Registering your details to bet online in MI

As you sign up, the sportsbook will likely ask for your Driver’s License and/or Social Security Number. This is two fold; for your security and to ensure you are of a legal age (21 or older) to bet in Michigan.

You will also need to confirm your location is indeed in Michigan. Each site will have its own way of confirmation, so make sure you enable your location to be detected.

Depositing money to bet online in MI

Now that you’ve signed up for your selected sportsbook in Michigan, you need to deposit money into the account to start betting. 

All of the books on our site come with sign-up bonuses, and often the more you deposit initially, the more you are rewarded with straight up.

Placing your bets online in MI

Let’s get it! You’ve created your account, deposited some money and you’re raring to get into online sports betting.

At first, the sportsbook site may look like it has a lot going on, but – don’t worry – you will be making plays like a seasoned bettor in no time.

Sportsbook sites usually have a menu, where you can find the list of sports that are available for you to bet on. More often than not, you will find major sports such as Football, Basketball and Baseball at the top of this list before other sports are listed from A to Z.

In NBA, you might be looking to bet on the Pistons making a run at the playoffs – save your money! – or Blake Griffin to have a big game. We’ve got a full guide on NBA betting, even if you’re (wisely) not willing to bet on Detroit.

To ensure your best chance of winning, use Dimers.com as your guide before placing any bet across any major sport.

Why? You’ll find out right now.
