What the framework covers

What the framework covers

Land-based gambling follows separate frameworks for authorised casinos, gaming clubs, lotteries and retail networks. For an online service, check the licensed entity, every declared domain and the exact product category. A familiar brand may operate several websites through different legal entities.

How to check an offer

How to check an offer

Start from the ANJ list and search for the website’s exact address rather than trusting a logo or advert. Match the domain, legal entity and permitted activities. Record the date because approvals and declared domains can change.

What not to infer

What not to infer

A licence issued abroad does not permit an online casino to target people located in France. If the domain cannot be found in the official source, do not register, deposit or send identity documents while the position remains unclear.
