Licensing Requirements for New US Casinos

 

When it comes to new online casinos, the situation of sites operating in the United States is a unique one.

Whilst globally renowned as a force in casino games and gambling, the US continues to impose strict restrictions when it comes to gambling both online and offline. In fact, the practice is only legal in a handful of states such as Nevada, Delaware and New Jersey.

In this article, we will take a look at licensing requirements for new US casinos, assessing how newcomers to the American online casino game go about securing a license to operate in the US.

Let’s get started with a look at the current legal situation of gambling in the United States.

Online gambling in the United States of America: The Current Legal Situation

Across the United States, the majority of forms of betting and gambling are illegal thanks to the Federal Wire Act. In recent times however, many campaigners and lobbyists for the gambling business have gained newfound hope of imminent legalization across the board.

A 2018 Supreme Court decision overturned a 1992 decision to outlaw sports betting across the nation, potentially opening the door just a tiny bit to the industry. Indeed, the fact that illegal bookmakers and card games throughout the USA are worth hundreds of billions of dollars per year makes this eventuality a seeming certainty.

With that said, for all of the noise around the legalization of gambling, there remains to be any real progress made on the legislative level.

How do new US casinos obtain a license?

For newcomers to the online casino game looking to operate in the United States, the route is a fairly simple one to understand, if not necessarily to follow through on.

Simply, three states have a legalized and regulated online gambling systems in place. These are Nevada, New Jersey and Delaware. Both California and Pennsylvania remain in discussions to legalize online gambling, yet this may take years to finalize.

Licensing Requirements in Nevada

Licensing Requirements in New Jersey

In New Jersey, the story is similar to that of Nevada. Since 2012, the state has offered it’s residents access to a wide range of new US casino sites offering everything from card games to slots and more.

Naturally, only players from NJ are able to access these sites, which include big names such as Bwin and 888.

Licensing Requirements in Delaware

As Super Bowl LIX approaches, set to take place at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans on Sunday, February 9, the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has urged sports fans and bettors to practice responsible betting and wager only through authorized, legal sportsbook operators.

“Each year, the Super Bowl unites millions of fans, football lovers, and bettors around the world. As we come together to watch the game, let’s remember the importance of responsible betting to guarantee a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone involved,” MGCB Executive Director Henry Williams said.

These are a few important tips that the MGCB is giving for bettors to keep in mind:

• Set a Budget: Establish a betting budget that aligns with your financial situation. Set realistic limits on how much you’re willing to wager and stick to those limits throughout the game.

• Bet Responsibly: Remember, sports betting is a form of entertainment, not a surefire way to make money. Only wager what you can comfortably afford to lose, ensuring it doesn’t impact your financial well-being or other obligations.

• Know the Rules: Familiarize yourself with the rules of sports betting, the odds, and the types of bets available. Educating yourself helps you make informed decisions and reduce potential risks.

• Use Authorized Sportsbook Operators: Always bet through legal, licensed sportsbooks for a secure and fair experience. Unlicensed sites can expose you to risks like identity theft, lost deposits, or unpaid winnings.
