Bitcoin Casino Licenses and Certificates

Bitcoin Casino sites give safety assurance to the players in two ways: Certificates and Bitcoin Casino Licenses. This way online casino players make sure that they are in safe hands.

The licenses generally mean that the casino site has been checked by ownership and satisfied the legal requirements of the gaming authority. The most popular licensing jurisdiction is Curacao and more and more Bitcoin Casinos prefer them for licensing.

Certificates are on the other hand more about the game fairness. Certificates does not mean that the casino is licensed but the games they are offering is fair and the results that are generated are totally random.

Bitcoin Casino Licenses

Bitcoin Casino sites has been getting their Bitcoin Casino Licenses fixes mostly from Curacao. There is only one gaming site licensed in the UK but they have a different version for UK customers and does not offer deposits and withdrawals with Bitcoin. Than there are 3 more jurisdictions for Bitcoin Casino Licenses: Costa Rica, Kahnawake and Panama which are popular choices amongst US Friendly operators. Finally we will dig into Unlicensed operators which do not hold Bitcoin Casino Licenses.

• Curacao is one of the oldest online gaming license providers. Since 1996 Curaçao eGaming has provided eGaming License compliance services to online betting and casino sites. This is the most secure online gaming licenses for crypto sites out there.
• UK Gambling Commission was set up under the Gambling Act 2005 to regulate commercial gambling in Great Britain in partnership with licensing authorities. Only Sportsbet.io holds a UK license for their UK customers but they do not offer Bitcoin payments for them.
• Costa Rica is a popular choice amongst US Friendly operators. Many authorities claim that Costa Rica does not offer iGaming License any more so it might be a fake license if the casino or betting site is claiming to have a Costa Rica license. Mostly US facing casinos get a Costa Rica license to have a legal ground.
• Kahnawake was one of the first jurisdictions in the world to recognize the opportunities afforded by the interactive gaming industry. They are not as popular as they once was but the old folks of online gaming still know about this license.
• Panama adopted regulations governing the licensing of electronic games of chance and wagering activities in late 2002. It is not the safest gaming licenses out there but gives kind of a legal ground to its holders. Not the safest gaming license out there.
• Unlicensed crypto casino and betting sites are reality and we use a thinking emoji badge in order to mark them. As they do not have a license, please make sure that they offer Provably Fair casino games so that you can prove the fairness of every game you play. If their games are not Provably Fair as well, just avoid them.
