The BetRivers services is run by Rush Street Interactive, an affiliate of Rivers Casino in Des Plaines, which is a leading real-money sportsbook operator in many other states across the United States such as IN, PA, NY and CO. EGR monthly recently named Rush Street Interactive as a top-3 online/sportsbook operator in the US. Download BetRivers. The Rivers Sportsbook is a luxury-styled sports lounge occupying just over 5,000 square feet. The space is furnished with 18 individual VIP club chairs and table seating accommodations for approximately 80.
The long-anticipated start of mobile sports betting in Indiana began on October 3, 2019, with the launch of Rush Street’s new BetRivers Sportsbook and their new mobile app. Finally, Hoosiers can now bet through their mobile phones and computers without needing to visit a casino. Available on mobile and dedicated apps for Android devices and the iPhone & iPad, it’s an app we have been looking forward to for a long time!
We are going to take a close look at the new Rush Street sports betting app, show you how to download it to your mobile, run you through the features and look at the bonuses available to bettors who are joining the Sportsbook. Get ready, Indiana; mobile wagering is finally here, thanks to BetRivers! So like a rivers casino buffet, let’s get stuck in with our review.
It’s not just Indiana where you can use the app to wager, players in Pennsylvania, Illinois, Colorado, Virginia, Iowa & Michigan can also use the app and mobile site to place their bets. Just make sure your in-state lines before placing your bet.
BetRivers Sportsbook App
So, how do you download the BetRivers app for Indiana, Colorado, or Pennsylvania? Well, that’s easy. Just follow these steps:
BetRivers iPhone app
BetRiver’s iPhone app is now available to download from iTunes. Just follow the link to the app store and press GET. This will download the BetRivers Sportsbook Indiana iOS app.
BetRivers Android app
To install the app on any Android device, go to https://in.betrivers.com/android. This will launch the BetRivers APK download. Click on Download to get the file; it is called BetRiversIN.apk. On the new page, press the Install button. If required, allow Unknown Sources on your phone’s settings. Then click on OK and install the app. Then just open the app, sign up, log in, and fund your account.
Please Note: As it stands, Google & the Google Play Store will not allow any type of real wagering or gambling apps to be in the app store in the US. It means you need to download the BetBrivers IN Sportsbook APK direct from the operator. Doing this is 100% safe and standard procedure to download any app outside of the Play Store. Google will hopefully allow the app (and other real money apps) in the store in the future, but for now, this is the correct and official way to get it on your device.

