That applies in West New York, a town in Hudson County, exactly as it does across the rest of the state.

How availability works
Why West New York Is Restricted: New Jersey Sets the Rules
Sweepstakes casinos are online services with no local premises, and they enforce availability at the state line. most major sweepstakes operators exclude New Jersey players, so most major platforms exclude New Jersey players — in West New York and everywhere else in the state alike. Operators enforce this through location checks and account verification, and attempting to route around a block with a VPN or a false address typically violates the platform's terms and can forfeit any prizes. Laws and operator policies change; our New Jersey state guide is where we track the current status.
