United States Online Gambling Market Growth, Trends and Forecasts 2020-2025 - Live Casino Gaining Momentum
ResearchAndMarkets.com s offering. The United States online gambling market is projected to register a CAGR of 15.41% during the forecast period (2020 - 2025). The current legislation framework for online betting in the United States allows only bookmakers licensed in Nevada, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey to operate legally, as these are the four states where online betting is regulated
New Jersey is currently the largest market for regulated online gambling in the United States. Over a dozen legal and licensed online casino sites and poker rooms compete for an overall market that is worth more than USD 225 million a year. There are a number of sportsbooks and online sports betting apps live in the state.
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board has adopted PlayPause, a self-exclusion tool for internet gambling. It is the first deployment of PlayPause in the US with the solution being made available at no cost to operators and regulators through Conscious Gaming, a new non-profit organisation established by GeoComply. It enables regulators and operators in one state to securely identify self-excluded patrons who chose to participate in the programme with other participating US licensed gaming operators and regulators. Elizabeth Lanza, director of the Office of Compulsive and Problem Gambling for the Pennsylvania Board, said: “We are pleased to be the first state to join the programme. By integrating with this solution the industry and regulators can increase well-being efforts and advance the effectiveness of self-exclusion.”

The Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association is suing the commonwealth and the Pennsylvania Office of Open Records, alleging that it should not be subject to the state’s Right to Know Law.
The complaint, filed in Commonwealth Court on Friday, comes nearly 12 years after Pennsylvania’s Right to Know Law took effect and following what a PIAA attorney called a burdensome request. The PIAA has been considered a state-affiliated entity under the law since its inception, but it didn’t file a lawsuit over the designation until now.
