Not all horse betting platforms and apps are available to wager on from the state of Iowa.  NYRA Bets is NOT available from that state at the moment.  Alternatives include our friends at BetUS, who have been serving the horse betting public since 1994.

Why Can't I Bet With NYRA Bets From Iowa?

In Iowa, the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission oversees gambling activities, including horse race wagering. NYRA Bets has not obtained a license here and is therefore not approved to operate within the state.

Residents of Iowa have a choice between regulated sites such as FanDuel Racing, offshore (internationally licensed) race books, and even local bookies, assuming you can find one.
