Burkina Faso Casinos Guide (on the picture: one of the Lydia Ludic slot halls in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso)

This is a guide to brick and mortar as well as online casinos in Burkina Faso (a Muslim West African country, with a population of 21.5 million, a former French colony by the name Republic of Upper Volta, one of the few Muslim-majority countries with legalized gambling, one of the poorest countries in the world). Find out which are the best land-based casinos and licensed online casino sites in Burkina Faso, or learn more about the legal status of casino gambling in the country.

Online casinos in Burkina Faso

Legal status of digital casinos in Burkina Faso: not regulated

 

Online casinos are not regulated in Burkina Faso.

Casino gambling in general is legal in Burkina Faso (you can read about it in the next section, above the casino list). However, all forms of online gambling are not yet regulated, which includes digital casinos. Consequently, there are no domestic Burkinabe licensed casino websites.

The law regulating casino gambling in Burkina Faso is the decree number 2008-3301. In accordance with this decree, all games involving money and based on luck (this includes all types of casino games) are subject to licencing by the Burkinabe Ministry of Finance. And even though online gambling is not specifically regulated, or mentioned by the decree, the way it is worded means that it applies to internet casinos as well.

/Comment: This likely means that online casinos are technically illegal in Burkina Faso, because online casino licenses are not issued. However, this is only a technicality, this is not actually enforced at all, and players can play freely online on foreign gambling websites, which is the only option for Burkinabe players, in leu of local alternatives./

The gambling legislation of Burkina Faso makes no mention of online casinos. This is not too surprising, considering that the internet penetration in the country is quite low: only about 18% (and even the few people, who do have access to the internet have very slow, low quality access, on cheap, old mobile devices, which are uncapable of running digital casino websites)

/Comment: This is actually true for most of Africa, not just Burkina Faso. The primary way Africans access the internet are budget mobile devices./

UPDATE 2022: The situation hasn’t changed regarding online casinos in Burkina Faso, they are still not regulated. Players can still play freely on foreign gambling websites, and because of the aforementioned extremely low internet penetration this is unlikely to change anytime soon.

By scrolling below you can find a list of online casinos, which accept Burkinabe players.

 

Can tourists play online while visiting Burkina Faso?

Yes, tourists, expats (or illegal migrants) can play online freely while enjoying their stay in the country.

 

Online casino licensing and regulatory body of Burkina Faso: N/A, online casino licenses are not issued in Burkina Faso.

Land-based casinos in Burkina Faso

Legal status of casinos in Burkina Faso: legal since 2008, operators require a licence, slot halls are also legal since 2014

 

Land-based casinos are legal in Burkina Faso, according to Loi n° 028-2008-AN du 13 mai 2008 portant Code du Travail., better known as the 2008 Gambling Act1.

/Comment: 60% of the population of Burkina Faso is Muslim, it’s very rare to see casinos in a Muslim-majority country. To put things into perspective: most Muslim-majority countries don’t even have a national lottery, let alone casinos, and quite a few of them punish people engaging in gambling (maisir) by fines, prison sentences (or by public flogging in Western Sahara or Somalia)./

This law states that all casino gambling establishments must obtain a gambling licence from the Ministry of Finance (details below, in the casino licensing section).

The law also makes mention of specific games, which are considered casino games (e.g.: table games and card games), which can only be found in licensed casinos.

Slot halls are also legal, according to decree number 2014-3472 (in force since 2014), and they can only contain gaming machines (slots and video poker).

UPDATE 2022: The country is in the process of a military coup. Therefore, the gambling establishments in the country are often forced to close down. This is really bad, because the coronavirus pandemic already has a bad effect on the sector. As a result the number of tourists has drastically declined, right now Burkina Faso is one of the least visited countries on the planet, with only 67,000 visitors per year3.

This has resulted in the closure of many gaming venues (e.g.: many Burkina Faso Lydia Ludic slot halls closed permanently). There are currently only around 20 slot halls and there aren’t any casinos in the country (Lucky Night Casino, Le Grand Calao, and Faso Loisirs are not actually casinos, despite the name or how they are advertised).

All of the casinos were located in the capital Ouagadougou, when the country still had any, and they were very small, neglected, ugly, even by African standards (you could instantly tell this is one of the poorest country on Earth by looking at the casinos). However, all of them closed due to the military coup, poverty of the local population and the global coronavirus pandemic.

The biggest slot hall chain is Lydia Ludic, which operates by far the most slot halls in the country.

/Comment: Although most of these venues barely have any machines, and they are low quality, barely functioning, 20+ year old machines, just really bad, you can see a Lydia Ludic slot parlour on the picture at the top of the page./

There used to be quite a lot of Lydia Ludic slot halls in the Burkina Faso.

