The move by Pennsylvania to legalize online gambling could have repercussions beyond the Keystone State.
As the first state to legalize online gambling since 2013, Pennsylvania is expected to have a number of positive impacts. One of those is possibly restarting the momentum from 2013, when Nevada, Delaware and New Jersey all launched legal online gambling sites.
Among the ways Pennsylvania can make a difference is by spurring on legislative efforts in other states and increasing online poker liquidity through interstate agreements.
But Pennsylvania should also help on another front that has dogged the current legal markets: payment processing.
