What to Check Before You Play

Identity Checks

The FATF standard sets customer due diligence for casinos, including internet casinos, at transactions of USD/EUR 3,000 or more (FATF). The EU’s AMLR sets EUR 2,000 for gambling providers from 10 July 2027 (Bird & Bird; Deloitte). Local rules and operator limits can differ.

What It Means for Players

Paying with crypto does not make gambling legal. If it is not lawful where you live, do not play. The house edge applies to every bet (Wikipedia; TheGameHaus).

Set limits first. Use deposit and loss limits in your account settings, and check that online gambling is legal where you live. If gambling is causing you harm, BeGambleAware and GamCare offer free, confidential support.
