  • Paid daily fantasy sports operates in Wisconsin, but no state DFS statute specifically regulates it: Wis. Stat. 945.01 defines a bet and its exclusions without mentioning fantasy contests, and sets no minimum age. No Wisconsin statute fixes a minimum age for paid fantasy contests, so operators set their own - check the operator's terms, and confirm with the state before relying on this.
