Denmark gambling websites guide
Summary: Gambling is legal and strictly regulated in Denmark (officially the Kingdom of Denmark, a wealthy Northern European country of 5.8 million people, a member of the EU).
The main piece of legislation regulating games of chance in Denmark is the 2012 Gambling Act1 passed in 2010, and it is in effect since 2012 (and it has been amended numerous times). In accordance with the gambling law, operators require to obtain a licence. The 2012 Gambling Act legalized online gambling as well. The Gambling Act specifically regulates betting, casinos, gaming machines and lotteries (and their digital versions), and these are the main focus of the gambling law. Betting is mostly sports betting and the lottery section includes all lottery type games (instant bingo, raffles, tombola, keno). Casinos and gaming machines are self-explanatory. Lottery products are by far the biggest segment of the market, which is understandable considering that Denmark has very few casino hotels. The online gambling sector is at the second place, which really took off since 2012 (in terms of tax revenue, but this was mostly spearheaded by state owned Danske Spil though). The 2012 Gambling Act regulates not only land-based but online gambling as well. Only licensed online gambling operators may provide gambling services in Denmark, and several unauthorised sites have been blacklisted. Because Denmark is an EU country Article 56 TFEU2 (EU gambling directives) apply. Only licensed operators can accept players from Denmark. You can find a list of online gambling websites, which accept players from the Kingdom of Denmark by scrolling below, or click here to jump to the list: |
Those operating illegal gambling sites or establishments within Denmark may be fined and imprisoned. Players who place bets on illegal, unlicensed websites by mistake are not fined or imprisoned only the operators are targeted.
Unlicensed online gambling websites might be blocked, and financial transactions to unlicensed gambling companies might be blocked as well.
The legal status of unlicensed foreign online gambling sites is more complex due to EU laws. The Gambling Act mentions that (anyone who) “makes a living by gambling activities for which a licence has not been granted” (may be fined). Though the definition is unclear, this does not seem to apply to casual gambling (targets advantage gambling and professional gamblers, poker players), and there have been no reports of players prosecuted for online gambling.
and as a result, despite the ISP bans many offshore online casinos still accept players from Denmark.

Betting on blood sports in Denmark
All forms of blood sports are considered animal cruelty, and are illegal in Denmark. Betting on blood sports is also illegal.
Even though Denmark is an expensive, cold, Northern country, some tourists (mostly from nearby DACH countries) still regularly visit the country. Because they have very few and small casinos (all nearby countries have bigger and better casino hotels), it’s probably not the Danish casinos, which are brining in the visitors.
Check out the following video to get a glimpse of what tourists attractions can the country offer:
/Comment: Central and Eastern Europe has much better weather, and they are significantly better value for money. I certainly don’t recommend this overpriced welfare state over any of the Central and Eastern European destinations. You can get the European experience for less than half the price in those countries, and even their casino are better, if that’s what you are after./
Can tourists play online while visiting Denmark
Yes, tourists, expats (or illegal migrants) can play online freely while enjoying their stay in the country.
Gambling licensing in Denmark
The so called “Spillemyndigheden”, Danish Gambling Authority is tasked with enforcing, overseeing and licensing gambling establishments, land-based or online, within the country and its two territories (the Faroe Islands, Greenland). Their website is available in English as well.
You can check here whether your business requires a gambling licence.
The gambling licenses issued by the Danish Gambling Authority cover both territories as well.
Lotteries, lottery type games, keno and bingo are not part of this licensing system. Danske Spil, the national lottery of Denmark has a monopoly on lotteries, instant games, bingo, keno, horse racing, and they handle the licensing of these activities.
The Danish Gambling Authority has issued over 50 licences so far to both local and international gambling companies3.

