038-6 Wyo. Code R. §§ 6-2 - Age and Identity Verification

(a) Only an individual who is eighteen (18) years of age or older and not a prohibited person may create a sports wagering account, deposit funds, or participate in online sports wagering. The sports wagering operator or sports wagering vendor must deny the ability to create a sports wagering account, deposit funds, or participate in online sports wagering to any individual who is under eighteen (18) years of age or is a prohibited person. This section shall not be construed to prevent a restricted patron from creating a sports wagering account and depositing funds to such an account even if they are prohibited from placing certain wagers.
(b) The sports wagering operator or sports wagering vendor shall employ electronic verification with respect to each patron's name, date of birth and Social Security number, or the last four (4) digits of the Social Security number, or an equivalent identification number for a noncitizen patron, such as a passport or taxpayer identification number, at the time of account establishment by a Commission-approved national independent reference company or another independent technology approved by the Commission which meets or exceeds the reliability, security, accuracy, privacy and timeliness provided by individual reference service companies.
(c) The sports wagering operator or sports wagering vendor shall refuse to establish an account if it is found that any of the information supplied is untrue or incomplete.
(d) A sports wagering operator or sports wagering vendor must use commercially available and demonstrable standards to confirm that an individual attempting to create a sports wagering account is not a prohibited person.
(e) A sports wagering operator or sports wagering vendor must periodically re-verify a patron's identification upon reasonable suspicion that the patron's identification has been compromised.
