Gambling History in New Jersey
New Jersey gambling has a rich history dating back centuries, with lotteries common until they were banned in 1844. The modern era began when voters approved a 1976 referendum limiting gambling exclusively to Atlantic City. Resorts International opened as Atlantic City's first casino on May 26, 1978, launching the city's transformation into America's East Coast gambling capital. The New Jersey Casino Control Act established strict regulatory oversight through the Casino Control Commission, creating one of the most heavily regulated gambling markets in the nation. Atlantic City grew to nine physical casinos, including legendary properties that defined the city's golden age.
The New Jersey Constitution permits casino gambling only within Atlantic City's geographic boundaries, protecting the city's gambling monopoly. In 2013, New Jersey pioneered online gambling (iGaming), allowing licensed Atlantic City casinos to offer online slots, table games, and poker. This bold move positioned New Jersey as a leader in online casino regulation. The state achieved another major victory in 2018 when it won a lawsuit dismantling Nevada's monopoly on legal sports betting, opening nationwide sports wagering. However, New Jersey's progressive gambling stance took a dramatic turn in August 2025.
Governor Phil Murphy signed Assembly Bill 5447 into law, specifically banning proxy betting and sweepstakes-style gambling and casinos while strengthening penalties for illegal gambling operators. The ban took effect August 15, 2025, with the Division of Gaming Enforcement ordering all sweepstakes casino operators to cease New Jersey operations within 72 hours. First offenses carry fines up to $100,000, with subsequent breaches rising to $250,000.
