Prohibits sports wagering advertisements online and on television broadcasts in this State.
This bill prohibits sports wagering licensees and their agents from advertising sports betting services online (including mobile apps) or on television broadcasts within New Jersey. It directly affects licensed sports betting operators, their employees, and contracted advertisers who cannot post, distribute, or sponsor such ads on internet platforms or cable TV systems based in the state. Key provisions ban all online visibility of sports pool-related advertising and prohibit TV broadcasts of these ads through local cable services. The Division of Gaming Enforcement must create rules and enforce these restrictions, effective immediately.
