Rule 775. (1) A sports betting operator and an internet sports betting platform
provider must make reasonable efforts to prevent a prohibited person from establishing
an internet sports betting account and not permit the prohibited person to place an internet
sports betting wager. This subrule shall not be construed to prevent an individual from
creating an internet sports betting account and depositing funds to such an account even if
they are prohibited from placing certain wagers.
(2) If a sports betting operator or internet sports betting platform provider detects, or
is notified of, an individual suspected of being a prohibited person who had engaged or is
engaging in prohibited internet sports betting, the sports betting operator or internet
sports betting platform provider, or both, must use reasonable measures to verify whether
the individual is prohibited or not. If the sports betting operator or internet sports betting
platform provider cannot establish by reasonable measures that the individual is
prohibited, the individual is presumed to not be a prohibited person for the purposes of
this rule.
(3) Upon verification of a prohibited status, the sports betting operator or internet
sports betting platform provider, or both, must do both of the following:
(a) Immediately prohibit access to the individual's internet sports betting account.
(b) Seize from the individual any winnings or things of value obtained from engaging
in internet sports betting.
(4) The internal controls of a sports betting operator or internet sports betting
platform provider must contain procedures for processing any winnings or things of value
confiscated or withheld from a prohibited person.
