Will I Be Able to Bet on UFC 229 Khabib vs. McGregor Online From New Jersey?

You will be able to bet on what sportsbook operators are saying will be the most wagered on UFC event ever online from the state of New Jersey: Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Conor McGregor (UFC 229).

In addition to the 8 apps on the New Jersey market, international websites offer a tax free option for betting online (NJ sites tax at 13%).

There are advantages to using the apps, most obvious being the convenience of access.

There are other disadvantages besides the tax.  Gamblers must be 21 (international sites allow 18 and older), payments can take up to 2 weeks (international sportsbooks have the ability to pay within a few hours directly into one's linked bank account), and the options for this fight are likely to be more substantial at some of the offshore books.

If you are a New Jersey resident traveling outside the state and happen to have the app on your phone, you won't be able to place a bet on UFC 229.

Now if you happen to be a resident of another state visiting New Jersey the night of the fight, you can upload the app onto your phone and place bets on the fight.  Requested payouts can be sent to your out-of-state address.  New Jersey law requires that all sports wagers are placed within its borders.  You do not have to be a resident of the state.
