Pennsylvania lawmakers consider consumer safeguards for sports betting
Pennsylvania lawmakers are considering measures to reduce gambling-related harm, according to a report citing a Joint State Government Commission study. Options discussed include banning in-game microbets and VIP programmes, setting betting limits and restricting promotional offers; the Sports Betting Alliance president argued that safeguards are necessary for the industry to thrive.
Any adopted restrictions could change sportsbook product features, customer limits and promotional practices in Pennsylvania.
