New York Legal Online Gambling 2022

I'm afraid not. To ensure that their services are not accessed from a region that has not yet legalized online gambling, New Jersey's Internet casinos and poker rooms utilize geo-location tracking technology to determine whether or not a player is physically located within the state's borders. You would have to travel over the state border to NJ in order to access their online gambling opportunities. You can access legal offshore gambling sites from New Jersey anytime you want, 24/7.

This is really hard to predict which could only be based on the current status of efforts to push through an initiative that would allow state licensed online gambling in the state, such as the recent mobile wagering bill. We do see the state recognizing the value of its gambling industry as it approves brick and mortar expansion through allowing commercial casinos and domestic wagering options to emerge.

New York is pretty gambling friendly at this time, and has the support necessary to enter the online gambling market. We just don't know how long the process will take.

Not at all. State-regulated online gambling will simply expand your existing range of options. What some players don't enjoy about state-regulated gambling sites is that most of them require a physical visit to their brick and mortar destination in order to fund your account or register for an account. This is a genuine effort to curtail underage gambling and ensure the integrity of your financial investment, though some players find it far too inconvenient when compared to the offshore sites that allow all of that to be done online.

As long as you limit your gambling activity to only those sites that are legally licensed and regulated offshore, you will not be breaking any state or federal laws and will not get into any trouble legally. The state's laws do not criminalize participating in regulated offshore online gambling. We caution you to always make sure you are visiting a legal gambling destination to avoid becoming the victim of fraud or theft.

New York's minimum legal gambling age policies are quite liberal, allowing most players access to gambling entertainment at age 18, with the exception of some tribal casinos that offer poker and betting which require players to be 21. The minimum gambling age to participate in lotteries, bingo, pari-mutuel wagering on horses, charitable gambling, racinos, video gaming machines, and at non-alcohol serving casinos is 18.

New York submitted a bill this year to the state legislature which would allow for state-wide betting on mobile devices. However, this expanded betting form was cut out of the state's budget last minute and many expect that this form will not come about this legislative session. We will update this section as new information arrives.
