- You may have issues withdrawing any winnings. Since you violated the terms by betting from a restricted location, BetMGM could refuse to pay out your winnings if they detect you used a VPN.
- You’d still be responsible for any losses. Even though using a VPN violates the terms, you’d still be on the hook for any money you lose while betting.
So in summary – it’s not advisable to use a VPN to access BetMGM if you are located in a state where they don’t operate. Doing so violates their terms and could cause problems if you try to withdraw any money you win.
The safer and legal option is to use BetMGM only if you are physically located in a state where they are licensed. You can check their website to see the list of states where the BetMGM sportsbook is currently available.
If you do decide to use a VPN anyway, some tips would be:
- Use a reputable VPN service that is known to work with sports betting sites. ExpressVPN and NordVPN are good choices.
- Connect to a server located in a BetMGM-approved state.
- Use bitcoin or another crypto currency for deposits and withdrawals when possible, as this offers more anonymity.
But again, there are risks involved with trying to bypass geolocation restrictions, so proceed carefully and understand you may forfeit winnings earned while using the VPN.
