\n

How does responsible gambling tie in with this?<\/h2>\n
\n

Responsible gambling is crucial in ensuring the safety and well-being of customers.<\/p>\n

The US Gaming Control Board has implemented a range of guidelines that US sportsbooks should adhere to in order to protect customers’ well-being. Some of these initiatives include deposit limits, self-exclusion, readily available help, and profits being used to fund charity organizations including NCP Gambling.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Are betting sites licensed to operate in my country?<\/h2>\n
\n

In the US, gambling legislation is dictated by the state. Hence, some states have legal sports betting while some do not. All US-licensed sportsbooks must clearly show their license number, company registration details, and address in the footer of their website and in marketing emails.<\/p>\n

How are sites selected on LegalSportsbooks.com?<\/h2>\n

Our team looks at a wide range of factors but with a particular focus on customer safety.<\/p>\n

Such factors include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Fully regulated and licensed (this is a 100% requirement under US law)<\/li>\n
  • Fair payouts and deposit\/withdrawal fees<\/li>\n

  • Fair and transparent company<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
