What you play on
Star Bet is not bound by the Belgian restrictions and therefore shows more: a broad slot selection, live tables and crypto payments. What you give up: the Belgian regulator, EPIS and the €200 limit.
The Belgian format revolves around dice games: mega Wheels, Mystery Box, Gold Mine, no other country knows this category in this shape.
Licence status
Star Bet holds no licence from the Gaming Commission. Starbet sits on the list of blocked addresses, which passes 900.
No Belgian licence means no EPIS link and no statutory weekly limit. In a disagreement the Belgian regulator sits outside the loop.
What the law imposes
On player protection, Belgium sits considerably more strictly than a few years ago and you notice it at signup. The standard limit runs to €200 per week per site.
The Gaming Commission keeps one central exclusion register in EPIS: one registration excludes you at once from every licensed operator, online and on-site. The entry point is the Gaming Commission. For casino, gaming hall and betting the bar has been 21 since September 2024; 18 still applies at the National Lottery alone. Age is verified at registration.

The payment story in Belgium is quickly told: bancontact and Bancontact Pay cover nearly every deposit, and what comes out lands on your account. The rename from Payconiq to Bancontact Pay dates from March 2026.
Bancontact Pay limits to €1500 per operation and €2500 per 24 hours. The stake lands without delay; on your account it usually appears after one to three banking days, with the operator's own turnaround on top.
Opening and verifying an account
Registration looks similar at every operator: your details and a verification that precedes the payout. Keep an identity card and proof of residence ready. Paying from someone else's account always creates problems.
Support here usually runs in English, and a complaint cannot reach the Gaming Commission. Archive what you receive about deposits and withdrawals; in a conflict those are the only pieces of evidence with weight.

Lowering the weekly limit worked right away, which I appreciated.
FAQ
- Is there tax on winnings?
No — gambling winnings fall outside personal income tax. The operator remits the levy, not the player. This applies to every licensed operator.
- What should I watch in the bonus?
Always work the wagering through: 35x on a €50 bonus means €1,750 of turnover before a payout. The validity window is often shorter than you expect. Watch the maximum stake while clearing, too.
- What is the minimum age?
21 — that has been the rule since the 2024 reform, National Lottery aside. The check is automatic at licensed sites. Without valid ID you do not get through.
- What is EPIS?
You register with EPIS. It works nationally and immediately. It is the strongest brake Belgium offers. Unlicensed sites are not connected to it.
- May Star Bet operate in Belgium?
Not legal in the Belgian sense: Star Bet operates without a Gaming Commission licence. Always verify it yourself before depositing. It takes two clicks to verify.
- Which payment method is best?
Depositing with Bancontact works; the money comes back through your bank account. There is no route back to Bancontact — that goes via the bank. Turnaround depends mostly on the operator, not on Bancontact.
