An Act To Protect Consumers By Prohibiting The Use Of Credit Cards In Sports Wagering

This bill prohibits sports wagering and internet gaming operators in Maine from accepting wagers made with credit cards. The law applies to both physical sports betting venues and online gaming platforms, requiring operators to refuse credit card transactions for all bets. Additionally, the bill mandates that state regulators include credit card restrictions in their operational rules and security requirements for both brick-and-mortar and digital wagering systems.