In its heyday, before the military coup and coronavirus pandemic, the company operated around 30 venues, you can see a list of all Lydia Ludic slot halls in Burkina Faso on the map below, although most of these venues have closed by now (they didn’t update the list for years now, it’s from their official website):

You can find all the currently operating brick and mortar casinos in the list below.

 

Can locals visit the casinos in Burkina Faso?

Yes, both locals and tourists can visit the casinos in Burkina Faso, unlike in some other countries (e.g.: in the entire Muslim world casinos are only available to the tourists, locals can not enter).

 

Casino licensing and regulatory body of Burkina Faso: 

The Ministry of Economy and Finance (Ministère de l’Économie, des Finances et du Développement) is responsible for issuing casino and slot halls licences.

Their website is only available in French, and they will only respond to French communication, if you don’t speak French you need to hire a translator.

Private operators are only welcome in the casino sector, every other type of gambling is the monopoly of state-owned national lottery company, Loterie Nationale Burkinabé (LONAB).

Available licences for private companies:

  • casino licence
  • slot hall licence

 

Licensing requirements:

  • must be a company registered in Burkina Faso
  • must have necessary capital and provide proof of this to the Finance Ministry
  • owners, shareholders and key employees must not have prior criminal convictions (the law states “must be of good character”, which means no serious offences, a jail sentence is too much, but a fine for parking violation is probably okay)
  • must pay the license fee
  • must create a “development plan”, which details the effects the gambling establishments will have on the municipality and its infrastructure over the next 5 years, and it also must include a business plan with a focus on how many people will be employed, in what capacity and the wages they ill receive (they want casinos to employ as many people as possible, and pay them a good wages)

 

Licence fees:

  • casino licence fee – five million (5,000,000) CFA  (CFA = West African CFA franc, approximately € 7600, $ 8000)
  • slot hall licence fee 1,000,000 CFA (approximately € 1500, $ 1700)

 

Licenses are valid for 5 years.

You can learn more and apply online for a gambling licence here at: Service Public de l’Administration Burkinabè.

List of all casinos in Burkina Faso

This is a list of all casinos in Burkina Faso, with address, opening hours, number and types of games, dress code, entrance fee, reviews and a video of each gambling establishment, if one is available.

Technically, Burkina Faso does not have any real casinos.

Faso Loisirs below is not an actual casino, because it does not have live dealer tables or card games, just gaming machines and an electronic table.

It has a slot hall licence, not the more expensive casino licence.

However, because Burkina Faso does not have a casino I have included Faso Loisirs to give people an idea of what to expect from the country’s bigger slot halls (which are the local casino substitutes).

This is not representative of the smaller slot halls in the countryside, which are just 5-10 20+ year old machines, which barely function, usually in ugly dilapidated buildings (I recommend avoiding those).

 

1., Faso Loisirs
This is a picture of the front entrance and facade of Faso Loisirs casino, located in Avenue Kwame Nkrumah, Koulouba, in the capital of Burkina Faso Ouagadougou. This is the first casino on this list of all Burkinabe casinos. You can find the other gaming venues on this list below this one. You can read more about this gaming venue to the right of the picture: its' address, opening hours, dress code, entrance fee, and you can watch a video of the venue as well.

Faso Loisirs

Faso Loisirs, address: Avenue Kwame Nkrumah, Koulouba, Ouagadougou

Faso Loisirs is the biggest “casino” in Burkina Faso right now (it is still very small by international standards, technically a slot hall, not a casino, but most websites claim it’s a casino). It is located in the capital Ouagadogou.

The casinos has very outdated machines, and the whole place looks neglected, ugly (this is true for all Burkinabe gambling establishments, in fact, compared to the others this is above average, one of the best, still pretty bad though).

Sadly the casino has no official website, therefore very little information is known about it for certain. They only have a French Facebook page that hasn’t been updated in 2 years (at the time of writing), you can find it here.

 

Games: around 50 gaming machines (slots, video poker), and no live dealer tables, but it has some electronic roulette machines

Video of Faso Loisirs:

There are no videos of this casino online.

However, if you are thinking about visiting the country, watch the video below to get an idea of what to expect:

 

Opening hours: 12:00 and 4:00, daily (electronic tables only open after 21:00)

UPDATE COVID-19: open

Dress code: unknown, probably smart casual, considering that it is the biggest casino in the country, if you know please leave comment

Entrance fee: no entrance fee

Meta review analysis: The casino gets good reviews, 4/5, no major problems, apparently people like it, must be because by local standards this is considered a good gambling venue, one of the best

 

18+, ID, and passport for tourists, is needed to enter.

