The Illinois Gaming Board (IGB) announced Monday that it would be adopting new rules to expand existing restrictions.
The restrictions mentioned are specifically those that target the advertising, marketing, and promotions for licensed casino, video gaming, and sports wagering operators. This includes a ban on advertising on college campuses and new requirements to protect the public, specifically young people and those with gambling problems.
“By adopting these measures, the IGB is building upon existing regulations to implement additional safeguards and standards that further protect the public and encourage responsible gambling habits,” said IGB Administrator Marcus D. Fruchter. “These regulations provide for clear, consistent, ethical, and transparent advertising and marketing guidelines for all casino, video gaming, and sports wagering operations under IGB jurisdiction.”
