Sports Betting in Nicaragua
Sports betting is popular in Nicaragua, but the sports betting industry is very poorly organized and regulated. One major reason for this is that gambling in the country has only been legal for a couple of years.

In 1979, when the Sandista government took power, all gambling in Nicaragua was banned. Now that the ban has been lifted, the industry is slowly coming back into its own, but it seems sportsbooks are moving slowest of all.

Most Nicaraguan sportsbooks, unfortunately, are underground illegal operations. One of the best official sportsbooks in Nicaragua is the Zona Pharaoh Casino in Managua, which offers a sportsbook and sports bar as part of its regular casino service.

Online Sports Betting in Nicaragua
Because of the lack of brick & mortar sportsbooks in Nicaragua, many players are turning to online sportsbooks.

While there are no sports betting websites actually run from within Nicaragua because of legal restrictions, there are plenty of internet betting sites in other places around the world, and many of these are happy to accept bets from Nicaraguan players.

While not all of these sites will offer Spanish language services, all will provide a broad variety of bets on many local and global sports matches. Players looking for a good sportsbook in Nicaragua should consider looking online.
