How to deal with this kind of review rejection?

The app review we submitted was rejected:

Guideline 5.3.4 - Legal - Gaming, Gambling, and Lotteries

Your app offers skill-based gaming, which is not legal in all of the locations where your app is available.

Next Steps

To resolve this issue, please revise your app to:

  • Restrict the locations where your app can be used
  • Restrict the sale of your app to only the appropriate territories in App Store Connect

What should I do to pass the review?

Accepted Reply

You need to find which are those countries where skill-based gaming is forbidden.

This could help as they provide such a list of countries (to be checked) : https://docs.skillz.com/docs/legal-skillz/

Then, remove those countries from locations where your app is available.

Indicate, in the comments to reviewer, what you have done to comply.

  • Thank you for your answer!
