Pros and cons of Arlequin Casino
✅ Pros
- More generous bonuses than Belgian law allows
- Bigger game catalogue than Belgian licence holders
- Often more payment options, e-wallets included
❌ Cons
- Disputes fall outside Belgian oversight
- No statutory €200-per-week deposit limit
- Bancontact not always available
The game catalogue
Arlequin Casino operates outside the Belgian licensing system and therefore shows a wider catalogue than a B+ hall may: slots from dozens of studios plus live tables. Against that, oversight, EPIS and the weekly ceiling fall away.
Dice games replace the classic slot here: Dice Spinner, 777 Win Spinner, Mega Spinner, no other country knows this category in this shape.

The legal side
Arlequin Casino is not registered with the Belgian regulator. Arlequincasino belongs to the 900-odd addresses on the black list.
No Belgian licence means no EPIS link and no statutory weekly limit. A self-set limit is your only brake here.
From signup to first payout
Signing up looks roughly the same on every site: identity details that match, and a check on them. Have your identity card and a recent address document ready.
The desk answers in English, and no Belgian body arbitrates a dispute. Set the transaction e-mails aside; in a disagreement it comes down exclusively to those.

The dice games are simply more fun than the standard slots.
Limits, age and EPIS
The rules on player protection here run considerably more strictly than a few years ago and it is built that way on purpose. Every licence holder opens your account at €200 per week. Downwards it goes without an intermediate step, upwards, a review and a delay apply.
Through EPIS the Gaming Commission runs centralised exclusion: after registration no licensed operator grants you access. The request goes through the regulator itself. The age bar moved on 1 September 2024 from 18 to 21 for casino, hall and betting; the National Lottery is the exception at 18. The bar is statutory, not a house rule.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Bancontact and Bancontact Pay are the standard deposit methods; withdrawals go by bank transfer. A different name on the account blocks the payout. The deposit shows on your account immediately.
From 21. The bar rose in September 2024, only the lottery stayed at 18. Trial accounts fall under the same limit. Without valid ID you do not get through.
A bonus is only worth something once you convert the wagering into euros. The validity window is often shorter than you expect. Without converting to euros a percentage says nothing.
No. In Belgium gambling winnings are untaxed for the player — the levy sits with the operator. This applies to every licensed operator. The operator remits the levy, not the player.
