NATIONAL RACING COMPACT TO MOVE TO WEB LICENSING
Press Release- March 17, 2021
The National Racing Compact Board has provided authorization to move forward with the creation of a new online licensing portal. In partnership with a local web development company, the National Racing Compact will begin the process of creating a new web platform during the 2021 calendar year with hopes of a possible fourth quarter launch. This improved system will allow licensees to apply for a National Racing License, add and pay for new states, and manage their existing National Racing License.

Outside of the one-time fingerprint requirement, the new system will automate the entire process and make managing and paying for state racing licenses fast and streamlined.
