Casinos online em Maryland

No regulated online casino. Maryland has repeatedly come close: HB 0017 was shelved in 2025, and in the 2026 session two Senate iGaming bills died at Crossover Day - the key measure SB 761 would have put a legalisation referendum to voters but Sen. Ron Watson withdrew it on 2026-03-13, leaving the framework bill without effect. Because Maryland's constitution requires a voter referendum for expanded commercial gaming, any legalisation needs a ballot question. Expected to return in the 2027 session (January-April). Regulator URL is the agency's gaming site; confidence medium (not fetched this session).

Retail since December 2021 and online since November 2022, regulated by the Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Agency with the Sports Wagering Application Review Commission (SWARC) awarding licences. Roughly 11 online operators live. College games may be bet; college player props are prohibited.

NO statutory ban as of 2026-09-17, but hostile. HB 295 - which would have made online dual-currency sweepstakes explicitly illegal with fines of $10,000-$100,000 and up to 3 years' imprisonment - passed the House of Delegates 105-24 on 2026-03-20; a companion bill also cleared the House, but neither received a Senate vote before adjournment in April 2026, so both died. Maryland's gaming regulators publicly backed the bills, arguing they were needed against hundreds of unlicensed sites reaching Maryland residents. Note that Maryland is on Stake.us's own restricted-state list (21 states), so major sweepstakes brands already geo-block Maryland by choice. A renewed ban attempt in 2027 is likely.

Maryland licenses no online casino of any kind, so offshore and crypto casinos are unlicensed and unregulated in the state. Regulators told lawmakers in 2026 that hundreds of unlicensed sites reach Maryland residents, but no specific offshore-operator enforcement action was identified in this session.
