The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement today published an ?FAQ? ? Frequently Asked Questions ? regarding the pending arrival of online gaming in the state.
The deadline for casinos to seek an Internet Gaming Permit is June 30. The deadline for filing completed licensing applications for all vendors is July 29.
?This filing deadline for completed applications for licensure will allow the Division time to complete the investigation and make an expedient determination of suitability for Internet providers and ancillary companies to commence Internet gaming. Entities that do not meet this deadline will have their proposals considered as received,? said DGE director David Rebuck.
Additionally, any game offered to patrons for wagering must be submitted to and approved by the Division?s Technical Services Bureau (?TSB?). All vendors, including ancillary vendors, are required to file a product submission on or before July 29.
?The objective of the TSB,? said the DGE press release, ?is to ensure regulatory compliance of all Internet gaming products, including games software, computer networks and required ancillary functions.?
Several ? but not all ? of Atlantic City?s 12 casinos are expected to file the required paperwork.
The main FAQ, of course, is ?when.? The law passed this year says the ?go-live? date is supposed to be between May 26 and November 26. The expectation is for the latter, but DGE notes that the Casino Control Commission can push back the deadline ?for good cause.?
In any event, DGE must give 45 days notice before the games debut ? so around Oct. 12 if the Nov. 26 deadline becomes the target date.
Other FAQs:
- no New Jersey residency requirements for foreign vendors or service providers.
- the only required position so far is an ?Internet games manager.?
- another ?key position? is the casino licensee?s ?IT security officer.?
- the ?primary equipment and data center? must be located on the premises of an Atlantic City casino.
