HB 874 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Mobile sports wagering; authorize.

HB 874 authorizes mobile sports wagering in Mississippi by defining "digital platform" as entities operating sports pools online via websites or mobile devices. It revises gaming laws to allow licensed operators to use these platforms, removes prohibitions on fantasy contests based on collegiate sports, and adjusts license fees based on platform revenue. The bill directly affects licensed gaming operators and mobile sports betting companies seeking to offer these services. It creates a legal framework for online sports wagering while updating existing definitions and fee structures in Mississippi's gaming code.
