A Romanian-founded sportsbook and casino group backed by Blackstone, licensed in Romania and Poland

Context for Romania: Romania's check runs the opposite way to most people's instinct, and getting it backwards is the common mistake. The ONJN publishes both a blacklist of unlicensed domains and a WHITE LIST of licensed operators - Class I for operators, Class II for suppliers - and only the white list makes play lawful. A site being absent from the blacklist proves nothing: you will probably still be able to reach it, but playing there is unlawful unless it appears on the white list. The blacklist is large and actively enforced - 1,546 domains have been ordered blocked by ISPs, and Polymarket was added on 29 October 2025. Check any operator against the Class I list at onjn.gov.ro before depositing rather than trusting a licence badge or an affiliate page, this one included. The market is also tightening fast: Law 141/2025, in force from 1 August 2025, raised the annual authorisation tax from 21% to 30% of gross gaming revenue and the minimum annual fee from EUR 400,000 to EUR 480,000; operators need a permanent establishment in Romania and, where their servers sit abroad, mirror servers on Romanian soil giving ONJN real-time access. Advertising rules are moving too - celebrity and influencer endorsements are already banned across TV, radio and social media, Bucharest is removing gambling publicity from city-controlled outdoor sites from 1 January 2026, and the regulator's 2026 agenda proposes raising the gambling age from 18 to 21 plus restricting online promotions between 06:00 and midnight.

Pros
- Genuine ONJN Romania licence plus a Polish retail and online licence
- Major institutional backing from Blackstone and HPS
- Market leader in Romania with expansion across ~12 countries
- Large, well-established organisation (~5,000 employees)
- Sister brands (Napoleon Sports & Casino, Lucky7) broaden the product range
Cons
- Core strength concentrated in Central/Eastern Europe, less global reach
- Bonus terms and product availability vary significantly by country
- Newer entrant in some expansion markets (Brazil, Spain)
- Less brand recognition outside its core European footprint
Our verdict
Superbet has grown from a single betting shop in Oradea, Romania in 2008 into one of Central/Eastern Europe's largest gambling groups, now backed by major institutional capital: Blackstone invested €175 million in 2019, and the group refinanced €1.3 billion alongside HPS in 2025. It holds a genuine ONJN Romania licence (Superbet Casino No. C75273) and a Polish retail and online licence secured in 2019, with further presence in Belgium, Serbia, Brazil, Spain and Croatia — around 12 markets in total, plus sister brands Napoleon Sports & Casino and Lucky7. That combination of real market leadership in Romania and serious institutional backing gives Superbet one of the more credible corporate profiles among the operators covered here. If you're in one of its core European markets, it's a well-capitalised, well-regulated choice.
