The entry as the Board writes it
The Board's current list is a document titled "Licensed Interactive Gaming Certificateholders and Authorized Interactive Gaming websites." Its file name carries the date 4.30.26, and the Board's page links it as the current list; the document has no date line of its own, so April 30, 2026 comes from the file name. Our client read it on November 11, 2026, after the Board's robots.txt allowed the pages.
Bally's Pennsylvania, LLC is the first row. Beneath its name the list says "No interactive gaming operator," which means the Board does not show an outside operator running games for this certificateholder. Two sites follow, each with the types of gaming authorized, the website, the mobile app and the date operations began:
| Website | App named | Types authorized | Operations began |
|---|---|---|---|
| pa.ballycasino.com | Bally Casino mobile app | Slots; table games | June 8, 2023 |
| play.monopolycasinous.com | Monopoly Casino mobile app | Slots; table games | July 17, 2025 |
The license box above this text shows the holder, the list date and the two sites in the register's standard layout. The Bally address is reached through ballycasino.com and the second through monopolycasinous.com.
Why a certificate and not a license
Pennsylvania's list uses the word certificate. It is held by slot machine licensees and qualified gaming entities, a group the list's introduction describes as Category 1, 2 and 3 slot machine licensees plus qualified gaming entities that were awarded an interactive gaming certificate. A company that holds one may offer the games the certificate authorizes on websites and apps the Board has authorized by name. The Board's August 15, 2018 press release about the first three certificates states what such a certificate covers: slot machine style games, table game style games, and poker played between players, with a $10 million license fee for each of those first three. Bally's Pennsylvania was not one of those three, and we did not find a Board document for its own approval.
The Bally's entry shows slots and table games and no poker, so poker is not part of what the list authorizes for this holder.
What a Pennsylvania resident can check
Anyone in Pennsylvania can compare what appears on a phone or in a browser with the list.
- The website address in the browser must match one on the list. An address that is not on it, even with the Bally name in it, is not shown as authorized by the Board.
- The list shows which brand names run under which certificate. Monopoly Casino is listed under Bally's Pennsylvania, LLC, not under a separate certificate.
- The start date on the list tells you how long a site has been authorized, not how it has performed.
Steps to check it yourself
- Open the Board's list through the link in the sources box.
- Find the row beginning Bally's Pennsylvania, LLC.
- Read the websites and apps listed beneath it and compare them with what you see.
- Look at the section called Former Interactive Gaming Sites at the end if a name is missing; retired sites are shown there, with the certificate they ran under.
A later copy of the document replaces this one, and the Board's page says which file is current. Our guide to checking an online casino's license shows the same routine for every state list.
Players and comparison pages
Two boxes below summarize what players write in the App Store and what one comparison page says about Bally Casino. The App Store listing we read is for a combined sportsbook and casino app called Bally Bet, a name the Board's list does not use, so the player summary describes that app. The comparison page does not discuss Monopoly Casino, so nothing there covers that second site.
Frequently asked questions
Is Bally Casino on Pennsylvania's list?
Yes. The Board's list, dated 4.30.26 in its file name, shows pa.ballycasino.com and a Bally Casino mobile app under Bally's Pennsylvania, LLC, with operations beginning June 8, 2023.
Who holds the certificate for Monopoly Casino?
The same holder. The list places play.monopolycasinous.com and a Monopoly Casino mobile app under Bally's Pennsylvania, LLC, starting July 17, 2025.
Does the list show an outside operator?
No. The list says "No interactive gaming operator" for this certificateholder.
What players say
Players who reviewed the combined Bally Bet sportsbook and casino app in the US App Store most often criticize support and payouts. Several describe chat queues that never connect them to a person, cashouts that sit for days despite a stated one-day window, and verification requests that arrive just as they try to withdraw. Others say a deposit was blocked on an evening when a time-limited offer was running, and one describes a long lockout with a balance still in the account.
Few of the reviews shown on the listing praise the app. The listing shows 4.6 out of 5 across 52,827 ratings, read on November 11, 2026, and these are single players' experiences.

What comparison sites say
One comparison page that reviews Bally Casino in Pennsylvania describes a game library centered on slots, with roulette, blackjack, baccarat, craps, poker, live dealer tables and daily bingo, and finds the variety thinner than at rivals, with some table game types missing. The reviewer says instant e-check and PayPal withdrawals are typically paid within a day, although the page's own FAQ mentions three to five business days for funds to reach a bank account.
The app is described as basic and slow to load at times, with no game filters, and as including a location check and chat. Support runs through a help center, email, live chat and phone. The page does not discuss Monopoly Casino. Comparison sites are often paid by the operators they review.
