New York lawmakers are moving to tighten reporting rules for mobile sportsbooks with a new bill that would force operators to send bettors a detailed monthly account statement.
Assembly Bill 10329 was introduced by M. of A. Kassay and adds a fresh requirement to the state’s racing and wagering law and would make sportsbooks share a full breakdown of each customer’s activity every month.
The proposal goes beyond basic win‑loss summaries and pushes operators to show deposits, wagers, time spent on the app, and any bonuses used. These statements would be delivered through push notifications and kept available inside each bettor’s account.
Responsible gambling rules expanded
The bill folds the new requirement into the same section of law that already covers responsible gaming obligations for mobile operators.
Current rules force sportsbooks to keep a public responsible-play page and submit an annual problem-gaming plan approved by the state. The new amendment builds on that framework by adding a monthly statement that every authorized bettor must receive.
The document must show total deposits, total wagers, winnings and losses, net results, number of bets placed, and the amount of time the bettor stayed logged in. Operators must also list any bonuses or free bets used during the month and include a clear link to state‑run support services, including the voluntary self‑exclusion program.
Bettors must also be able to view their lifetime wagering history through the same portal. The commission is instructed to create standard formatting rules and ensure the statements are simple to read.
Operators would have fifteen days after each month to deliver the report. The bill still has to go through the Assembly Racing and Wagering Committee before advancing to the floor and then finding its way to becoming law. If it passes, it would take effect January 1, 2027, giving the commission enough time to prepare.
A nationwide trend
While New York is just pushing to expand its responsible gambling laws now, other states have already hopped on the trend since. Massachusetts is often pointed to as the strictest example. Its gaming commission already forces operators to hand over a full account statement, though only when a customer asks for it.
The rule covers a full year of activity, but it does not require the kind of automatic, monthly push delivery that New York lawmakers are now pushing for.
New Jersey is also taking a different approach, with lawmakers looking to block the use of credit cards for gambling, while requiring each operator to appoint a responsible‑gaming lead with real authority over player‑protection policies.
New York has led the way on several measures, including advertising, and if this bill passes, we could see more states adopt it, in a push for a safer and more responsible gambling market.
