Amending the act of December 19, 1988 (P.L.1262, No.156), entitled "An act providing for the licensing of eligible organizations to conduct games of chance, for the licensing of persons to distribute games of chance, for the registration of manufacturers of games of chance, and for suspensions and revocations of licenses and permits; requiring records; providing for local referendum by electorate; and prescribing penalties," in games of chance, providing for payment; and abrogating a regulation.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Local Option Small Games of Chance Act to require licensed eligible organizations to accept cash as a payment method for playing games of chance and allow them to establish their own policies regarding the acceptance of checks, money orders, and debit cards. Additionally, it abrogates a regulation (61 Pa. Code § 901.506) that is inconsistent with the new payment provisions. The bill aims to provide more flexibility for licensed organizations in accepting payment methods for small games of chance.
