CH · Online casino linked to a land concession
Switzerland
Since 2019, a concessioned Swiss land casino may seek an extension to operate online casino games. ESBK publishes the authorised online platforms and land-based casinos in two complementary official lists.

What the framework covers
What the framework covers
This model means a legal online platform is linked to a Swiss concession holder. Large-scale lotteries and betting fall under separate oversight, including the intercantonal authority Gespa, so a casino list does not cover every gambling form.
How to check an offer
How to check an offer
Start from the ESBK online-platform page, follow the listed domain and match the operator to its associated casino. For a physical visit, use the separate land-casino list and confirm the address.
What not to infer
What not to infer
ESBK also takes measures against unauthorised supply. A foreign website in French, German or Italian is not made legal by its language or an offshore licence.
