Verdict

Across our scoring rubric, BetRivers edges Sporttrade with a 4.5/5 rating versus 4.4/5. BetRivers (Rush Street Interactive) has been live in Colorado since launch day and pairs the sportsbook with one of the more generous loyalty programs; iRush Rewards; that includes free-to-play games and consistent reload offers for active bettors.

Best move: try both. Welcome offers are one-time, so claiming each operator's promo lets you compare apps with real money before settling in.
