Wyoming Lawmakers Propose iGaming Expansion to Add Online Casino Wagering

Wyoming lawmakers are exploring the addition of online casino wagering to the state’s gaming market with the introduction of House Bill 120. Sponsored by Rep. Jon Conrad, Robert Davis, and others, the bill aims to authorize iGaming in the Equality State, building upon the established gaming market fostered by Gov. Mark Gordon’s signing of sports betting measure House Bill 133 into law in 2021.

HB 120, introduced last week, proposes to regulate iGaming in Wyoming through the state’s Gaming Commission, which would be empowered to issue up to five interactive gaming operator permits. Operators seeking permits would need to pay an initial fee of $100,000, renewable every five years. Renewals would cost $50,000, with vendor permits requiring an initial fee of $10,000 and a five-year renewal fee of $5000.

The bill also allows operators in Wyoming to enter into reciprocal agreements with other jurisdictions, leveraging the state’s population of 584,000, the lowest in America. Revenue generated from statewide wagering would be subject to a 10% tax rate, with HB 120 stipulating that $300,000 of annual tax revenue should be allocated to problem gambling programs.

Wyoming’s move to consider iGaming follows a trend seen across the country, with other lawmakers also exploring similar initiatives. In Illinois, House Bill 2239 has been introduced to pave the way for iGaming by granting licenses to operators for an initial fee of $250,000. These licenses would allow operators to offer up to three skins, with annual renewals costing $100,000.

Incentive Games has been granted an interim gaming licence in Pennsylvania by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, effective immediately. The approval allows the B2B supplier to offer its real-money gaming products to licensed operators in the state.

KSA Files Over 4600 Reports Targeting Illegal Gambling Ads on Meta Platforms

In April, the Dutch Gaming Authority (KSA) has filed over 4600 reports with Meta regarding illegal advertisements. Combating illegal gambling offerings is one of the KSA’s priorities. Special attention is paid by the KSA to the marketing practices of the gambling companies, which frequently advertise on social media such as Facebook and Instagram. Therefore, the KSA monitors the volume of illegal advertisements.

Illegal practices

Illegal gambling providers place many advertisements on social media. In doing so, they use names and logos of well-known Dutch athletes and major brands to enhance their credibility. It is often difficult for consumers to determine whether a gambling provider holds a license. To protect consumers, the KSA therefore makes a strong effort to combat online advertising by illegal providers. The KSA does this, among other measures, by filing reports with major media companies more frequently.

Cooperation in alliance

To tackle illegal providers on social media, the KSA works closely with various companies and organisations. During a recent meeting of the alliance, current knowledge, trends and insights were shared. Advertising on social media was a key topic, as these platforms reach a large number of people.

The working group also discussed how companies can protect their trademarks and held a brainstorming session on what else is needed to tackle illegal providers on social media. The KSA will use the outcomes of the meeting in the coming period to take even better action.

Frustrating infrastructure

In the Netherlands, online gambling is only permitted with licensed providers. The KSA’s approach to illegal offerings ranges from imposing fines to disrupting the infrastructure used by illegal providers. The online world, and social media in particular, plays a major role within this infrastructure.