 

Lucky Night Casino and Le Grand Calao have zero information about them online sadly (at the time of writing). It’s unknown if they are still in operation. If you know anything about them please leave a comment. Thank you.

/Comment: Despite what some other casino directory and listings websites claim Lucky Night Casino and Le Grand Calao are not casinos, despite the name, they are small slot halls./

 

Other forms of online gambling in Burkina Faso

The largest gambling operator in Burkina Faso is the state-owned LONAB (Loterie Nationale Burkinabé), which controls both the national lottery and pari-mutuel sports betting. Similarly to other francophone countries, Burkinabe can also wager on horse races held in France through the country’s connection to PMU, the French horse racing betting operator.

All forms of online gambling are not yet regulated in Burkian Faso, even LONAB does not operate any digital platforms.

You can read more about the legal status of gambling in Burkina Faso here.

 

Bitcoin casinos in Burkina Faso

Legal status: illegal

 

Cryptocurrencies are de facto illegal in Burkina Faso*.

In 2018 the BCEAO (The Central Bank of West African States**) made an announcement stating that they are against Bitcoin and other virtual currencies, and they are “not admitted” in the BCEAO zone.

/**BCEAO explanation: The Central Bank of West African States (French: Banque Centrale des États de l’Afrique de l’Ouest) is a central bank serving the eight west African countries which share the common West African CFA franc currency and comprise the West African Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA). These countries are:

 

Consequently, bitcoin gambling is also de facto illegal.

/Comment: Technically it’s not regulated, it is not mentioned anywhere in the gambling legislation, but it would impossible to legalize it seeing that the BCEAO is against it./

Bitcoin, litecoin, ethereum, ripple and other crypto coins are almost entirely unknown in Burkina Faso, because of poverty and the very low internet penetration (18%, and most people, who do have access to the internet, have very low quality, slow access, on cheap mobile devices, certainly not good enough to mine crypto coins).

There are no bitcoin exchanges or crypto ATMS in Burkina Faso (or at least there is no information about them online at the time of writing).

If you want to place bets with alternative digital currencies from Burkina Faso you can only do it on foreign bitcoin casino sites. Players who place bets with bitcoins are not prosecuted, despite it being illegal, there is no enforcement.

The bitcoin casinos below accept players from Burkina Faso.

Thank you for visiting:
This is a selfie of the author and owner of Simon's Casino Gambling Blog, me, Simon András Péter, a.k.a. by the internet pseudonym SimonTheSorcerer, owner of Simon's Online Marketing Kft. This is the homepage of my online casino gambling blog, you can see what's on the website, the links to all the different sections of the website.

That's me, Simon, thank you for visiting.

Don't worry, this is not an ad! ;) Just wanted to make sure to tell you that I'm glad you visited this gambling blog. I'm Simon, the only author and the man behind this blog (if you are interested, my unusual life story can be found on the homepage, under the "About me" dropdown section).
I'm an independent gambling blogger since 2012. In this sector dominated by huge media companies, casino operators and online marketing networks, who can easily spend $ millions on their online gambling blogs, it's not easy for an independent nobody like me to survive. It took me about 6 years, working my ass off, to even have a chance to be noticed by visitors like you. I'm lucky enough that for a few years now, I make enough money to be able to do this full time (before that, I had part-time jobs, ghost writing gigs, online marketing this and that).
Now I can finally do this full time, thanks to visitors like you! And it means a lot! If you are interested, please bookmark this site (no social media profiles, I no longer have any, but please feel free to share anything on any social media networks, if you still use them). I don't have any money to advertise, and if you have a personal blog, any social media profile, please mention my gambling blog and link back to it. This the only way for a small website like this to grow. Thank you!

Charity: As a way to help others, to give back, I sometimes donate to Kiva. If you click on the ads on the website, I make some money. And in a good month, if I make more than my expenses, I donate to people and projects on Kiva.
Kiva helps young entrepreneurs in developing countries, which is an issue close to my heart for obvious reasons. If you have the means, please sign up with the revolutionary non-profit company Kiva.org and help people lift themselves out of poverty, through hard-work, and an initial investment (non-profit loan). These non-profit loans encourage entrepreneurship and hard work instead of creating a dependent class that is afraid to get a job, or start a business (because if they did, they would no longer get support and free money, disincentivizing hard work and entrepreneurship). This is the right way to fight poverty in developing countries (or anywhere else really), and if this is something you are interested in, and if you would like to know more, or to help out, please check out Kiva.org here. Thank you!
