What Tennessee Sports Gaming Act 2019 - Online-Only Sports Betting Licensing requires

The Tennessee Sports Gaming Act 2019 (Public Chapter 512; Tenn. Code Ann. 4-40-101 et seq.) established a unique online-only sports betting regime with no retail sportsbooks. The Tennessee Education Lottery Corporation initially administered licensing; a new Sports Wagering Advisory Council was created to oversee the industry. Operators pay a 20% tax on adjusted gross income. A mandatory 10% hold requirement (hold rate of wagering handle) distinguishes Tennessee from all other US sports betting markets. Sports betting launched 1 November 2020.
