What Always Vegas offers
Always Vegas does not know the Belgian limitation on the offering: a catalogue of slots, live casino and crash games. Without a licence, EPIS and the statutory deposit limit go too.
Dice games are the Belgian hallmark: mega Wheels, Infinity Dice, Gold Mine, the suppliers behind it — Air Dice, Gaming1 — work mainly for Belgium.
Licence and oversight
Always Vegas does not appear in the Belgian licence register. The regulator blocked alwaysvegas; the list now counts 900+ domains.
Neither EPIS nor the statutory weekly limit applies here. A self-set limit is your only brake here. For a dispute there is no Belgian point of contact.
From signup to first payout
Opening an account varies little: identity details that match, and a check on them. An ID and something that evidences your address usually suffice. Depositing under a name other than the account holder's causes delay.
There is no Dutch or French guarantee, and no Belgian escalation path. Leave the transaction mails in your inbox; in a dispute over a payout those are the only documents that count.

Limits, age and EPIS
On player protection, Belgium sits above the European average in strictness with concrete consequences for your account. Each site automatically applies a €200 weekly ceiling. Adjusting downwards works right away, raising runs through a verification and then a waiting window.
Through EPIS the Gaming Commission runs centralised exclusion: the block covers every licence holder in the country. The register is not public. The bar has stood at 21 since 1 September 2024, lottery aside; for the National Lottery 18 remained the rule. Without valid ID you do not get through.
Player questions
- Which payment method is best?
Yes. Bancontact and Bancontact Pay are the standard deposit methods; withdrawals go by bank transfer. Always pay from an account in your own name. There is no route back to Bancontact — that goes via the bank.
- What is EPIS?
Through the Gaming Commission's EPIS system. One registration excludes you from every licensed operator, online and on-site. Relatives can, in certain cases, file a request. It is the strongest brake Belgium offers.
- From what age may I play?
The minimum age is 21; since 1 September 2024 it is 21 for casino, hall and betting. This is verified at registration. The rule applies online and on-site alike.
- How much may I deposit per week?
€200 per week per site applies automatically; you need not request it. The limit applies per site, not across all sites. Raising it always takes time, even when the request goes through.
- How does wagering work?
Check which games count: slots often 100%, table games sometimes 10% or nothing at all. Check whether your game counts before you start. The validity window is often shorter than you expect.
- Is there tax on winnings?
No, you pay no tax on winnings; that burden falls on the operator. Ask for advice if large amounts are involved. At a foreign operator your tax position may differ.
