Gaming & sweepstakes · New York
Sweepstakes and gaming law questions we get about New York.
New York pairs its own registration and bonding rules with an attorney general's office that has a visible history of sweepstakes and promotions enforcement — the combination operators most often ask us to walk through before launch.

What we're usually asked
The New York questions that come up before anyone signs anything.
These are the questions, not the answers — the answer depends on your specific product and is worked out in an engagement, not on a web page.
Does this promotion need to be registered and bonded before it runs?
Are our disclosures adequate for how active enforcement here has been historically?
How does a redemption or loyalty mechanic change the answer?
