Frequently asked questions
Are the casinos on this list legal in Portugal?
Yes. We only list operators holding a valid licence issued by SRIJ, the Portuguese regulator. You can confirm each licence on the official list of licensed entities.
What is the minimum age?
You must be 18 or older. Licensed operators verify the identity of every customer at sign-up.
Does Casino Ponto accept bets?
No. We are an independent information portal. We do not accept deposits or bets; we only review licensed operators.
How do you make money?
Some links are affiliate links: if you open an account with an operator, we may earn a commission. This does not change the order or the scores. See our Disclosure.
How can I set limits?
Every operator licensed in Portugal offers deposit limits and self-exclusion in the account area. You can also request self-exclusion directly from SRIJ.
Where can I get help?
You can call the SICAD helpline on 1414, or contact Gamblers Anonymous. Details are on the Responsible Gaming page.
Are winnings taxed?
In Portugal the special tax is paid by the licensed operator. For specific cases, consult a professional or the Tax Authority.
