On [date], the Ohio Casino Control Commission proposed amendments to Ohio Administrative Code (Ohio Adm.Code) 3775-16-03, which governs sports gaming accounts and their operational requirements. The proposed rule changes specifically amend paragraphs (E)(1) and (E)(7) of Ohio Adm.Code 3775-16-03 to remove credit cards as a permissible funding source for deposit-enabled accounts. This modification restricts the payment methods available to sports gaming account holders when depositing funds into their accounts. The amendment reflects a policy shift regarding acceptable deposit mechanisms for regulated sports gaming in Ohio, potentially affecting how players fund their accounts and the financial instruments operators must accept. The removal of credit cards as a funding option may impact both operators and players engaged in sports gaming activities in Ohio. Operators will need to update their account funding systems and payment processing infrastructure to comply with the revised requirements, while players will need to utilise alternative funding methods for deposits. Interested parties should monitor the Ohio Casino Control Commission's website at www.casinocontrol.ohio.gov for further information regarding the comment period, effective date, and final adoption of these proposed amendments. The Commission can be contacted at (855) 800-0058 for additional details regarding the rule changes.
