Virginia permitted sports betting in April 2020 and within a year it saw its firts legal online wager. Since then, the gambling market has grown into one of the liveliest and most competitive in the country. Fans in the Old Dominion state quickly got involved in wagering on their favorite teams and October 2022 saw a record $528 million wagered on the month's sporting action.

Since online gambling platforms came to the Commonwealth of Virginia, local players have been treated to some top class platforms. Caesars Sportsbook, backed by one of the most famous names in gambling and boasting a popular loyalty program, is among the favorites. Read on for a comprehensive look at what Caesars Sportsbook Virginia has to offer.

The great news is that Caesars Sportsbook is fully live and legal in Virginia. Caesars obtained a sports betting permit in February 2021 and launched its website and app that same month. That makes it one of the first sites to take wagers in the state, within weeks of DraftKings' historic first legal bet on January 21, 2021.

That launch was the culmination of a long journey. Sports betting in the USA had been blocked by the federal Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) until 2018. After the Supreme Court struck down PASPA, individual states could make their own rules on gambling. Virginia began to research the issue in the spring of 2019 and by November of that year it was ready to begin the legislative journey. From there, it took just over a year to turn theory into practice and get lawful sports betting in Virginia up and running. However, there are still limitations. A 2022 bill to allow bets on college sports failed to clear the house. In addition, there are restrictions on how platforms can market their betting offers.

Caesars Virginia deposit and withdrawal methods

Top sportsbooks in Virginia try to offer a wide range of payment methods to customers. After all, the easier it is to deposit and withdraw funds, the more likely players are to sign up and remain active. Caesars is no exception, and has many options for making payments. Let's look at a few.

Deposit

  • Discover Card - This is one of America's most popular payment cards, having cemented its reputation since its launch in 1985. Discover is available for deposits at Caesars, but it cannot be used to withdraw funds.
  • Visa - It's a similar story with Visa. The world's most popular payment card is OK for funding your Caesars account, but you'll need an alternative payment system to get hold of your money. In both cases, this is due to restrictions imposed by card issuers on transactions with gambling sites.
  • PayNearMe - For players who believe that cash is king, PayNearMe is a convenient way to fund online accounts. Simply purchase a voucher at your local convenience store and use it to make a deposit at Caesars. However, this is a one-way street: it is not possible to withdraw funds via PayNearMe.

Withdrawal

  • Online banking - For many players, online banking will be the most convenient way of transferring funds to and from Caesars. No card information changes hands; everything is done by logging into your online banking account from the 'cashier' section of the gambling site. Once you log in, you can instantly transfer funds to and from your bank account.
  • ACH transfer - This e-checking service is another convenient way of getting funds back to your bank. You'll need to provide an account number and routing code, and confirm your billing information. After that, just choose the sum you want to transfer and you're good to go.
  • Play+ - Designed with gamblers in mind, Play+ is a pre-paid card that takes the hassle out of funding your betting accounts. You can withdraw your winnings to the card and then you have good options. If you want cash, just take it to an ATM. Alternatively, use your Play+ card to make purchases with any merchant that accepts Discover. Finally, you can send funds from Play+ back to your bank account or e-wallet of choice.
