Gov. Burgum gambling compacts with North Dakota tribes to allow Vegas-style gaming and lower legal gambling age

Gov. Doug Burgum has signed an agreement package with North Dakota’s Native Indian tribes that will allow online Class III casino-style gaming in addition to lowering the legal gambling age from 21 to 19 at tribal-owned casinos. The state-tribal agreements, known as compacts, will also allow gamblers on reservations to use credit or debit cards to place bets.

The five new gambling compacts will also allow online sports betting via mobile devices used in reservation areas but not outside of the reservation boundaries.
