Online gambling in Romania is open only to operators authorised by the National Gambling Office (ONJN). The licence brings identity checks, deposit limits and a link to the national self-exclusion register.
ONJN operators
Betano, Superbet, Fortuna, Unibet, Betfair, 888, Casino Euro, Mr Green and PokerStars run in lei and accept bank cards, PayU or Paysafecard. Wagering starts at 5x with Superbet and seldom climbs past 40x; cash-outs usually clear in under two days.
Offshore casinos
BC.Game, 22Bit, Vavada, Monro, Lex, Drip and 1GO pull players in with 225% packages or hundreds of spins, often settled in USDT. The catch: a dispute can only go to the regulator in CuraΓ§ao or Anjouan, and the domain may be blocked in Romania without notice.
Wagering in plain numbers
A 500 lei bonus at 35x means 17,500 lei in total bets. On a slot returning 96%, the expected loss over that volume is roughly 700 lei, above the bonus itself. That is why the multiplier tells you more than the headline figure.
β Quick answers
Yes, with operators licensed by ONJN: Betano, Superbet, Fortuna, Unibet, 888 and the others carrying the Romanian flag. Players must be 18 and pass an ID check.
From 1 August 2026 the licensed operator deducts tax at payout: 4% up to 10,000 lei, 400 lei plus 20% on the slice between 10,000 and 66,750 lei, then 11,750 lei plus 40% above that. The money lands already net.
Vavada, BC.Game, 22Bit, Drip, Lex, Monro and 1GO hold no ONJN licence. Packages are larger and crypto is accepted, yet the national self-exclusion register, age checks and complaints to ONJN do not reach them, and ONJN blocks such domains from time to time.
Only licensed operators, which are wired to the ONJN register. On offshore sites a limit has to be requested separately, from the player account or through support.
