Summary

The bill authorizes the State Lottery and Gaming Control Commission to set a regulatory limit on the amount of free promotional play a sports wagering licensee can exclude from its reported proceeds. After a licensee’s first full fiscal year, the excluded amount may not exceed a percentage of the prior year’s retained wagering revenue. This aims to ensure that promotional giveaways are reflected in the state’s wagering revenue calculations.
