About this editorial team
Jonas Vandenberghe has followed the Belgian gambling market since 2020 and tries everything first-hand paying particular attention to payouts and KYC. Works from Gent.
How we test. we register like any other player, make a deposit with the Bancontact app, file a withdrawal request and measure it through to the account. Licence status is verified directly with the Gaming Commission and check what the terms actually say. Anything that could not be checked is cut at the final edit.
We are paid through affiliate links; the text above does not depend on it. Even with a well-paying partner the verdict holds.

What the law imposes
The Belgian legislator approaches player protection notably strictly by European standards which feeds straight into your play limit. Every licence holder opens your account at €200 per week.
The EPIS system is the regulator's central exclusion list: after registration no licensed operator grants you access. The entry point is the Gaming Commission. Since 1 September 2024 the minimum age is 21 for casino, gaming hall and betting; 18 still applies at the National Lottery alone. Age is verified at registration.
