BetAmerica is the sportsbook, horse racing and casino brand owned by iconic Churchill Downs – and it is soon to be rebranded as TwinSpires.
As the home of the Kentucky Derby for about 150 years, brands don’t come with more history or betting trust that this one.

BetAmerica currently has online and mobile sports betting in three states (New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Indiana), with more likely to follow shortly.
The TwinSpires brand meanwhile is already live for mobile business in Colorado and Michigan.
The online product is really clear and simple to use – it has great messaging and navigation – which we don’t always find…
It’s also great to be able to get to all three products from the same place. Means you can bet on sports and the horses and play the tables pretty easily.
There are also a growing number of BetAmerica retail sportsbooks out there so you can enjoy the full sports betting experience.
In short, this brand offers a ton of variety and a genuine 24-7 betting experience. A good option for new sports bettors out there.

BetAmerica signup bonus: Bet $50, get $50 free
All U.S. online bookmakers are desperate for your custom – they see the huge potential in the market, and are willing to offer you something to get you on board.
This means there are a ton of great signup bonuses out there to be had for new sports bettors. You are not tied to just using one sportsbook, you can and probably should sign up with multiple.
As well as all the signup bonuses, having a range of accounts means you can shop round for the best odds on your pick.
The current BetAmerica signup bonus may not be THE most generous in the marketplace right now, but it is still well worth considering.
All you need to do to get it is sign up to register an account, and make your first real-money bet of up to $50. It the bet loses, you get your cash back as a bonus.
But remember, bonus funds expire after seven days – so you need to use it or lose it…
Is BetAmerica safe and legit
Hell yes, BetAmerica – or its new name TwinSpires – is owned by Churchill Downs, and has more than a century of trusted history behind it. There are few safer options out there.