Sportsbook overview
The first legal sports bets in the state had to be placed in person at one of the 13 brick-and-mortar casinos that were handed licenses by the Indiana Gaming Commission (IGC). The French Lick Casino became the first also to offer mobile wagering, thanks to their partnership with Rush Street Gaming, which manages the casino’s retail and online sportsbook operations. As a result of this partnership and the launch of the BetRivers app, bettors now have the entire Sportsbook experience in their pockets at all times. But how does it measure up, and what does it offer bettors who download it? Just two questions that we’ll endeavor to answer in our comprehensive guide to the BetRivers mobile app for Indiana.
Who can download the app?
Anyone in the US can download the app, but you do need to be aged 21 or older and are physically located inside Indiana before you can place a bet on it. You don’t have to be a Hoosier to bet on the app. As long as you are physically in the state lines, you can bet.
In case you’re wondering how BetRivers know you’ve got two feet inside Indiana, it’s all done by some smart geo-locating technology, which uses a combination of WiFi, cellular data, and IP address data. This tech will already be installed on your mobile device, although you may have first to enable Location permissions. So when you download the Android or iOS app, make sure you allow it access to your location. You will also be able to do this on the mobile site too. It is now a standard procedure with online and mobile Sportsbooks in the US. If you plan on using BetRivers in Indiana on your computer or laptop, you may need to use a browser plugin to confirm your location.
Getting Started
Once you’ve downloaded the app, you’ll want to go ahead and create an account, and that’s easy enough. However, you will need some identifying information to hand, including the last four digits of your social security number. Here’s what info you’ll need to confirm at this stage:
- Login details – email address or username and a password of your choice.
- Personal details – name, gender, date of birth, full address, and cell phone number
- Last four digits from your SSN
- Security questions – in case you forget your logins and have to reset these
Essentially BetRivers need to determine they are not dealing with a minor and that you’re not opening an account for someone else. Failure to do that would hinder the regulations set down by the IGC and could result in the loss of their license. Bettors who create an account with them can do so in the knowledge that their personal information is both safe and secure.
BetRivers Mobile
As well as offering apps for Android & iOS devices. BetRivers also support a mobile site for bettors in Indiana. The platform is near identical across all the operating systems. So if you don’t want to use an app, you can wager straight on the mobile site at https://betrivers.com/ and have access to all the same sports and wagering opportunities. Any serious bettor will want to download the app as it is a lot quicker and more convenient just to tap the screen on your cell and launch the app, rather than go to your browser and enter the address. We will go through the features of the app below and look at how these can be used to help you bet on the app.
There is a wide choice of bet types you can place with the book, including:
- Round robins
- Straight (Singles)
- Teaser
- Totals aka Over/Under
You will find there are more sports available with the DraftKings sportsbook, but that shouldn’t distract you from how good the BetRivers online sportsbook is.
Bonus Information & Promos
We were expecting a highly competitive welcome offer from Rush Street, given they will want to capitalize on their head start in the state, and with at least two other operators set to enter the market during October 2019 and we haven’t been disappointed. New players signing up at https://betrivers.com/ can get a $250 free matched bonus. Use BetRivers promo code Indiana 250MATCH on sign up to claim the offer. The no deposit bonus casino promo code is not available in Indiana as only online wagering is allowed.
Gambling Problem? Call 1-800-9-WITH-IT. Playable only in Indiana. Must be 21+.
BetRivers run a rewards club that you can join and access on the mobile site, apps, and also the website. It is called iRush rewards. Every time you make a wager with the operator, you will earn Loyalty points and Bonus store points. You can save and use these rewards and use them online and also in a bonus store. You can claim luxury gifts, get access to exclusive VIP events, and a range of other prizes, it is a great option, especially if you wager there anyway. It’s free stuff!
Check out what other IN Sportsbook bonuses are available with our guide. There isn’t currently a sportsbook reload bonus from BetRivers Indiana available at the minute, but this may change in the future.
Sportsbook Features – what can players expect?
Rush Street’s retail Sportsbook in Indiana has been going down well with bettors since opening its doors in early September, and we’re pleased to say the company has essentially transferred its retail offering to the BetRivers app.
Game lines, in-play wagering & sports wagering choices
That has to be a good start, and the fact that Kambi is behind the betting platform is another massive plus. The company’s software can be found littered through a wealth of top-notch sports betting and casino sites. Kambi is the software developer behind a lot of online Sportsbooks & casino sites and provides one of the most versatile and reliable wagering platforms on the market. So with that, you know you are in good hands. They include playsugarhouse.com, so if you’ve ever visited that site or downloaded the SugarHouse NJ app, the BetRivers app will have a familiar look to it. If not, just imagine a smooth interface and a cool design, and you will have it.
So when it comes to looks, we can’t fault this app, and, having given it thorough testing on both iPhone and Android, we’re impressed with how it allows us to wager on the move. The design is pretty on point. It is clean and fresh with a very easy to use set up. If this is your first time wanting to bet on your mobile, you will find it very easy to do.
How do you place bets on the BetRivers iOS app? Well, you do need a player account before you can place a bet, and it also needs to have funds in it. Join up at https://betrivers.com/ if you don’t yet have a playing account. Once you have that, it’s a simple matter of finding the sport you want to bet on. Tap the menu on the left and access the Sportsbook. There is a small menu on the left under the logo called more sports. If you tap on here, another menu will display with the full list of opportunities. Select your sport, then the game, and tap the odds/line box. This will add your selection to the bet slip where you can enter your stake. Enter the wager amount and press place bet.
You can keep track of all your bets in the account section on the app. This is available on the official website as well. Navigation across the platform is easy for sure, and the tie-in with Kambi ensures that you won’t lack for wagering options on just about every sport that matters. The four major U.S. leagues are covered in-depth, of course, but there’s also a surprising number of options for some of the more niche sports.
Here’s a full list of sports you can bet on:
- Football
- Baseball
- Basketball
- Hockey
- Boxing
- Tennis
- Golf
- Athletics
- Handball
- Motorsports
- Snooker
- UFC/MMA
- Motorsports
- Soccer
- Cricket
- Cycling
- Rugby League
- Rugby Union
- Australian rules rugby
- Darts
That’s enough sports to keep 95% of bettors happy. One of the great things about Indiana sports betting is that you can also bet on local college teams thanks to Indiana’s law, which allows wagering on NCAA sports, unlike the laws in some other US states. If you are looking for an app where you can place horse racing bets, you would be better looking at the offering from TVG racebook mobile app. You can read more on Horse racing in the state with our Indiana Horse racing guide.
College basketball is massive in the Hoosier State, and it’s safe to say that anyone looking to wager on the Indiana Hoosiers, Fighting Irish, and Purdue Boilermakers in the coming months won’t be disappointed.
In addition to the traditional spreads, totals, and Moneyline betting options, we found a tasty variety of team and player prop bets. That’s always the mark of a top sportsbook, and we had no complaints either with the lines on offer, as these were generally competitive, and there were enough ‘weak’ ones to exploit.
Here are some other features that you’ll find on the BetRivers app:
Live betting – betting in-play throughout the game has taken the US by storm and any sportsbook hoping to see plenty of action and stay around has to deliver a quality product. That’s not been lost on Rush Street as we found live wagering available for just about every sport and game taking place, with lines updating in real-time. There was no shortage of wagering options either, and we encountered no bugs during what was a fluid experience overall.
Buy out – we’d be surprised if the option to settle our bets early wasn’t available on the BetRivers app, given this feature has quickly become an essential tool for bettors. It may be true that cashing out doesn’t offer much in the way of value as the amount offered is skewed in the books’ favor, but it can work to your advantage if the timing is right, either securing you some winnings or reducing any potential losses. Read more on Cash out with our guide.
Jackpot Parlay – Select the sports you want to bet on and select multiple sports to build a combination bet of several selections. You can potentially win up to $99,999.99!
Get Started guide – An excellent place for new bettors to start. A comprehensive guide to using the site, app and explains in detail the different bet types available
Where could the app be improved?
The overall design of the app is pretty good, but we feel more could be done with the design. The more sports menu seems to be in a strange place, considering it is probably the most crucial menu on the app. The app can be slightly slow sometimes, and lines are not always the quickest to update. We are hoping as the app grows in popularity and more emphasis is put on players using it, these issues will be rectified. In our opinion, a better placed Live Betting option should also be available. These are simple design fixes and not the end of the world but would make it a slightly faster and more enjoyable experience.
Most serious bettors use more than one sportsbook app as they don’t always have the same features, bonuses, and lines on, so be sure to check out and even download at least 1 or 2 other Indiana Sportsbook apps.
Where can you use the BetRivers sportsbook?
The operator is a well know and trusted sportsbook that is now legal to use in several US states, with more on the way soon. As it stands, you can bet using the operator in:
- Indiana
- Pennsylvania
- Colorado
- Illinois
- Michigan
- Iowa
- Virginia
Support
BetRivers do offer a few ways to contact their support team should you have any issues. There is live chat available every day from 9.30 am till 2 am. You can access this by tapping the little speech bubble called chat in the bottom left on the support tab. There is email support available too. We generally prefer to use live chat as most issues usually are quite simple and can be handled pretty quickly. You can also reach out to them on Twitter @BetRivers.
Banking & cashier options
The BetRivers app offers bettors a good number of mainstream cashier options, and the latest SSL encryption technology ensures that any transactions are completely safe and secure. Here’s the full list of options:
Bet Rivers Illinois
Deposit:
- Wire Transfer
- MasterCard
- Visa
- Prepaid Card
- Neteller
- Electronic Check
- PayPal
- Bank Wire
- Cash at Cage at French Lick Casino
Withdrawals:
- Wire Transfer

