Betting Sites With PayPal in the United States
Eight of the nine top-rated US sportsbooks we track list PayPal as an accepted payment method: bet365, DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars Sportsbook, BetRivers, ESPN BET, Fanatics Sportsbook and Hard Rock Bet. All of them show a $10 minimum deposit and a 0–24h withdrawal window in the data we hold. This page compares those PayPal betting sites so you can pick the one that fits your state, your app preference and how fast you want payouts back in your wallet.
PayPal availability depends on your state. US sports betting is regulated state by state, so an operator that supports PayPal in New Jersey may not be live at all in yours. Confirm the sportsbook is licensed where you live before you fund an account.
Topping this list for market coverage (9.6) and sports depth (9.5), bet365 also carries the strongest odds rating at 8.8, plus live streaming and a bet-builder inside an app scoring 9.3. Withdrawals process within a 0–24h window, minimums start at $10, and PayPal, Venmo, online banking and Visa are all supported. Choose bet365 if you want the widest range of sports and in-play markets under NJ DGE oversight.
Matching bet365 for app quality at 9.3, FanDuel blends a polished mobile experience with live streaming, same-game parlays and cash-out. It took best price on 37% of 594 sampled markets at a 4.4% average margin, and withdrawals settle within 0–24h via PayPal, Venmo, Visa or online banking from a $10 minimum. Suited to bettors who prioritise a smooth, feature-rich app alongside fair pricing.
Leading the sampled price comparison, DraftKings landed best odds on 54% of markets across 1,077 selections, with an average margin of 4.3%. Its 9.2-rated app pairs same-game parlays, cash-out and fast payouts, while deposits start at $10 through PayPal, Venmo, online banking or Play+. Money clears in 0–24h. Go with DraftKings if consistently competitive pricing matters more to you than any other single factor here.
Punching above its 8.5 app score, Caesars Sportsbook returned best price on 36% of a large 890-market sample, though margins averaged 5.2%. Core tools cover live betting, same-game parlays and cash-out, with $10 deposits handled by PayPal, Venmo, online banking or Play+ and withdrawals inside 0–24h. Reasonable for those drawn to a recognised name who still want frequently competitive lines on mainstream events.
Sitting mid-table with a 9.2 licence-safety mark and an 8.8-rated app, BetMGM offered best price on 19% of 422 sampled markets, its 5.2% average margin the trade-off. Live betting, same-game parlays, cash-out and streaming are all present, funded from $10 via PayPal, Venmo, online banking or Play+. Payouts land inside 0–24h. Worth considering if brand familiarity and a solid all-round app outweigh sharpest odds.
Standing out for its 8.6 withdrawals rating alongside fast-payout support, BetRivers clears cash inside 0–24h and offers same-game parlays and live betting. It hit best price on 28% of 478 sampled markets, but its 6.3% average margin is the highest here. Payments run through PayPal, online banking or Play+ from $10. A fit if quick, dependable withdrawals rank above the tightest pricing.
Notably competitive for a newer name, Fanatics Sportsbook took best price on 42% of 464 sampled markets at a low 4.2% average margin, backed by an 8.7 app score and fast-payout support. Live betting and same-game parlays feature, with $10 deposits via PayPal, Venmo or online banking and 0–24h withdrawals. Consider it if you want sharp pricing and a capable app from a rising operator.
Distinguished by an 8.6-rated app despite modest 8.0 market coverage, ESPN BET keeps things streamlined with live betting, same-game parlays and cash-out. Deposits start at $10 through PayPal, Venmo or online banking, and withdrawals complete within a 0–24h window under state regulation. A sensible pick for casual bettors who value a clean, familiar-feeling app over the deepest sport catalogue.
Rounding out the list, Hard Rock Bet pairs an 8.5-rated app with an 8.3 withdrawals mark and fast-payout support, settling cash within 0–24h. Live betting and same-game parlays are covered, funded from $10 through PayPal, Venmo or online banking under state licensing. A reasonable option for those wanting reliable payouts and a straightforward app rather than the widest market depth.
Why PayPal is a different ranking
9 licensed United States operators match PayPal. The parent page ranks the whole market; this one only keeps books that clear both filters.
PayPal deposit is the entry ticket; the payout question is whether winnings can come back the same way. Published withdrawal windows among these 9 books: 0–24h. That is the PayPal × cash-out intersection — it does not appear on the sport-only page.
On sampled core prices, DraftKings holds the best available line 54% of the time. Average margin across this PayPal cut is 4.8% — a different number from the unfiltered country ranking.

