Land-based gambling is regulated by the government. Just operators with proper licences can conduct such activities. There are currently 2 land-based casinos in the country (the Carlton Madagascar and the Colbert Hotel & Casino) offering the most popular games like roulette, poker, blackjack, and slot machines to name a few. It appears that online gambling is not regulated, though. However, players from Madagascar are accepted in numerous offshore online casinos to try out their luck.

Bingo is one of the most popular games in the world, especially in the United States. Despite its worldwide popularity, there aren’t any land-based bingo halls available in Madagascar. It’s okay, though, because players from Madagascar can enjoy a good bingo game in numerous offshore online casinos. Online gambling is not yet regulated in Madagascar so there aren’t any domestic operators as of now in the country.

Poker is quite possibly the most popular casino game ever created. Its ever growing popularity can be traced back to the constant television broadcasts and regularly held world championships. Many would argue that poker is a game of skill rather than a game of chance but in nature, poker still counts as a form of gambling as it is mostly played in casinos. Malagasy players can enjoy poker in the land-based establishments or try out their luck (or skills) in numerous foreign online casinos.

Sports betting is a pretty common form of gambling around the world. Betting on sports appears to be legal in Madagascar as the country has annual horse races tracing back to the French colonial days. However, online gambling is not yet regulated in the country. Therefore, players from Madagascar “have” to bet at foreign online bookmakers if they want to play online and from the comfort of their homes.

The lottery is arguably the most common form of gambling around the world. It is safe to say that where gambling is legal there is a lottery. However, Madagascar does not have a national lottery as of now. Online gambling is not regulated in the country, so there is no domestic online lottery either. Malagasy players can enjoy all kinds of lotteries, however, in numerous offshore online casinos. Some reports suggest that Madagascar struck a deal with a company to conduct online lotteries, but there is no official information on the matter at the moment, though.

Bitcoin is a digital currency often referred to as a “cryptocurrency” invented back in 2008. It quickly gained worldwide popularity as an alternative form of payment. Bitcoin gambling appeared shortly after the introduction of the digital currency. It continues to grow in popularity as more and more online casinos started to specialize in it. However, Bitcoin is still a relatively new phenomenon so only just a handful of countries issued laws concerning it. Some countries see Bitcoin as an asset rather than a currency (like Norway for example). As of now, there are no specific laws in Madagascar concerning Bitcoin gambling or Bitcoin in general. Technically, Bitcoin gambling falls into the online gambling genre (due to most of the trades occur via the internet) which is not regulated in Madagascar yet. However, many offshore online casinos specialized in Bitcoin accept players from Madagascar, though.
