Caesars has stopped accepting credit card deposits across its U.S. online gambling platforms, joining other major operators that have removed the payment method amid growing regulatory scrutiny.
The change applies to all Caesars Digital sites and apps in the United States, including Caesars Palace Online Casino, Caesars Racebook, Caesars Sportsbook & Casino, Horseshoe Casino, William Hill Sportsbook, and World Series of Poker Online.
The policy does not apply to Caesars’ online operations in Puerto Rico or Ontario.
“This change follows months of independent review and careful evaluation that began last fall, during which we closely assessed our deposit processes and customer preferences,” a Caesars spokesperson told SBC Americas.
“By streamlining our payment options, we are simplifying the deposit experience, improving operational efficiency, and reinforcing our commitment to delivering a seamless, customer-first digital experience.”
The move follows similar decisions by other leading U.S. operators. DraftKings removed credit card deposits for sports betting and online casino products nationwide in August 2025. FanDuel stopped accepting them on March 2, 2026; BetMGM began phasing them out later in March, and bet365 ended credit card deposits across the U.S. on April 13.
Fanatics Betting and Gaming has never accepted credit cards for online sports betting or casino since launching in the U.S. Like Caesars, DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, and bet365 continue to accept credit cards in Ontario’s regulated market.
The industry move comes as more U.S. states move to restrict credit card use for online gambling. Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Vermont, and Virginia already ban credit cards for online sports betting.
Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed House Bill 515 into law on April 13 after the state Senate approved it unanimously in March.
Maine Gov. Janet Mills signed Legislative Document 2080 in early April, banning credit cards for the state’s existing online sports betting market and its planned online casino market.
Colorado, Maryland, New Jersey, and New York have also considered bills this year to prohibit credit card deposits for online sports betting.
The issue has also drawn federal attention. Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren wrote to several sports betting companies before the Super Bowl, seeking information on their credit card policies. She said some users had reported being unaware that sportsbook deposits made by credit card could result in cash advance fees and other charges.
