What does Minnesota law say about sports betting?
Sports betting is not legal in Minnesota. State law makes making a bet a misdemeanor, and the list of things that are not bets covers pari-mutuel horse racing, bingo, raffles and State Lottery tickets, but not sports betting. Source: Minnesota Revisor of Statutes - Minn. Stat. 609.75 and 609.755, checked October 6, 2026.
- Law and what is pending. In the 2025-2026 legislative session, a sports betting bill (SF 757) was introduced January 30, 2025 and referred to the Senate State and Local Government Committee. The Revisor's record shows no further action. Source: Minnesota Revisor of Statutes - SF 757 (94th Legislature), checked October 6, 2026.
From our availability data: No legal sportsbooks. A state ban on prediction markets is blocked in federal court.

What courts and officials have done about exchanges in Minnesota
- On July 27, 2026, U.S. District Judge Katherine Menendez preliminarily blocked Minnesota's law making it a felony to host or advertise prediction markets, days before it took effect. She found the CFTC, Kalshi and Polymarket likely to prevail at least in part on preemption; the order could be narrowed later. Source: MPR News, checked October 6, 2026.
- After the July 27, 2026 order, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison said he planned to keep defending the law. The injunction is preliminary and the case continues, so the ban's validity is unresolved; it covers entities registered with the CFTC as designated contract markets. Source: WSLS (Associated Press), checked October 6, 2026.
Availability is due for a recheck by October 16, 2026. See the prediction-markets guide for how exchanges differ from sportsbooks.

What can SlateProof do for you in Minnesota?
With no tracked sportsbook in Minnesota, the lane that applies is exchanges-only arbitrage: every leg at a US exchange, 6 pairs of the 4 exchanges to scan.
- Sportsbook offers do not apply here; exchange legs need resting depth and carry their own fees.
