What a Remote Gaming Licence Means
Drawsi operates under a remote gaming licence, the permission an online operator needs to offer casino games and sports betting over the internet. To hold one, the operating company has to show a regulator that it can verify customers’ age and identity, run fair games, keep proper financial records, handle complaints and offer safer gambling tools. If it falls short, the regulator can fine it, attach conditions or withdraw the licence.
For you, the licence is the reason there is someone to answer to when something goes wrong. It shapes how disputes are escalated, how your documents are stored and how the cashier must treat your requests. We cover the service side in our full casino review.
What we deliberately do not do
We never print a licence number on this site, and we do not name a regulator as a fact of this brand’s licensing. Numbers get copied between sites, go out of date and are easy to fake on a badge. The only source that matters is the regulator’s own register.
- Licence status can change, so check it when you sign up.
- The company on the register should match the one in the terms.
How to Verify Any Casino Licence Yourself
Checking a licence takes a couple of minutes and works for any online casino. You do not need to trust our word, the operator’s word or a logo in a footer.
- Open the footer. Find the licence statement or seal at the bottom of the homepage.
- Click the seal. A genuine seal links to the regulator’s own website, not a page hosted by the casino. Check the address bar.
- Read the licensee name and its status. It should say active or current, not suspended or revoked.
- Search the register directly. Open the regulator’s website in a fresh tab and search for the company or domain.
- Compare with the terms. The register and the casino’s terms and conditions should name the same company.
If the seal is just an image with no link, the domain is missing from the register, or the company names do not match, treat it as a warning and stop there.
A licence attaches to named websites, so a lookalike address can borrow a real seal without being covered. The comparison page applies the same checks to three anonymised rivals.
Check the Licence Covers Where You Live
A valid licence is the first question; the second is whether it lets the operator serve players in your country. Many countries run their own licensing systems and only permit locally licensed sites, while others accept operators licensed elsewhere. The rules change, so check them for yourself rather than relying on any casino’s word, ours included.
A quick routine
- Search for your country’s official gambling authority by typing its address yourself.
- See whether it keeps a list of permitted or blocked operators.
- Read the casino’s terms for its list of restricted countries.
- If you are on a restricted list, do not play, and do not use a VPN to get round it. Accounts opened that way can be closed and winnings withheld.

18+ · T&CsGame Fairness: RNG and RTP Testing
Every slot spin, card deal and digital roulette result comes from a random number generator, or RNG. An independent testing laboratory checks it before games go live and tests the return-to-player figures that studios publish.
What RTP really tells you
RTP is the share of all money staked on a game that is paid back over a very long run. A 96% slot returns €96 for every €100 wagered across millions of spins, not across your session. Short-term results swing widely, so RTP is a guide, not a promise.
- Where to find it: the info or paytable panel inside any game.
- Why it varies: some studios release a title at more than one RTP setting, so check the panel.
- Live tables: results come from real cards, wheels and dealers streamed from a studio.
The lobby carries 6,000+ games from 90+ studios, including Pragmatic Play, Evolution, Play’n GO, Hacksaw Gaming and Nolimit City, whose titles are certified across many markets. Our review scores the library at 9.3. To check an RTP panel yourself, open the lobby.
Encryption, Card Security and Two-Factor Login
Your password, address and payment details travel between your device and the casino’s servers, so the connection must be locked. The site uses 256-bit TLS encryption on every page. Check for the padlock in the address bar before typing anything.
Card and crypto payments
Visa and Mastercard payments run through PCI-DSS compliant processors, the card industry’s security standard for storing and transmitting card data. Crypto deposits credit after network confirmation; always copy the wallet address from the cashier rather than typing it.
Two-factor authentication
2FA is optional, and we recommend it. Signing in then needs your password plus a six-digit code from an authenticator app, so a stolen password alone is not enough.
- Turn 2FA on in your account’s security settings.
- Store backup codes offline.
- Use a password you use nowhere else.
The account also locks for 15 minutes after five wrong password attempts. The full routine is in our login guide, and lockout fixes are on the troubleshooting page.
Identity Checks and Why They Happen
Know-your-customer checks, or KYC, exist to stop underage gambling, fraud and money laundering, and to make sure winnings reach the right person.
| Document | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Photo ID | Passport, driving licence or national ID card, all four corners visible |
| Proof of address | Utility bill or bank statement dated within the last 3 months |
| Payment proof | Only when asked, showing the card, wallet or crypto account is yours |
Most documents are reviewed within 24 hours. Clear, uncropped photos in good light are fastest; blurred images and screenshots of screenshots are the usual reason for a rejection. Larger withdrawals or a move up the VIP ladder can trigger extra source-of-funds questions, which are routine.
Upload documents when you register rather than at your first withdrawal. It is the simplest way to keep a payout out of pending.
If an upload is stuck, the troubleshooting guide has fixes, and the about page explains how we test these flows.
Safer Gambling Tools and Where to Get Help
A licence also obliges the operator to give you tools to control your play. They sit in the responsible gambling section of your account, and most take effect immediately.
- Deposit limits: daily, weekly or monthly caps.
- Loss limits: a ceiling on net losses over a chosen period.
- Session reminders and reality checks: prompts showing time played and money spent.
- Time-outs: a break of 24 hours to 6 weeks.
- Self-exclusion: a block of 6 months or longer.
Lowering a limit is instant. Raising one usually comes with a cooling-off period, so a decision made mid-session cannot undo a sensible plan.