What about withdrawals with BetRivers? How long do they take? Times vary according to the withdrawal method, but you can get your winnings in:
- BetRivers Play+ Card – funds will be available immediately
- Online Banking/ACH – 2 to 5 business days
- Check by post – 10 to 14 business days
- PayPal – 2 to 5 business days to process, then instant
Nothing is more important to bettors than getting paid, and, from our experience, the longest we had to wait for a withdrawal to find its way back to us was five business days, while PayPal was almost instantaneous. Using PayPal as a deposit method is one of the most popular for bettors in the state due to its speed and convenience. You can see what other IN sports betting apps accept PayPal with our guide.
Not the first for Rush Street
The company has a tradition of firsts. It launched the online casino in NJ, PlaySugarHouse.com, in New Jersey three years ago. Two years later, it was the first company to offer a fully integrated online sportsbook and casino in the Garden State. In May 2019, PlaySugarHouse became the first online Sportsbook in Pennsylvania. Having been among the first to open a retail sportsbook in Indiana, it’s no surprise to see them steal a march on their rivals for mobile betting too.
BetRivers Illinois was also one of the first online sportsbooks to go live in the neighboring state and has proven to be a hit with IL sports betting fans as well. Rivers online sportsbook is one of the fastest-growing sports betting brands in the US and will offer sports betting in more states in the near future.
Our final thoughts
It’s still very early days for legal sports betting in Indiana. Still, everything is in place for the market to grow exponentially, aided by statewide mobile betting and an operator-friendly tax rate of 9.75% (it’s as high as 36% in PA).
The latter should ensure plenty of competition for Rush Street Gaming before too long, and for that reason, it was vital for them to hit the ground running. In launching this app, they’ve set the bar high, in our opinion, and we’re pretty sure that fellow Hoosier bettors will agree.
So, if you’re physically located inside Indiana, aged 21+, and like to wager on your favorite sports, there’s every reason to download the BetRivers app today, it’s a much more user-friendly app than the one from FanDuel sportsbook.
Just let us know your thoughts on the new app either on Twitter or get in touch.

