a general characteristic of a U.S. sports bettor, Fanduel works diligently to make sure sports bettors have access to dozens of different betting markets when available. As a sample, here is a partial list of Fanduel betting markets that are offered when "in season":

International football (soccer), international basketball and baseball, motorsports (including NASCAR, tennis, golf, volleyball rugby, cricket, Aussie Rules Football, boxing, and major American sports leagues like the NBA, WNBA, NCAA basketball (men's and women's), NFL, NBAA FB, MLB, MSL, and the NHL.

Betting Options

It's not enough for U.S. sports bettors to get access to all of the right betting markets. They also demand access to all of the relevant betting options, something Fanduel graciously offers. The current available options include:

• Money line straight bets
  
• Point spread straight bets
  
• Parlays
  
• Teasers
  
• Live in-game
  
• Futures Odds betting
  
• Proposition bets
  
• Round Robins
  

Fanduel betting limits are aggressive and competitive, something that high rollers will appreciate.

Bonuses and Promotions

f there is any knock against management at Fanduel, it would have to be they don't seem to be very fond of offering bonuses. Currently, they show a "refer-a-friend" bonus and a couple of Same Game Parlay offers. That doesn't stack up very well versus much of the competition.

As for the bonus offer, it's pretty much in line with other bookmakers. Fanduel's welcome offer features $150 in Bonus Bets.

Banking and Customer Service

The currently available banking option at Fanduel IA includes PayPal, Play+, PayNearMe, bank transfers, and credit cards (Amner Exp, Discover, VISA, and M/C).

Customer service is open 24/7. Reps can be reached via phone, live chat, or email.

Verdict: By offering sports/casino/DFS as a package, Fanduel deserves a lot of consideration.
