Crypto casinos operate under offshore licences rather than a single global regulator — most commonly the Curaçao Gaming Authority (CGA), or an Anjouan licence from the Government of Anjouan, Union of Comoros. This guide compares the five licence-verified operators on this site and explains what each licence type actually means for you, wherever you are. A crypto-casino licence is not the same as a gambling permit in your own country — always confirm your local laws separately.
About: Worldwide
Crypto casinos operate under offshore licences — most commonly the Curaçao Gaming Authority (since the 24/12/2024 LOK reform, a direct OGL licence rather than the old master/sub-licence model) or an Anjouan (Government of Anjouan, Union of Comoros) licence. Availability and legality still depend on your own local laws, which vary by country and can change; a crypto-casino licence is not the same as a local gambling permit in every jurisdiction. We list only operators whose current licence number we have checked directly against the operator's own published record.

The licence types behind the five operators on this site
Four of the five operators compared here — Cloudbet, BitStarz, mBit Casino, and TrustDice — hold a direct Curaçao Gaming Authority (CGA) licence in the current OGL/YYYY/xxx/xxxx format, issued under the National Ordinance on Games of Chance that came into force 24/12/2024. The fifth, FortuneJack, holds a licence from the Government of Anjouan, Union of Comoros instead. Neither jurisdiction is 'better' in an absolute sense — they are simply different regulators with different frameworks, and we disclose which applies to each casino rather than treating 'offshore-licensed' as one undifferentiated category.
We checked each licence number directly against the operator's own published record: Cloudbet and mBit Casino each publish a dedicated licence page, which we verified directly; BitStarz, TrustDice, and FortuneJack publish their licence details in their terms or footer, which we corroborated against the operator's own site rather than a third-party listing.
Comparing the five operators on payment methods
All five operators accept cryptocurrency deposits; the specific coin list varies. Cloudbet accepts BTC, ETH, USDT, BCH, DOGE and others. TrustDice publishes support for 20+ digital currencies. BitStarz, mBit Casino, and FortuneJack accept Bitcoin and other major coins per their own sites, though we have not yet catalogued each operator's full supported-coin list in detail — check the current deposit page on each operator's own site before assuming a specific coin is supported.
None of the five operators' minimum deposit or withdrawal-speed figures have been hands-on verified by us as of this review — these details change and the operator's own current terms are always the binding source.
Why licence jurisdiction matters more than it looks
A Curaçao Gaming Authority licence and an Anjouan licence are both real, checkable authorisations — but they are not interchangeable with each other, and neither is interchangeable with a licence in your own country. Curaçao's post-reform regime (in force since 24/12/2024) requires direct CGA licensing and, from 01/01/2026, physical presence in Curaçao; Anjouan's framework is separately administered by the Government of Anjouan, Union of Comoros. See our companion guide on verifying a Curaçao or Anjouan licence for the full method.
Wherever you are, a crypto casino's offshore licence does not automatically make real-money play legal where you live. Confirm your own country's or state's position separately before depositing — this site covers licence verification, not local legality in every jurisdiction worldwide.
Responsible gambling, worldwide
Gambling involves real financial risk, and cryptocurrency values are additionally volatile on top of that — a deposit's real-world value can move independently of anything that happens at the casino. Set a fixed budget in fiat terms you can afford to lose, not just a coin amount, before depositing.
If gambling is affecting you, free and confidential help is available worldwide via begambleaware.org (UK/international) or your national problem-gambling helpline. None of the five operators on this site has been hands-on tested by us for the specific self-exclusion or deposit-limit tools it offers — check the operator's own responsible-gambling page directly.
Frequently asked questions
Do all crypto casinos hold the same type of licence?
No. Four of the five operators compared on this site (Cloudbet, BitStarz, mBit Casino, TrustDice) hold a direct Curaçao Gaming Authority licence; the fifth (FortuneJack) holds a licence from the Government of Anjouan, Union of Comoros instead. Both are real, checkable licensing jurisdictions, but they are administered separately and are not interchangeable.
Is a Curaçao or Anjouan licence the same as a licence in my own country?
No. An offshore crypto-casino licence authorises the operator, not your own participation under your local law. Confirm your own country's or state's position on real-money crypto gambling separately before depositing — availability and legality vary widely and can change.
Which of these five operators has the widest cryptocurrency support?
Cloudbet publishes support for BTC, ETH, USDT, BCH, DOGE and others; TrustDice publishes support for 20+ digital currencies. We have not yet completed a detailed, hands-on comparison of every supported coin across all five operators — check each operator's current deposit page directly.
