New Jersey § 5:5-197

§ 5:5-197.

a. A person within this State shall not be permitted to open a fixed odds wagering

account, or place a fixed odds wager through the fixed odds wagering system, except

in accordance with federal law and this act, and through the fixed odds wagering licensee,

and no entity, other than the fixed odds wagering licensee, shall accept a fixed odds

wager from a person within this State. A person may not place a fixed odds wager unless the person has established a fixed

odds wagering account with the fixed odds wagering licensee and is physically present

in New Jersey at the time of placing the account wager, except that persons physically

present at a racetrack or off-track wagering facility may place a wager through a

teller at a window without opening a fixed odds wagering account. To establish a fixed odds wagering account, a person shall be physically present

in New Jersey at the time of establishing the wagering account, at least 18 years

of age, except that any person on the self-exclusion list established pursuant to

section 1 of P.L.2002, c. 89 ( C.5:5-65.1 ) shall be prohibited from establishing a fixed odds wagering account. A resident of this State who has established an account with a fixed odds wagering

licensee may place a fixed odds wager through the licensee while physically present

in New Jersey, or while physically present in another jurisdiction if placing such

a wager is not inconsistent with the law of that jurisdiction or with federal law. The division shall develop protocols to accurately determine a person's location

within the State to effectuate the provisions of this subsection. b. The fixed odds wagering account shall be in the name of a natural person and may

not be in the name of any beneficiary, custodian, joint trust, corporation, partnership,

or other organization or entity. c. A fixed odds wagering account may be established in person, by mail, telephone,

or other electronic media, by a person completing an application form approved by

the division. The form shall include the address of the principal residence of the prospective

fixed odds wagering account holder and a statement that a false statement made in

regard to an application may subject the applicant to prosecution. The fixed odds wagering licensee shall verify the identification, residence, and

age of the fixed odds wagering account holder using methods and technologies approved

by the division. d. The prospective fixed odds wagering account holder shall submit the completed application

in person, by mail, telephone, or other electronic media, including the Internet and

wireless devices, to the fixed odds wagering licensee or such other person or entity

as may be approved by the division. The fixed odds wagering licensee may accept or reject an application after receipt

and review of the application and certification, or other proof, of age and residency

for compliance with this act. e. Any prospective fixed odds wagering account holder who provides false or misleading

information on the application is subject to rejection of the application or cancellation

of the fixed odds wagering account by the fixed odds wagering licensee without notice. f. The fixed odds wagering licensee shall have the right to suspend or close any fixed

odds wagering account at its discretion. g. Any person not in good standing with the division shall not be entitled to maintain

a fixed odds wagering account. h. The address provided by the applicant in the application shall be deemed the proper

address for the purposes of mailing checks, fixed odds wagering account withdrawals,

notices, and other materials. i. A fixed odds wagering account shall not be assignable or otherwise transferable. j. The fixed odds wagering licensee may at any time declare the fixed odds wagering

system closed for receiving any wagers on any race or closed for all fixed odds wagering.
