What a player risks
In this market, only operators holding the local licence may offer online casino games. An offshore licence, or a licence issued for another market, does not make play legal where a local licence is required. A site that is not licensed for this market is outside the local regulator's supervision: its players have no access to that regulator's protection or dispute resolution, and deposits, payments or winnings may be blocked or confiscated. Depending on local law, using such a site may also lead to fines or prosecution. The register records for Benin: Illegal: only the 4 online operators approved by the CSJ are authorised; the site ••• (which describes itself as the official LNB casino under a Curaçao licence) does NOT appear in the CSJ register.
