With the legality of daily fantasy sports [DFS] sites like DraftKings and FanDuel currently tied up in legal limbo for New York residents, Citigroup confirmed today that it is now blocking its customers in the state from transacting any business with either site. The bank confirmed the news to Bloomberg this afternoon, saying that the halt on DFS transactions will remain until the court reaches a decision on whether or not these sites violate the state’s laws against illegal gambling. Both DraftKings and FanDuel tell Consumerist that they are choosing to not issue a statement at this time. In all but a few states — Arizona, Washington, Iowa, Louisiana, and Montana — DFS sites had been operating as legal, thanks to a carve-out in the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act [UIGEA] of 2006. That law prevents financial institutions from transacting business with online gambling operations.
