Short Summary
This provision, part of the Connecticut Administrative Code, applies to electronic wagering platforms that exclusively provide fantasy contests. It requires these platforms to employ a geolocation system when a patron initiates payment of an entry fee for a fantasy contest. The geolocation system must have the capacity to detect the location of a patron’s device, check the location when submitting entry fees, and provide notifications when the location cannot be determined. Additionally, the system must notify the online gaming operator and the patron if the patron’s account is being accessed from geographically inconsistent locations. This provision aims to ensure compliance with geolocation and geofencing requirements for fantasy contest providers in Connecticut.
