UIGEA (Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act)

« Back to Glossary Index

The UIGEA, a stringent gatekeeper of American borders in the realm of online gambling, was enacted in 2006 to put the brakes on the free flow of funds to offshore gambling sites. It’s the law that says, “Not on our watch,” making it a formidable force for any operator venturing near U.S. shores.
