New York Gaming Commission proposes biometric checks and betting safeguards
The New York State Gaming Commission proposed changes to sports betting rules in response to Governor Kathy Hochul’s request for biometric account log-ins. The proposals set 11 behavioural triggers for operator intervention, establish three stages of response and restrict the use of artificial intelligence to track customers; public comment runs through 15 May.
New York sportsbooks may need to introduce biometric log-ins and intervene when customers meet specified risk triggers.
