PointsBet is an Australian company that has already made a splash in the Colorado sports betting market with generous promotions and an innovative new form of wagering known as PointsBetting that increases your wins (or losses) depending on how accurate your bet is.
For more traditional bettors they also offer all the standard fixed wager options you’ve come to expect from the sportsbooks in the Centennial State. PointsBet entered the CO market in November 2020 via its partnership with Double Eagle Hotel and Casino Cripple Creek.

Software and Signup
The initial signup process with PointsBet is extremely smooth in most cases and you can create a new account on desktop/laptop or via their mobile apps for iPhones/iPads and Android devices.
Like all sportsbooks operating within the jurisdiction of the Colorado Division of Gaming it requires name, address and the last four digits of your social security number to prevent identity theft and ensure all users are age verified (21 and older).
The app itself is slick and easy to navigate and placing bets is extremely straightforward.
Betting Info
PointsBet offers all the traditional Fixed Odds wagers you will see on a typical sportsbook such as:
- Moneyline
- Spread
- Total
- Futures
- Parlays
- Props
In addition you can try their innovative new product known as “PointsBetting“.
PointsBetting is a higher-risk, higher-reward option that pays out according to how accurate the wager is. The basic idea of PointsBetting is that the more correct your prediction is the greater your winnings will be and the more off you are in your bet the greater your loss.
For example, if your team wins by a large margin your payout is increased however conversely if your team loses by a wide margin then your loss increases in proportion to the margin of defeat.
PointsBet also offer the opportunity to early-cashout so you can lock in a win or minimize a loss.
