Can a licensed casino void a win

The licensed casino is obliged to fulfill its financial obligations to the players, including the payment of winnings. However, in some cases, the operator has the right to cancel the win. These situations are strictly regulated by the terms of the license and the rules of the casino itself, and the decision must be documented and justified.

3. Role of license in player protection

The license obliges the operator to act within the approved conditions and not to change the rules retroactively.
In case of unlawful refusal to pay, the regulator may oblige the casino to pay the amount and impose a fine.
The presence of a complaint mechanism gives the player the opportunity to protect their rights.
