Provides amounts remaining in inactive Internet gaming accounts will be abandoned property after three years under unclaimed property law.

Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill changes how money left in inactive online gaming accounts is handled in New Jersey. Currently, after a period set by the state, this money is split between the casino and a state fund. If this bill passes, money in accounts inactive for three years will be treated as unclaimed property, meaning it will go to the state's unclaimed property fund. Before closing an account, the casino must try to contact the account holder.
