This bill amends existing gaming laws in Wyoming to raise the minimum age for engaging in online sports wagering and pari-mutuel wagering from eighteen to twenty-one years. It also clarifies the definitions of terms related to skill-based amusement games, distinguishing between "operator" and "vendor," and introduces new definitions for "establishment operator" and "game supplier." The bill specifies that no person under the age of twenty-one shall place bets or have access to advance deposit pari-mutuel wagering accounts, and it mandates that establishments operating skill-based amusement games must restrict access to individuals under twenty-one.

Additionally, the bill outlines various operational restrictions for skill-based amusement games, including limits on the number of games an establishment can operate and requirements for marking age-restricted areas. It also establishes a framework for licensing and permits, including fees for operators and game suppliers, and mandates that skill-based amusement games must bear a commission-issued decal. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
