With bans spreading, more casinos are pulling out of states, and some are shutting down. Here is how to protect yourself.
What usually happens
Casinos that withdraw from a state typically announce it, restrict new sign-ups and give existing players a window to redeem their balances. The details depend on the operator and the law.
What to do
- Read the announcement and follow the instructions.
- Verify your account and request redemption of eligible balances promptly.
- Save screenshots of your balance and messages.
- Do not use a VPN to get around location blocks.
Reduce your exposure
- Do not keep large balances sitting in accounts.
- Redeem regularly.
- Spread play across a few reputable casinos.
