I Live in Florida But Will be Traveling to New Jersey - Can I Bet Sports Online There?
Florida probably has more flights to and from the state of New Jersey than any other state. If you are living in Florida, can you bet online while visiting New Jersey? The answer is "Yes" provided you are physically within the state's borders. Geo-location technology is such that even as you are starting to cross the Lincoln Tunnel, none of the NJ-based sports betting apps will work.
Floridians may want to bet on a particular game while visiting New Jersey.
The registration process can be done while in Florida, however, betting with the NJ apps is only possible while in the state of New Jersey as noted above.
These apps are available by accessing the iTunes store or GooglePlay or both. Currently, PoinsBet is only available for downloading at the iTunes store.
Florida has more New Jersey transplants than any other state outside of those that neighbor it (i.e. New York). As such, most folks traveling here from New Jersey will be visiting family members with plenty of time to place bets via said app (or apps) as opposed to those who might be bogged down in business meetings.
Newark Airport has a significant number of flights to and from Miami via United and American, Fort Lauderdale via United, JetBlue and Spirit, West Palm Beach, Tampa and other cities.
