BetMGM UK is one of the newest betting apps on the market, officially launching in August 2024. But while the name is fresh to UK punters, the brand is anything but inexperienced.
It's backed by MGM Resorts, one of the largest gambling operators in the world, and powered by LeoVegas, an award-winning mobile platform. LeoVegas has been named "Mobile Operator of the Year" multiple times at the EGR Operator Awards and Global Gaming Awards.
The result? A well built, reliable betting app that's already gaining traction with UK users and here is how it's rated:
With an overall score of 4.5 stars across both platforms, the BetMGM app ranks among the highest-rated betting apps in the UK, especially impressive given how recently it launched.

If you would like to find out how to register on the BetMGM App, you can follow our step-by-step guide below:
Once you have opened the app - or entered the website - tap the golden 'Sign Up' button in the top right-hand corner of your screen to begin the process.
Initially, you will be taken to a screen to enter your email address and password for your account, but this is also where we recommend selecting your sign-up offer (as shown below).
Once you have chosen your account details, the next step is to enter your personal information including full name, date of birth and full address. Additionally, here is where you can add a deposit limit to your account.
Finally, you will be asked if you would like to receive any marketing from BetMGM, and also confirm that you have read the Terms and Conditions as well as Privacy Policy. Once this has been done, tap the gold 'Create Account' option.
We have tested the deposit and withdrawal processes on the BetMGM app, but since they are rather comprehensive subjects, we have dedicated pages for you to check out. On those, you can find all the details about the methods, the step-by-step process and other helpful tips.
When loading onto the app, you will be presented with the sports options immediately, and BetMGM will showcase sports that you have taken a previous interest in primarily, and then also offer you the highest-rated sports after this.
From this home page, you are also given five key options at the bottom of the screen. Firstly is the 'Featured' screen, which is the initial screen of the app once you have signed in, additionally, you are offered 'All Sports', 'In-Play', 'Golden Goals' and the 'My Bets' sections.
Whilst the amount of sports available is fantastic, the layout of them is poor in the 'All Sports' section. At the top of the screen, there are five highlighted sports, so to speak, and then there is a drop-down menu to the right of this, which allows you to browse the available sports.
Fortunately for customers, the 'In-Play' area is much easier to navigate for the user. As is the normality with this section of a betting app, you will be shown several ongoing fixtures, but to select your sport, you can use the scrollable tab at the top of the screen, as shown below.
Navigating the Football area of the app is very easy, as is a commodity with bookies, the fixtures are laid out by their rankings, so to speak, so at the time of writing this, the European Championship fixtures are highlighted. Nevertheless, the range of leagues available is fantastic, and you can bet on Esports fixtures to the Finnish second division.
Another big part of mobile football betting is the ability to create Bet Builders, and whilst the display is different to how others may be, it is still an enjoyable interface. Not only is there a large range of markets, but they are presented well, which makes the experience better for punters. However, the options are not as broad as some of their competitors, which means it would be difficult to suggest this is the best, or even among the best, for placing Bet Builders.
Golden Goals is a fantastic promotion from BetMGM too, which allows customers to get a free chance to win money on the app. Whilst this is a commodity on most apps, having it presented so easily is rare, and we can appreciate this.
Horse racing betting on the app is not as enjoyable as other apps if I'm being completely honest. Fixtures are easy enough to find, but it is certainly easier through other bookies, and the range of racecourses is also welcomed.
Given that BetMGM's roots are deep within the Casino industry, it is understandable why the app hosts such an extensive selection of slot, table and card games. Not only does the app promote a classic Casino experience, but it also promotes a 'Live Casino' page, which can be enjoyed by Casino players.
It is very easy to navigate the Casino area of the app, and there are several different types of games available. BetMGM offers 'Slots' games, 'Jackpots' games, 'Table' games and also 'Megaways games - promoting popular games, such as 'Big Bass Splash' and 'Blackjack' within each section.
On the Live Casino page, it is easy to find several classic live games, such as live Roulette, Blackjack, Poker and Baccarat. However, it is also easy to find live Gameshows, such as 'Crazy Time' and 'Monopoly Live'.
If you need customer support from BetMGM, it is easy to find it. Simply head to the Menu tab in the top left corner of your screen - which will be shown by the three horizontal lines - and then select the 'Support' option from the menu.
From here, you will instantly be taken to a Live Chat with BetMGM's Virtual Assistant rather than being presented with a FAQ area. This is not a bad thing, though.
The Assistant will ask that you provide information about your issue whilst you are connected to a Customer Support Advisor, but in our experience using the app, before we finished typing a hypothetical query, we had been connected to an advisor.
For some people, they may prefer to search for the FAQ section, but with a Live Chat as quick as BetMGM's it is a fantastic Customer Support area that we rate very highly.

When I first used the app to try depositing and withdrawing, I initially had a few problems with the application, where it loaded slowly, or I could not easily navigate to certain areas of the app. However, in the time following this, my experience on the app has been very pleasant.
Navigation around the app is very easy, and you can quickly find what you are looking to bet on once you have opened the app, unlike some apps where it is challenging to navigate certain areas.
Unfortunately, there are limitations with some areas of the App such as the limited navigations of the Horse Racing sections and the poor Bet Builder offers. But, as an actual App, which is what we are reviewing, there are a lot of positives with BetMGM, and it is easy to see why it has quickly risen in popularity.
