Colorado is the third state, following Nevada and New Jersey, to open its doors to Wynn Resorts’ online sportsbook, WynnBET. However, the Centennial State was the first to debut the Scientific Games-backed app.
In this WynnBET review, you will learn everything there is to know about the sportsbook, including how to receive a $500 risk-free first bet. We also walk you through downloading the sportsbook app, getting signed up with Wynn, depositing and withdrawing funds, and accessing various promotions.
So sit back, and you’ll soon be placing sports bets on the Denver Broncos, Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche, Colorado Rockies or team of your choice.
New Wynn Sportsbook users who deposit at least $20 are eligible for a risk-free initial bet up to $500. First, within 10 days of making your qualifying deposit, you must make at least a $20 bet.
In order for your bet to be eligible for the welcome offer, the odds need to be between -150 and +10,000, a pretty huge range. The bet also can be a straight or parlay wager. Boosted odds, however, are not eligible for the promotion.
Then, if your eligible wager loses, you receive a free bet for the amount you bet, up to $500. You have 10 days from the time you receive the free bet to use it before it expires. The same odds requirements apply for the free bet, between -150 and +10,000 and it can be a single or parlay wager, but not boosted odds.
Overall, this is a quality offer. Many similar bonuses don’t allow for parlay bets to be eligible, and allowing odds up to +10,000 really give you the chance to get your bankroll off to an amazing start. Be aware, though, that if your first bet wins, then nothing changes and you do not get another risk-free bet.

In the early going, Wynn’s online sportsbook does not have a whole lot to offer in terms of promotions. It has the welcome bonus discussed above, but after that, the offers are sparse.
The one big promotion it does have is the Spin Wheel. With the Spin Wheel, players can spend five chips to spin Wynn’s prize wheel, and if you land on a prize you win that prize. The prizes vary from odds boosts to insurance for parlay bets and special rewards like free stays at Wynn Resort properties. You earn chips by depositing money into your account and for every losing bet you place.
Wynn also offers various parlay and odds boosts, but unlike a lot of Colorado sportsbooks, it doesn’t have a promotions page showing all the current offers. Instead, as you scroll down, you will see different boosted odds and boosted parlays. While solid, these offers are not as easy to see and track as they are at other books.
Yes, Wynn Sportsbook is registered and licensed in Colorado, making it 100% legal.
The sportsbook is partnered with Bronco Billy’s Casino and Hotel in Cripple Creek and obtained its sports betting license from the Colorado Limited Gaming Control Commission, which oversees gambling in the state.
In order to bet on sports in Colorado, you must be at least 21 years of age and you need to have geolocation software on your phone or tablet turned on to confirm that you are placing your bets from somewhere in Colorado.
Creating a new sportsbook account in the Centennial State is a fully remote process, if you wish, using the Wynn app. Once you have the app on your device of choice, follow the steps below to create your Wynn account.
Registering should take only a couple of minutes, and you should be able to do it from anywhere with internet or wireless access. In fact, you don’t even need to be in Colorado when you create your account; you just need to be in the state when you want to place bets.
Wynn’s sportsbook app is your only way of betting with Wynn in Colorado, as it does not yet offer a retail sportsbook or website at which to place bets. Before we go over the app, let’s make sure you know how to get it on your phone or tablet.
The easiest way to get Wynn Sportsbook on your iOS or Android device is by the link from here to the Wynn site. Once there, you’ll be able to follow the prompts to download and install the app on your device.
It should take only a couple of minutes max, and then you’ll be ready to start betting with Wynn.
The app is very easy to use because unlike some of Wynn’s previous offerings, it is only a sportsbook app, not a combo sportsbook and online casino.
Placing bets is as easy as clicking on the bet you want to make then entering the amount you want to bet and clicking “place bet.” Another option that makes Wynn great is that instead of entering the amount you want to bet, you can put the amount you want to win, and your bet amount will be determined based on that.
To access your Wynn account, simply click on the logo in the upper left corner of the screen. From there, you can deposit or withdraw money, view your betting history, check your notifications, change your settings, contact Wynn support and more.
