New York is one of the biggest racing states in the country, and MyWinners customers there can now bet on all of it from their phone or desktop. This guide covers what you can bet on, how to set up your account, and how location checks work so you can keep betting when you travel.
What You Can Bet On in New York
Horse racing. Your account gives you full access to parimutuel betting on thoroughbred, harness and greyhound racing. That includes New York tracks like Belmont Park and Yonkers Raceway, plus US and international cards. You can place straight bets, exotics and multi race bets in the same app.
Reels Games. Reels Games give you slot style play, with each result based on real parimutuel horse racing results instead of a random number generator. You play with credits. One credit equals $1, and you can choose denominations of $10, $20, $50, $100 or $250. We pay winnings in US dollars. Reels Games run 24/7.
Contests. Contests are live for New York customers.
