Sweepstakes gaming raises legal and regulatory questions at G2E
Sweepstakes gaming legality was debated at a Global Gaming Expo education session, with industry participants discussing oversight and consumer protections. Light & Wonder said it is monitoring the sector, while the American Gaming Association argued that sweepstakes casinos lack regulatory oversight. The report reports that such gaming is offered in 48 states, excluding Michigan and Washington.
The debate concerns how sweepstakes operators may be treated against regulated gambling requirements in US markets.
