Why licensed only

What you gain by playing at a licensed operator

Protected prizes

Player funds kept separate from the operator's assets and a legal obligation to pay prizes, enforced by the SRIJ.

Certified games

Slots, roulette, blackjack and betting subject to independent technical certification and regulator audits.

Control tools

Deposit limits, self-exclusion and account history mandatory at every licensed operator.

Verified identity

Age (18+) and identity confirmed before any withdrawal, protecting minors and preventing fraud.

Clear taxes

The Special Online Gambling Tax is paid by the operator; prizes at licensed operators are not subject to personal income tax.

A regulator to turn to

In a dispute with a licensed operator you can complain to the SRIJ. At an illegal operator there is no recourse.

How to confirm a licence in two minutes

  1. Open the list of licensed entities at srij.turismodeportugal.pt.
  2. Find the brand or operating entity and confirm the licence numbers.
  3. Check that the operator's website ends in .pt and shows the licence in its footer.
  4. Set deposit limits when you register.

Play responsibly

Gambling is entertainment with a cost and a risk, never a source of income. Every operator on this list must provide:

  • Deposit limits — daily, weekly and monthly, set by the player. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately; raising it only after a cooling-off period.
  • Self-exclusion at the operator — temporary or permanent account suspension, blocking deposits and bets.
  • Self-exclusion at the SRIJ — a central register that blocks access to every licensed operator in Portugal.
  • Identity verification — mandatory before the first withdrawal and to confirm the minimum age of 18.
  • Account history — access to the record of deposits, bets, wins and losses to track real spending.

Responsible Gambling
