Frequently asked questions

Is online gambling legal in Ireland?

Ireland has no domestic online casino regulator yet — the Gambling Regulation Bill 2022 is still being implemented. Most Irish players use Curaçao or MGA-licensed operators which accept IE-residents legally from their side. MGA brands offer the strongest institutional protection through MGA Player Support Unit dispute mediation.

What payment methods work for Irish players?

EUR wallet is standard. Trustly via open banking gives the fastest bank channel (under 1 hour withdrawals). Visa/Mastercard work but issuers may block gambling MCC 7995. Skrill and Neteller are widely accepted. PayPal is rare on offshore brands but standard on MGA operators serving Ireland.

What is wagering and how does it work?

Wagering is the multiplier you must bet through bonus funds before they become withdrawable. A 100 EUR bonus at 40× wagering means 4,000 EUR in total bets. Slots usually count 100%, table games 10-20%. MGA operators usually offer lower wagering (30-35×); Curaçao tier tends higher (40-50×).

Can I trust crypto casinos as an Irish player?

Crypto casinos with Curaçao or Anjouan licences can be solid — many run on SoftSwiss or BetConstruct stack with provably-fair RNG. The trade-off is no MGA-tier dispute mediation. We score crypto-only brands with a soft trust ceiling around 8.0 and recommend them only when crypto matches the player's profile.

How do you make money if you do not run a casino?

Affiliate commissions — when a reader signs up at a casino through our tracking link and deposits, the operator pays us a cut. Industry standard and disclosed on every page. The commission is shown in our data file and does not influence editorial scoring. Casinos paying higher CPA do not get higher scores.
