But many are wondering how are they held accountable when there are issues, who gets to decide, and how can online patrons be made whole when these issues do arise. The Michigan Lawful Sports Betting Act of 2019 provides that “internet gaming operators” and “internet gaming platform providers” are regulated and licensed through this new regulatory scheme where they’re required to comply with several rules and regulations under the act and the Internet Gaming Rules promulgated from the act. Online gambling in Michigan was introduced in the Lawful Internet Gaming Act of 2019, which was coupled with the Lawful Sports Betting Act passed in the same year. While this new legislation is very exciting to residents, the legal and regulatory ramifications of this are still being worked out.
This includes online sports betting and casino games like poker, slots, and other casino games. Michigan is one of the few states that has legalized online gambling for citizens over the age of 21.
