Guides
Verify and understand the licence
Education only — never a link to an operator promo.
- Is online casino legal in New York?No. New York does not license online casino games. The Gaming Commission lists online casinos — including sweepstakes-style — as unlawful; the Attorney General has enforced that line.Read
- Is online casino legal in the US?Only where a state licenses it. Federal law does not legalize online casinos nationwide, and a .com domain is never a licence. Seven states run licensed iGaming; Nevada allows online poker only.Read
- How online casinos workOne bet through the stack: account, wallet, game client, RNG or live stream, settlement. Mechanics from regulator rulebooks — no sites, no rankings, no sign-up steps.Read
- Licensed vs unlicensed online casinoA real US licence names a state regulator and an authorized-site list. A logo, a foreign seal, or a .com homepage is not the same thing.Read