On June 18, 2020, BetRivers launched their mobile sports betting app in Illinois. Although the timeline for mobile sports betting in Illinois was expected to be delayed, the state moved to speed up the process and get betting going. BetRivers Online Casino moved quickly on the news, and became the first legal online sports betting site in Illinois.
That said, online registration in Illinois has been a bit of a back and forth process. Originally, if you wanted to sign up with the only online sportsbook in Illinois, you had to visit Rivers Casino Des Plaines to complete your BetRivers IL signup. Thankfully, the in-person requirement was scrapped, but expected to continue moving forward). This means that you can register at BetRivers IL online, from anywhere in Illinois!

PA sports betting is on the rise after being ruled legal so the time to get in on the PA sports betting action is now.

Rush Street's partnership with French Lick Casino made it possible for them to launch Indiana sports betting with the BetRivers Indiana Sportsbook.

Here, you will be presented with all the games and matches within that sport. Each will have different betting options.
Once you select a sport, game, and bet type, you will enter the amount of your wager. This will automatically be added to the bet slip. You can add as many as 12 picks to a bet slip at any time. On your bet slip, you will be able to toggle between singles, combinations or parlay, and system. Once all wagers have been entered, simply click on PLACE BET and your wagers will be placed.

Keep in mind betting lines are subject to change at any point before the sports event begins.
Other BetRivers Sportsbook Offers
After you have taken advantage of the BetRivers welcome bonus, you can enjoy ongoing promotions. One of the current offers is the MLB Stat Stacker Sweeps. With every $50 placed on single playoff games, you will earn a raffle entry to a drawing where you can win up to $10,000.

Sports Betting Markets
BetRivers online sportsbook boasts a nice selection of betting markets. While American football, baseball, and basketball are wildly popular, so are tennis, hockey, and rugby. Many of these sports boast several different leagues and the brand offers odds on them.
For instance, the betting menu gives you dozens of leagues when you select on the “Soccer” link. Each individual game within those leagues features several dozen betting options. The number of betting opportunities is staggering.
Choose from baseball, American football, tennis, UFC/MMA, basketball, golf, hockey, athletics, Australian rules rugby, boxing, cricket, cycling, darts, handball, motorsports, Rugby League, Rugby Union, snooker, and soccer.
If there is a major sporting event like Wimbledon, March Madness, or the Kentucky Derby, the brand will post odds. You can wager on moneylines, spreads, totals, and much more. Bet on single games, build parlays, concoct a combination bet. You can also place bets when games are still underway. The possibilities are almost endless when it comes to betting lines and odds. Betting can be super specific such as betting on player futures. In addition, depositing and withdrawing funds are simple and safe.
With the BetRivers Casino bonus code and the number of available sports bettors have, things are looking up.
BetRivers Odds
Every seasoned sports bettor knows how important it is to get the best odds. Most sports bettors who actually make money over the long run just barely eke out a profit. The bookmaker at BetRivers PA offers competitive odds.
You will find their odds to be right in line with Pennsylvania’s other bookmakers. However, the odds offered by Pennsylvania bookmakers are generally inferior to many of the big offshore operators.
Let’s take the Week 1 NFL match between the Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets. BetRivers online sportsbook has the following odds:
- Buffalo Bills +3 -105
- New York Jets -3 -117
Meanwhile, one of the worlds largest and most reputable online bookmakers offers:
- Buffalo Bills +3 -101
- New York Jets -3 -110
This is a significant difference. Still, this shouldn’t reflect badly on the brand because similar discrepancies exist with the other Pennsylvania bookies. One of the reasons for this is the high tax rate on the state’s bookies. Naturally, the added cost is partially passed on to the bettors. Pennsylvania’s high sports betting tax rate has been heavily criticized but don’t expect changes any time soon.
Streaming and Live Betting at BetRivers
Live betting has been a standard feature for a few years, and BetRivers PA has plenty of in-play betting opportunities.

Our Verdict
After closely examining what BetRivers online sportsbook has to offer, we’ve assigned an average rating of 4.5. Their welcome offer and available betting markets are on par with other bookmakers. So are the BetRivers odds the bookie offers. As mentioned, the regulatory environment and high taxes are things that bookmakers and their customers will have to live with.
BetRivers has an average amount of payment options. However, the score would be boosted if they add more like they say they will. The live streaming feature and their BetRivers mobile app give them some added points. Especially live streaming, which makes live betting more appealing. Like most online casinos and online sportsbooks, BetRivers does not charge fees to maintain your account. BetRivers mobile app is one of the better sports betting apps on the market.

The customer service is a bit of a disappointment. It’s not just the operating hours, a bookmaker like this should have telephone support. This isn’t to say the staff are to blame. They are professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. Overall, there is a lot to like about the BetRivers bookmaker, but there’s room for improvement.
