i wanted to know exactly and asked betway: are Online Casinos in germany legal for german players?

the answer came promptly:

Thank you for your message to Betway customer service.

I would like to confirm again that gambling is legal in Germany.


The Government of Malta has granted us a license to operate an online casino under the provisions of the Gambling Ordinance and we operate our casino under the strict guidelines of this rarely granted license. This Malta license is highly sought after, as both the company and its directors are subject to strict due diligence that guarantees you the safest possible gaming environment. For more information on Malta, please visit http://www.lga.org.mt/lga/home.aspx.

Well, they do circumnavigate the answer

Nowhere is it mentioned that Online Casinos are legal in Germany. Only that gambling is legal in Germany.

Which gambling ordinance are they referring to?

That a Provider confirms the legality is but somehow clear or ?

I don't really see through it either. On the one hand, you see more than enough advertising for Online Casinos, whether on TV, online or elsewhere. You can go to the Tipico store in town and place online bets. Quite legal or not?

On the other hand, we hear here every day that bank accounts are closed and canceled because of gambling. Since someone should look through

But you did not get an answer to your question. Since you but the negative answer is already known or should be, I would probably answer in their place also so larifari around the bush and hope that you make another Deposit and in the future such questions be let. Gladly I would also give you 100 FS for 10ct in BoD, so that you do not get the idea to even think about something again

But you could get a very quick overview, but you would have to read for this in a forum,
where chargeback or legal/illegal is on the agenda!

Many here know the forum, and so that just not the suspicion arises that I advertise here for the said forum...I was once, but am no longer active there because of the Chargebackgeeier.

However, you are there - and I claim now times - very well enlightened regarding the legal situation.


Oh yes...they should show you the license for Germany - blah blah and the earth is a disc.

What a moronic answer. The Dutch coffeeshops certainly have a license. Is weed therefore allowed in Germany? The answer is an absolute cheek.

But sports betting takes a special position. Therefore, these and online casinos are to be seen separately from each other.

This has been discussed a thousand times here in the forum. It is a gray area. The ECJ ruled in 2016 that Germany cannot punish providers from the EU due to freedom of services

Basically, the state of Germany is just being stupid. It has a gambling monopoly which does not comply with European law. According to European law it is legal, according to German illegal, we are, as already mentioned a thousand times, in a gray area. Anyone who plays on the Internet will certainly not be prosecuted or prosecuted
