09.01.2022 Standard of travel When applying for a permit where "travel" is the prize, make sure your terms and conditions include a reference to the standard of accommodation (e.g. 4 stars) and the type of flight that is involved (e.g. Economy). The states look for this when assessing your application.

08.01.2022 Game of Skill vs Game of Chance Did you know that the difference between a game of skill (no permit required) and a game of chance (permit may be required) is in how the winners are selected? If the winners are selected randomly, it is a game of chance. Even if the method of entry involves some level of skill. Sometimes, you may think skill is relevant, but the states may interpret the winner selection as random. For example, a "count the jelly beans" competition is generally classified as a game of chance. Contact us to discuss if unclear.
