Gaming Edge’s TL;DR
- The New York Assembly has approved a bill that would force licensed online sportsbooks to send automated monthly account statements to bettors.
- If it becomes law, this measure would standardize wagering summaries and push responsible gaming information to users in the nation’s largest online sports betting market.
The New York Assembly recently passed A10329 after an 11-0 favorable committee report from the Assembly Racing and Wagering Committee on March 11.
Sponsored in the Assembly by Democrat Rebecca Kassay, the bill would require mobile sports betting operators to deliver a monthly account activity statement via push notification within 15 days after each month ends.
The statements must include:
- Total deposits
- Total dollar amount wagered
- Number of wagers
- Total winnings and losses
- Net win/loss
- Time spent logged in
- Itemized list of promotional credits used
- Links to responsible gambling resources
- Access to lifetime wagering history
A Senate companion, S9415, sponsored by Sen. Joseph Addabbo, was referred to the Senate Racing, Gaming and Wagering Committee on March 10. If the Senate approves and Gov. Kathy Hochul signs it, the law would take effect Jan. 1, 2027.
Measure meant to identify problem gambling earlier
This creates a straightforward, recurring snapshot of wagering behavior without having to hunt through app menus.
Many sportsbooks already offer transaction histories, but automatic, standardized push notifications make transparency and responsible gambling messaging more prominent, helping identify problem play earlier.
For operators, the change means updating notification systems, reporting formats, and customer communications to meet the new required fields and delivery timing, an operational and compliance task that may carry development costs and auditing requirements.
Because New York is the largest online sports wagering market in the country, the policy could set a de facto standard other states or regulators consider when balancing consumer protection with market growth.