Gambling tax in Denmark
The gambling tax in Denmark is an astronomically high 45% for casinos, 20% for betting activities, 41% for slots outside casinos and 28% for online gambling sites (from 2021 onward). And unlike most countries where the tax is the percentage of the winnings of the casino, the gambling operators in Denmark are taxed after total revenue, a significantly less fair system.
The gambling tax is paid on top of the usual taxes (e.g.: corporate tax, which is 22%).
Even non-profit gambling is taxed at 17.5%, which is really unusual, one of the few countries, where charity gambling is taxed.
For players, taxation of gambling winnings in Denmark:
Gambling winnings are taxed as income (income tax applies). It is subject to the extremely high personal income tax (up to 62%, depending on the amount you have won, and the total amount of income from all sources in that tax year).
/Comment: Reportedly this is not enforced in case of small winnings, $5000 or less. But if you win a larger amount, make sure to contact an accountant, who will help you with your taxes./

Casino gambling in Denmark
Casinos in Denmark: legal since 1902, operators require a licence
Online casino gambling in Denmark: legal since 2012, operators require a licence
Casino gambling is legal in Denmark (since 1902, with the opening of Casino Marienlyst) and requires a licence issued by the Danish Gambling Authority. Despite the fact that casino gambling is legal, the number of land based casino licenses is very low, per capita Denmark has one of the fewest casinos in Europe, and the few they do have are not particularly large.
The 2012 Gambling Act defines the difference between land-based casinos and gaming machine arcades (a.k.a. slot halls); the latter may host only a few gaming machines while the former is allowed to offer unlimited, and tables games: roulette, dice games and card games: baccarat, punto banco, blackjack and poker (and video poker machines) as well. The licensing requirements, fees are stricter, and the gambling tax is higher for casinos (gambling tax for casinos is 45% for slot halls 41% both extremely high, one of the highest in all of Europe).
Gambling laws also apply to sea and air vessels in Danish territory. There is, in fact, a few ferries between Denmark and Norway where passengers can play, the Compass Casino group manages these small slot halls (usually not real casinos just slot halls, e.g.: DFDS Pearl Seaway ferry).
Apart from these there are currently only 6 proper brick and mortar casinos in Denmark and at least a hundred smaller slot halls (the overwhelming majority of venues with slots don’t have any sort of online presence)
Operating online casino sites in Denmark also requires a gambling licence. Games allowed in online casinos are the same as in land-based ones. Unauthorised, unlicensed online casino operators may be blocked and fined for offering their services in Denmark. Players participating in casual gambling on foreign online casino sites don’t seem to be breaking the law and are not prosecuted. However, the way the law is worded (see above) means that full time professional players might be prosecuted.
UPDATE 2021 COVID-19: The coronavirus pandemic has a really bad effect on the Danish gambling sector. You can see it on the detailed breakdown (per sector) below.

Denmark casino sector revenue and comparison 2021, post-COVID-19
Traditional, land-based casinos have been getting the short end of the stick in Denmark, for years now. Even prior to the global pandemic they were in a decline. However, 2021’s 39.6% decline is unprecedented. It’s surprising that this hasn’t resulted in many closures.
At this point the market share of casino gambling (of the total gambling market) is an insignificant 2%! (Context: It was 3% in 2020, and it was 5% prior to COVID-19).

Denmark online casino sector 2021, post-COVID-19
Despite the high taxes (compared to other EU countries, which usually have online casinos taxes between 10-20%) the sector, no doubt aided by the global pandemic, is still on the rise, but it’s still far from its full potential. (Context: It went up also 16% in 2015, by far the biggest increase of the sector, and now with COVID it only increased the same amount, with lower taxes, the growth could have been easily 3x of this, and in many European countries the growth was twice as much as this during the pandemic.)
The increase in the online segment is ubiquitous in all developed countries actually, not just Denmark, online gambling appears to gain momentum and it is unstoppable. Not even ever stricter regulations, licensing requirements and higher taxes seem to put a stop to it, and the COVID restrictions aided this significantly.

Slot machines in Denmark
Gaming machines due to stricter regulations on placement and due their declining number and high taxes (41%) are now only the fourth biggest segment (was the third biggest in 2015, went down from 19% of the total in 2015, they are on the losing side of the Danish gambling trends).
The pandemic destroyed the sector, and they experienced an even bigger drop than the casinos.
/Comment: Will they be able to recover? Will see, considering that this segment is mostly compromised of smaller operators, and these smaller venues are not owned by the 1% types, it’s questionable. Only a partial recovery is expected./