Best Betting Sites With PayPal, and Who Each One Suits
The ordering reflects our overall operator ratings, not a claim that any one is objectively the best for you.
Choose bet365 if you want the strongest all-round profile: it carries the top licence-safety rating (9.5) and app score (9.3) on this list, plus Bet Builder and Live Streaming. Good fit if you bet across many sports and want live streaming tied to your PayPal-funded account.
Choose DraftKings or FanDuel if you mainly play parlays. Both score 9.0 on features with Same Game Parlay and Fast Payout, and both hit a 9.2–9.3 app rating. In our sampled odds data DraftKings had the best price on 54% of markets (1,068 markets sampled) versus FanDuel's 36% (596 markets) — so DraftKings edged pricing in that sample.
Choose BetRivers if withdrawal experience matters most. It has the highest withdrawals rating here (8.6), though its odds sample showed a wider average margin (6.35%) than DraftKings (4.25%) or FanDuel (4.46%), meaning less competitive pricing on the markets we sampled.
Choose ESPN BET, Fanatics or Hard Rock Bet if you prefer their app ecosystems. All three post app scores of 8.5–8.7 and support PayPal plus Venmo. Fanatics had the strongest pricing of the three in our sample (best price on 42% of 466 markets).
Avoid picking on PayPal alone if pricing is your main concern — margins vary noticeably between these books, and the PayPal logo tells you nothing about the odds behind it.
PayPal Deposits: What to Expect
Across all nine sportsbooks the listed minimum deposit is $10. A PayPal deposit typically pulls from your linked bank or PayPal balance and credits your betting account without exposing your card details to the operator, which is the main appeal for many bettors.
Before your first PayPal deposit, most books require you to have completed identity verification and to fund from a PayPal account registered to the same name. We don't hold deposit-fee data for these operators, so treat any fee as something to confirm inside the cashier at the moment of deposit rather than assume it's free.
One practical note: several sportsbooks require that your first withdrawal go back to the same method you deposited with. If you deposit by PayPal, plan to withdraw to PayPal too — mixing methods can trigger extra checks.
PayPal Withdrawals and Payout Speed
All nine operators list a 0–24h withdrawal window in our data. That's the operator's processing time; PayPal itself usually reflects funds quickly once the sportsbook releases them, which is why PayPal is often faster to your wallet than a bank transfer or check.
Withdrawal ratings differ even where the stated window is identical: BetRivers (8.6), bet365 (8.9 overall) and Hard Rock Bet (8.3) sit at the higher end for PayPal withdrawal experience, while BetMGM (8.3), Caesars (8.2) and ESPN BET (8.0) sit lower. A higher rating reflects smoother, more consistent payout handling rather than a different published timeframe.
If fast cash-out is a priority, DraftKings, FanDuel, BetRivers, Fanatics and Hard Rock Bet all list a Fast Payout feature in addition to PayPal support.
Is It Legal to Use PayPal for Betting in the US?
Yes, where the sportsbook is licensed in your state. PayPal only partners with operators that hold the required state licence, which is one reason its presence is a rough indicator of legitimacy. But it is not a substitute for checking your own state.
The minimum betting age is 21 across regulated US markets. Availability differs by jurisdiction — a book licensed in New Jersey is not automatically legal in New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Colorado, Ohio, Illinois, Arizona, Virginia or Massachusetts. Confirm the operator is live and licensed where you're physically located, since geolocation will block bets placed outside a licensed state regardless of your payment method.
We verify operators against the licence and legality data we hold; we do not open accounts, deposit or withdraw ourselves. Always check the current cashier and terms inside the app for your state.
How we rank
Every operator on this page went through the same checklist before it could be listed for United States: we verify the licence against the regulator's public register, document the payment methods, minimum deposits and published withdrawal windows, review the apps and measure everyday odds against our live feed. Safety and payout reliability carry the heaviest weight in the final score, followed by payment coverage, app quality and pricing. If a site fails licence verification, it isn't ranked lower — it's excluded. This page re-weights the same checklist for PayPal: operators that miss the payment method or the sport coverage drop out, and the remaining scores emphasise the intersection — not a copy of the parent ranking.
US sports betting is regulated state by state. An operator licensed in New Jersey is not automatically legal in another state — availability, minimum age and rules depend on your state regulator.

What's the minimum deposit at PayPal betting sites?
All nine sportsbooks we track list a $10 minimum deposit. Confirm the exact figure in the cashier, as promotions or state rules can vary it.

Is using PayPal for betting legal in my state?
