Caesars Sportsbook is now accepting mobile sports wagers across North Carolina. The company was among the eight sportsbooks that secured licenses from state regulators ahead of the online betting market launch on Monday.
Sports bettors 21 and older across the state can now place bets with the Caesars Sportsbook app on mobile or via desktop. The development follows news earlier in the month that Caesars had become the first sportsbook in North Carolina to offer mobile sports wagering by launching on Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians Tribal Lands and at Harrah’s Cherokee Casino Resort and Harrah’s Cherokee Valley River Casino & Hotel.
While that initial launch was limited to on-site wagering at the aforementioned locations, Caesars is now accepting mobile bets across the Tar Heel State. Caesars Sportsbook called the launch a milestone in its longstanding partnership between parent Caesars Entertainment and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians.
“North Carolina is filled with sports fans who’ve shown us how passionate they are about their teams,” said Eric Hession, President of Caesars Digital. “The expanded launch of our Caesars Sportsbook mobile app serves as an opportunity for fans to get a little closer to the sports they love, and we look forward to providing a best-in-class mobile sports wagering experience to more North Carolinians that pays homage to the sports excellence that is engrained in the state’s history.”
Caesars Sportsbook customers in North Carolina will be able to earn Tier Credits for status and Reward Credits that are redeemable for a variety of experiences thanks to the app’s integration with Caesars Rewards, the company’s customer loyalty program. Experiences part of the program include discounted getaways at various Caesars destinations across North America, culinary or entertainment experiences, and more.

Caesars’ app promises “thousands” of game markets, prop bets, same-game parlays, and in-game live betting for major North American sports leagues. In addition, its product boasts the ability to livestream marquee sporting events, including NFL games, directly in the app. The online experience is also highlighted by user-friendly features like quick payouts and numerous deposit options, according to a press release.
The company says these features “build on the gold-standard sports wagering experience” already available at Caesars destinations in North Carolina. Cash deposits and withdrawals for Caesars Sportsbook mobile accounts can also be made at Harrah’s Cherokee Casino Resort in Cherokee, and Harrah’s Cherokee Valley River Casino & Hotel in Murphy.
Starting Monday, eligible bettors in North Carolina can download the Caesars Sportsbook app, register online, and deposit funds to take advantage of special sign-up offers for first-time users. Bettors can register, deposit, and bet $10 to get $250 in Bonus Bets, as announced in a press release.
In addition to that launch offer, Caesars Sportsbook will be offering “golf-specific Caesars Rewards experiences that pay tribute to a sport that holds a legacy in the South.” The VIP experiences include a getaway at the 2024 Masters, Stay & Play opportunities at Harrah’s Cherokee and Sequoyah National Golf Club, and a round of golf for two at Pinehurst No. 2 after the conclusion of the 2024 U.S. Open.
