A Curacao-licensed sportsbook and casino from the Soft2Bet group, with broad international reach and crypto support

Not available lawfully here

Is Rabona legal in Sri Lanka?

No. Real-money gambling is banned in Sri Lanka. Under Sri Lanka's Gambling Regulatory Authority Act of 2025, in force since 1 December 2025, in force since 2025, Rabona cannot lawfully offer you a welcome bonus here, and you cannot lawfully claim one.

Sri Lanka legalised online betting rather than banning it - but only through operators licensed by the new Gambling Regulatory Authority, which took effect on 1 December 2025 and was intended to be fully operational by 30 June 2026. A licence from the Director-General is mandatory, applicants must be companies registered under Sri Lanka's Companies Act, and a specific digital gambling licence is required to operate online. The other half of that law is why you see no offer here: unlicensed offshore betting sites are explicitly illegal, and the Authority can block them and penalise both the operators and anyone promoting them. We cannot evidence that the operators we cover hold a Sri Lankan digital gambling licence, so we will not point you at one as though we could. If you are in Sri Lanka, check the Authority's own list of licensees rather than trusting any affiliate site, including this one. (Sources cite the Act as both No. 16 and No. 17 of 2025; we report that discrepancy rather than guess which is right.) source

Any Rabona bonus you see advertised for Sri Lanka 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 Sri Lanka regulator can help you recover funds. We therefore show no offer and no sign-up link on this page.

Pros

  • Genuinely broad sportsbook: 40+ sports, 2,000+ live events monthly
  • Cryptocurrency payment support
  • Backed by the multi-brand Soft2Bet group
  • Wide international market coverage

Cons

  • Operator Rabidi N.V.'s Curacao licence OGL/2023/103/0067 was revoked with effect from 11 June 2024, per the regulator's enforcement register
  • Licensed only via Curacao (and possibly Anjouan/Comoros), weaker than MGA/UKGC
  • Blocked in several major regulated markets (Spain, UK, US, Portugal)
  • Newer operator (2019) with a shorter track record than established rivals
  • Bonus terms and product availability vary significantly by country

Our verdict

Rabona, founded in 2019 and operated by Rabidi N.V. under the Soft2Bet group (alongside sister brands PlayZilla, Sportaza and LuckyElektra), offers a genuinely broad hybrid sportsbook and casino covering over 40 sports and 2,000+ live events monthly, with crypto payment support. Its licensing, however, is a real trust consideration: Rabona operates under a Curacao Gaming Commission licence, with some sources additionally citing an Anjouan (Comoros) licence — both lower-tier compared to MGA or UKGC regulation. Rabona is notably blocked in several major regulated markets (Spain, UK, US, Portugal, Ukraine, Bulgaria), while it remains available across a wide spread of other countries including Germany, Austria, Canada, Brazil and India. If you're in one of its supported markets and comfortable with Curacao-tier regulation, Rabona delivers a broad product — just weigh the lighter regulatory oversight into your decision.

Customer support (10%)6.5

Backed by the Soft2Bet group's multi-brand operating experience, though newer than more established competitors.

Trust & licensing (20%)4.5

Licensed only via Curacao (with some sources citing an additional Anjouan/Comoros licence), both weaker-tier regulation than MGA/UKGC alternatives — a real trust consideration. Rabidi N.V., named in this review as Rabona's operator, held Curacao licence OGL/2023/103/0067. That licence was REVOKED with effect from 11 JUNE 2024. Scored on that, not on any allegation about how the site treats customers - we have no evidence either way, and that is the problem: the licence we pointed readers to as assurance is gone. Kept at its previous 4.5 rather than nudged up: a revoked licence is no reason for a brand to score better than it did before we checked.

Rabona FAQ

Is this site's Curacao licence still valid?

Rabidi N.V., named in this review as Rabona's operator, held Curacao licence OGL/2023/103/0067. That licence was REVOKED with effect from 11 JUNE 2024. We checked this against the Curacao Gaming Authority's own Enforcement Register, updated 10 July 2026, which lists licences revoked, suspended or not extended. Two honest limits on that: the CGA says the register covers only actions affecting licence status and may not be complete, and the separate Online Gaming License Registry names licensee COMPANIES rather than consumer brands - so we cannot rule out that this site now operates under a different licensee, in Curacao or elsewhere. What is certain is that the licence we previously cited as your assurance is no longer in force. If licensing matters to your decision, ask the operator directly which licence it holds today and check that number on the regulator's register before depositing.
