North Carolina lottery approves sports betting requirements

27 September 2024

(PRESS RELEASE) -- The North Carolina State Lottery Commission met Wednesday and approved requirements to open a Place of Public Accommodation for sports betting, new guidance on eSports, and received an update on pari-mutuel horse race wagering.

Places of Public Accommodation

The Certificate of Compliance for Permanent Places of Public Accommodations outlines the process to open a permanent in-person sports wagering facility and the requirements that must be met by an operator.

eSports

The commission's approved Electronic Sports Guidance provides the Commission's Gaming Compliance and Sports Betting Division's current approach to regulating wagering on electronic sports. A newly developed Petition for eSport Events or Wagers Form allows operators to make a request to add an eSport event to the state's sports wagering catalog. That form can be found on our website along with the updated Petition for New Events or Wagers Form for traditional sporting event request.

Pari-mutuel Wagering Update

The Commission received an update on the next steps to implement pari-mutuel horse race wagering. That includes a rulemaking process to set specific requirements for pari-mutuel online and mobile wagering operations. The Commission and staff continue to carefully work through the process efficiently and responsibly. There is no projected launch date at this time.