Bingo in Denmark
Bingo halls in Denmark: legal, requires a licence
Online bingo in Denmark: legal, requires a licence, monopoly of Danske Spil
There are two known versions of bingo in Denmark. The game generally known as bingo requires a gambling licence, and is not very popular in Denmark.
A local version of bingo, where all the winning numbers are shown at once, is much more widespread in the country (it’s called instant bingo in other countries, In Denmark it’s erroneously just called bingo). However, this is a lottery-style game and as such falls under the monopoly of Danske Spil (except if it’s a charity fundraiser, non-profit bingo).
This type of instant online bingo is available on Danske Spil’s website in several versions. The monopoly applies online as well, which means there are no other licensed online bingo operators.
Regular online bingo could get a licence in Denmark. However, there is no separate online bingo license, therefore, a very expensive online casino would be required.
The following online bingo websites are licensed in Denmark and accept players from the country.
The following online gambling websites have live bingo and accept players from Denmark:
There aren’t any Denmark licensed online bingo sites.
Poker in Denmark
Poker halls in Denmark: legal, in licensed casinos only, no standalone poker halls
Online poker in Denmark: legal since 2012, operators require a licence
Poker is legal according to the 2012 Gambling Act, which introduces the category of “combination games”, where the probability of winning is based on a combination of skill and chance and that is exactly what poker is.
Poker falls into this category, and operators must acquire a casino licence to organize poker events legally. Poker is quite popular in Denmark casinos (the most well-known Danish poker player being Gus Hansen). Casino license is required, there is no standalone poker club license (and consequently there are no standalone poker clubs in Denmark).
Online poker is also legal in Denmark, and poker sites that wish to accept players from Denmark must also apply for an online casino licence. Denmark has made the decision not to “fence off” its online poker market, which means players may compete against poker players from other countries.
The online casinos below have poker and accept players from Denmark.
The following online casino websites have poker and accept players from Denmark:

Lottery in Denmark
Lottery in Denmark: legal, monopoly of Danske Spil state monopoly
Online lottery in Denmark: legal, monopoly of the state owned Danske Spil
In accordance with the law, lottery and keno, scratchcards, raffles and instant bingo (as well as wagering on horse, dog and pigeon races, see above) remain a state monopoly of Danske Spil A/S.
The exception from this monopoly is class lottery, raffles for promotional purposes, normal bingo and non-profit lottery/raffle.
All games offered by the state-run lottery are available online as well. As lottery is a monopoly in Denmark, there are no other licensed online lottery websites in the country. Unauthorised lottery companies operating in Denmark may be blocked and fined.
Purchasing lottery tickets abroad, in person, as a tourist is legal, and purchasing lottery tickets online from so called “lottery purchasing services” is also legal (lottery purchasing services are businesses, which purchase physical lottery tickets for you in a foreign country if you make a purchase on their website, you can see an example of such a website below).
The following websites let people from Denmark purchase lottery tickets online.
The following internet lottery sites accept players from Denmark:
There aren't any online lottery sites, which would accept players from the country. Because online lottery is either illegal or a monopoly of the state-owned national lottery of the country (you can read the details above).
Bitcoin wagering in Denmark
Cryptocurrency gambling in Denmark: not specifically regulated
Bitcoin is legal and quite popular in Denmark. Personal profits from Bitcoin trading are also tax-free, though trading businesses, exchanges are taxed. There are also initiatives promoting an entirely cash-free economy in Denmark, and the virtual currency might play an important part in that.*
Bitcoin casinos are considered gambling establishments under the 2012 Gambling Act, and would require a licence to operate legally. There have been no licences issued to online bitcoin casinos in Denmark to date and none of the existing land-based casinos accept bitcoin or other virtual currency. There aren’t any bitcoin casinos in Denmark.
This is because cryptos are still not accepted as currency officially and therefore they would be problematic from a taxation & accounting point of view.
It’s very likely that brick & mortar casinos will only accept bitcoin in Denmark, when it will recognized as a currency officially (online casinos could in theory accept it sooner by utilizing various payment processors).
Players can use their cryptocurrency only in international bitcoin casinos (some of these have Danish licenses as well, in addition to many other gambling licenses, and this way they can accept crypto as well).
The bitcoin casinos below accept players from Denmark and bitcoin, litecoin and at least one of them ethereum as well.

![]() That's me, Simon, thank you for visiting. 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! |
![]() 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! By being on this site, you agree to terms and conditions, and privacy policy. You must be at least 18, and if you are a gambling addict, or a citizen of Hungary, please leave the site. |
