(New York).- The Empire State is one step closer to seeing online sports betting get off the ground, as the New York State Register has released the official set of rules and regulatory framework needed for the launch.
Overseen by the New York Department of State, the NY Register is responsible for establishing the legal guidelines and restrictions for a number of industries, and with operators chomping at the bit to open up shop, the formal release increases the likelihood that residents will find themselves able to legally wager online by this year’s Super Bowl.
Per the guidelines set forth by the New York State Gambling Commission, nine sportsbooks will be granted approval to operate legally in the state.
These nine licenses have all been conditionally approved, and while operators have been granted access to the market, there are still a few hurdles to clear before sites can go live.
Prior to any launch, state law requires that the servers being used to run mobile betting operations be physically located in the four commercial casinos offering in-person sports wagering. State Senator Joseph Addabbo, one of the most vocal advocates for bringing the practice to the state, has openly expressed his hopes to have this accomplished by the end of January. All that being said, no formal launch date has been established.
Anticipation for the launch is extremely high, as New York is expected to surpass neighboring New Jersey as the largest market in the United States. The marketing battle now intensifies, as operators look to establish themselves as the most popular sportsbook in the state.
