North Carolina commission advances sports betting rules ahead of 2024 launch
North Carolina’s State Lottery Commission approved basic rulemaking procedures as it prepared regulations for mobile sports betting, with the market required to launch before mid-June 2024. Deputy executive director Sterl Carpenter said the commission would meet the deadline; it also decided not to award a contract for an application system after reviewing four proposals and plans to issue a new RFP.
The commission’s decision means it will manage licence applications itself while preparing for the statutory launch deadline.