Overall, the app is a great choice for doing your mobile sports betting. It is easy to navigate and makes placing bets simple. Just remember to always have your geolocation turned on and be in Colorado, otherwise you won’t be able to place any bets.
If you’re considering signing up with Wynn in Colorado, here is a look at some of its best features.
If you are wondering about some of the ways Wynn comes up a little bit short, we have the answer for you right here.
Here are the various sports wagers you can make at WynnBET.
You can use the Wynn Sportsbook app to bet on all the major professional and college leagues in the U.S. and abroad.
Have no fear, you can bet on all the NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB action you desire. Of course, Wynn also has betting markets for NCAA football and basketball, but that’s nowhere near everything it has to offer. You can also bet on MLS games, UFC, PGA Tour, WNBA, NASCAR, and women’s and men’s tennis.
Wynn also has tons of betting markets for international soccer leagues like the English Premier League, Champions League and once every four years for the FIFA World Cup. And you’ll even find markets for some of the smaller sports, including table tennis, which has been surprisingly popular in the Centennial State.
In Colorado, we have quite a few pro and college teams that you can bet on. Here’s a look at all of them.
For some, the idea of betting on games every day during the season can feel overwhelming. If that’s the case, futures betting might be perfect for you. You can wager the over/under on teams’ win totals before a season starts, as well as place bets on which teams you think will win the division or championship.
You could bet on the Avalanche to win the Stanley Cup or on the Nuggets to win the NBA Finals. You also could place a wager on the Rockies finally winning their first National League West title or on the Broncos to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl.
You also will find futures markets for college sports. Meaning you can bet on the Buffs to win the NCAA men’s basketball national championship or on the Rams to win the Mountain West Conference title.
Wynn also has markets available for players to win season-long awards in the major sports. Maybe you want to bet on Jokić or Avs star Nathan MacKinnon their respective leagues’ MVP awards, for instance.
The Wynn Sportsbook has a few ways to deposit and withdraw money from your account, with more possibly on the way in the future. Let’s take a look at all the methods that currently are available, first for deposits:
And here are your options for making withdrawals:
Please note that if you have not deposited funds using your Play+ card or VIP Preferred, you will not be able to withdraw any funds using those two methods.
To contact Wynn’s customer service team, you can start by opening the app, logging in and then selecting “Support & FAQ” under your account.
From there you can look for an answer to your problem under Wynn’s FAQs. If that doesn’t work, you also have the option of sending a message, starting a live chat or calling the help desk at 201-383-2837. It’s been our experience that having a live chat worked extremely well and quickly.
Wynn provides a lot of help and information regarding responsible gambling. On the app, you can set limits for how much money you can deposit during a day, week or month. And you can also restrict how much you can spend and how much time you can be on the app.
Wynn also lets players self-exclude for periods of time or even for good if you decide that is what you want to do.
And finally, Wynn also has information to help users determine if they have a gambling problem and where they can turn to get help.
Currently Wynn does not have a retail sportsbook location in Colorado.
In order to obtain its sports betting license in the state, Wynn partnered with Bronco Billy’s Casino in Cripple Creek; however, the retail sportsbook there is operated by BetAmerica.
Wynn is not the best sportsbook in Colorado at this time.
Not only did Wynn Sportsbook launch almost eight months after some of the top online sportsbook in the state like DraftKings, BetMGM and FanDuel, but as one of the new apps in the U.S., there simply isn’t enough data to go on yet to consider Wynn the top sportsbook.
If the Wynn app is able to offer some of the best odds and best promotions in the Centennial State, then there’s no reason it can’t be considered among the best in the near future, though.
Yes, Wynn is licensed by the Colorado Limited Gaming Control Commission, which oversees sports betting in the state. If you have any concerns, you can contact the CLGCC by calling 303-205-1300 or emailing [email protected]
You must be 21 or older to legally bet on sports in Colorado. You also need to be physically in the state when placing bets, so you need to enable the geolocation software on your phone or tablet to make sports bets.

Yes. You can tell if a bet is eligible by seeing if there is a cash-out button with the bet.
Yes, you can bet on Buffs games as well as games for all the Colorado-based colleges and universities.
