Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the racing, pari-mutuel wagering and breeding law, in relation to mechanisms authorized sports bettors may utilize to fund their mobile sports wagering accounts
AI Summary
This bill amends existing law to restrict the methods by which individuals can fund their mobile sports wagering accounts, meaning accounts used for placing bets on sports through a mobile device. Specifically, it mandates that funds can only be deposited through automated clearing houses or electronic funds transfers from a personal bank account, wire transfers from a personal bank account, personal checks delivered to the betting operator, or in-person cash deposits at a casino or other approved location. This change removes previous allowances for credit and debit cards, and any other means previously approved by the commission, thereby limiting the payment options available to authorized sports bettors.
