MGA

MGA (Malta Gaming Authority): The MGA is the most important EU regulator. It bridges the gap between player protection and freedom of gaming.

For example, in an MGA-licensed casino you'll often find live casino games (roulette, blackjack) and jackpots, which are usually missing in purely German slots casinos. Here you can often bet significantly more than €1 per round.

KYC

KYC (Know Your Customer): This process serves to verify identity and prevent money laundering.

Example: You've won €500 and click on "Withdraw". The casino will then ask you to upload a photo of your ID card and a photo of a recent mobile phone bill (as proof of address). The money will only be released once these documents have been verified.

GGL

GGL (Joint Gambling Authority of the Federal States): This is the highest German authority for online gambling, based in Halle. A casino with this license is 100% legal for players residing in Germany.

For example, if you play at a GGL-licensed casino, you'll notice that there's always a 5-second pause between spins on a slot machine, and you can bet a maximum of €1 per spin. You're also automatically registered in the OASIS system, which guarantees the highest level of player protection.
