HB 682 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Mobile sports wagering; authorize.

HB 682 would have authorized mobile sports wagering in Mississippi by defining "digital platform" as entities operating sports betting via websites or mobile apps. It revised gaming laws to permit these digital services, updated licensing fees based on platform revenue, and removed a ban on fantasy sports contests featuring collegiate athletes. The bill directly affected sports betting operators seeking to offer mobile services and would have changed how such platforms are regulated under Mississippi's Gaming Control Act. It did not create new gambling but expanded existing legal frameworks to include digital sports wagering.
