Maryland SB456 regulates fantasy competitions, including operator registration, exclusion lists, and compulsive play mitigation.

Maryland SB456 modifies regulations around fantasy competitions, requiring operators to register with the State Lottery and Gaming Control Commission and pay an annual fee of $50,000. The bill defines "fantasy competition" and "fantasy competition operator," and prohibits operators from allowing individuals on the mandatory exclusion list to participate. It mandates the Commission to establish a voluntary exclusion list for individuals who wish to opt-out of fantasy competitions. Operators must report any participation by self-excluded individuals to the Commission.
