A crypto casino targeting Japan under an offshore licence
Not available lawfully hereIs Bitcasino legal in Japan?
No. Real-money gambling is banned in Japan. Under the Penal Code gambling offences and the revised Basic Law on Measures against Addiction, in force since the revised law took effect in September 2025, Bitcasino cannot lawfully offer you a welcome bonus here, and you cannot lawfully claim one.
Only public pari-mutuel sports and lotteries are legal in Japan; offshore online casinos are not. Online casino-related arrests hit a record 196 in 2025, up more than 38% on 2024. The revised law also criminalises intermediary 'reach' sites and social media promotion that funnel players to offshore casinos, and the first arrests over an affiliate site followed in September 2025. source
Any Bitcasino bonus you see advertised for Japan is offered from an offshore site operating against local law. Your payments can be blocked, your account can vanish with a mirror domain, and no Japan regulator can help you recover funds. We therefore show no offer and no sign-up link on this page.

- Documented case of a withdrawal denied and account closed after KYC was completed
- AskGamblers logs 13 complaints (8 resolved), mostly about withdrawals
- Trustpilot rates it a very low 2.1, with consistent complaints of prolonged KYC verification loops and funds confiscated over vague T&C breaches

Our verdict
Bitcasino is a crypto casino targeting Japan, offering a sizeable tiered welcome package up to 5,000 USDT across the first 3 deposits (100% up to 1,500 USDT on the first, 50% up to 2,000 USDT on the second, 100% up to 1,500 USDT on the third; minimum deposit 50 USDT or equivalent crypto each time, 30x wagering requirement, maximum bet 4 USDT while the bonus is active). Bitcasino is operated by Moon Technologies B.V. (Yolo Group, established 2014), genuinely licensed under Curacao GCB licence OGL/2023/111/0069 — independently confirmed — rather than a Japanese domestic licence, since Japan restricts online casino gambling for residents. A separately-claimed Swedish offer could not be independently verified against a specific Spelinspektionen licence number and is excluded from this review as unconfirmed rather than assumed genuine. A real, serious, disclosed caution: casino.guru gives it a 'Below Average' Safety Index (5.4) with 4 direct complaints (9,175 black points), citing a high value of denied payouts relative to the casino's size, including a documented case of a withdrawal denied and the player's account closed after KYC was completed. AskGamblers separately logs 13 complaints (8 resolved), the majority about withdrawals.
