Established in 1977, it is tasked with maintaining and promoting a strictly regulated, economically viable and safe gambling industry. The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement is the official institution overseeing all gambling-related matters in the states. Although all forms of online gambling are permitted, there are exceptions to the rule, that strictly define who can conduct, and who can use the services on offer. It was among the first states to amend gambling acts to allow cyber wagering within the borders, at a time when the rest of America is still affected by strict gambling bans. Forward thinking, liberal values, and an open-minded government ushered in a new age for gaming in New Jersey, which began in 2013 when internet betting was made legal and fully regulated by the governing law.
New Jersey is home to Atlantic City, the second most popular gambling destination in the whole of USA, where enthusiasts gather to enjoy world-famous casinos.
