But I’m just curious, would Stake even approve KYC from India, knowing that gambling is illegal there? Because they’re very strict with KYC, you literally can’t gamble without passing it first. So I’m wondering how that works on their side.

Yeah, Stake is accepting the residents and citizens of India normally. BCgame and all other casinos are doing the same thing. None of the casinos added India to their list of restricted jurisdictions after India passed the gambling-ban bill. Because casino operators know that these kinds of laws aren't strictly enforced in India. So, BC.Game, Stake and other casinos still consider India as a gray area for online gambling. As a result, they are approving the KYC verification normally.

I think there is a minimum amount which you can play that wont trigger any kyc.

I have played many times in bc.game, made some winnings and withdrawals without ever doing kyc. But always like 30-50 bucks at a time...

I believe KYC check triggers mostly randomly. There are people who receive request to pass it even if they only use bonus or made a tiny deposit. I think request to pass KYC depends more not from amount you have used to play but from playstyle. Or it is very individual.

I didn't trigger KYC as well, and I had wins & withdrawals much higher than $50. So I think that TopTort is right, playstyle is important... It's how they catch abusers, especially those who just claim free stuff. There are patterns, some people are doing the same things, playing the same games with a similar style, just to wager to complete requirements and withdraw. I am sure they monitor everything, something trigger automatic check that leads to a manual review... and there you go.

I remember Sportsbet.io banned Indian users from using their website after new gambling laws and regulations in India, but you are generally right. Online casinos usually accept people from India despite of the new laws regarding gambling there.
Turkey is another example. I know online gambling is banned in Turkey too, but I have never seen any online casino that doesn't accept people from Turkey.

Are you from India? If yes, then your statement actually makes sense, especially for people who are having trouble with gambling in a country where it’s illegal.

But if you’re not from a country where gambling is banned, then I agree with you.
With amounts in that range, they probably won’t even bother triggering KYC.

About Sanitough case - if they let you register, then casino close eyes on fact that gambling is illegal in country.

i bet on the playstyle too. i think they have patterns they watch after, and if you go by them - you get a check for yourself..

bitmover is from Brazil.

So this already feels like a standard now for casinos. If Stake is doing it and people accept it, then BC.Game is really not that different from them.

I don't use Stake but @Pmalek tested IP bans on some casinos like if they have a nation in restricted area list, will they actually ban IPs from that nation.

He tested and got this result, with Stake did exactly what they wrote in ToS.
Which casinos have IP blocks in place for restricted countries?
It's true with US, UK, France, but perhaps Pmalek did not test all nations.

[Wapfika]

A bill was passed in the Parliament of India in August 2025 to ban online gambling. So, online gambling is illegal in India now. But none of the casinos have taken any steps to prevent the users of India from playing at their platform. Only the Yolo group casinos (as example: Sportsbet, Bitcasino, etc) have taken a bold step after this new bill, and changed their operating system completely. But other popular casinos like BC.game and Stake are still accepting the players of India normally.

Not sure but from announcement of Sportsbet months ago, it seems the Yolo group possibly considered closing all their gambling business or scaling down their operations first. About popular approach of online casinos as their compliance to laws and regulations in a nation, they usually don't care much about it especially if that nation is not a big one.

They even create mirror sites for people who are from countries that ban online gambling to use their online gambling platforms. Mirror sites are created and used by online gambling companies as supporting tools for their users. They even change their mirror sites with time as adaptation to bypass regulations from some nations and as said to provide possible access to their casinos for users.

That’s not what I understand their announcement. They are just closing all their existing marketing since they are preparing on different approach in terms of their license as they seek to move away from gray area of online casino industry which is by avoiding restricted and acquiring license that has strict adherence to regulations.

BC is probably having problem on finding a local partner for bank account on India right now.

I saw other casino also have temporary disable on fiat deposit specifically on INR.

That thread is pretty outdated. I am sure many casinos have changed in the meantime and some that have not added IP blocks could have done it in the meantime. I am surprised to see that the thread was locked by an administrator. I am not sure why they locked it. Perhaps it was time to update it, but I don't think they locked it because they felt the information was outdated.

I didn't test all nations, of course. Only a few random ones. I also had to make sure my VPN has servers in the countries I tested.

speaking of turkey, i saw this piece of news the other day Crypto Giant Tether Aided Turkey in Billion Dollar Crackdown.
makes me wonder if india would attempt something like that in the future.

well, india is a very profitable market for them, so ofc they won't block it unless they are forced to, and the only way i see that happening is if their license provider (curacao and anjouan) add india to the list of restricted countries.
and even if india slap stake or bc.game or any other big casino with a fine for operating illegally in the country or something like that, i'm sure they would pay it and just consider it a fee for doing business.

From Brazil.

Gambling isn't banned here, but bc.game domain was (or still is, idk). I use some mirrors to acess bc.game

I never have had problems, and kyc never triggered.

If you are from a place which it is banned, and you really want to play, just play small amounts... in my situation it worked well and never trigger kyc.

I see, that’s good to hear. The reason you’re using a mirror is probably because even though gambling isn’t totally banned in Brazil, casinos still need a proper license to be considered legal. And as far as I know, BC.Game doesn’t really have a local license there, they’re operating internationally under an offshore license.

So I guess you made the right decision by only using a small amount to minimize the risk. You never really know, maybe you’ll get lucky in the long run and hit something big like $10k or more. Hopefully, there won’t be any problems when that time comes.

Although the context is different because in my country gambling is illegal (but you can still play because the rules are not too strict for some reason) but I do agree because there can be some problems that we cannot avoid so I also do some games with nominal and small deposits.

But indeed I apply this to all sites not only on BC.Game because as long as I gamble with the demands of the government that still makes this illegal then any possibility can occur, not only from the site but pressure from the government because at any time I could not be able to site because of the government. But when the nominal is small I am not a problem if the worst happens and at least for now I can still gamble.

I don’t think BC.Game is doing this just for the money. It is also about serving the growing community of gamblers in India. Unfortunately, things haven't been easy due to gambling restrictions. But I believe things can be resolved.

And I've noticed lately that after having an official representative, the number of complaints against BC.game has slowed down. That is a good indication that the team is working hard to find the solution. But as usual, not all things can be controlled. Still, some minor issues need to be fixed.

That must be one of the most ridiculous comments I have seen here, and it can only come from a BC rep  .
A casino is NOT doing it only for the money but wants to make the gambling community in India happy?? Did you just say that, honestly? Wow, just wow, that's a funny take on this subject. Sometimes you think you have seen it all and then somebody like you makes a post like this.

Same situation with me. Bc.game was restricted to access but we have our own dedicated mirror link for my country which I can access the casino without the need to use VPN.

It’s tricky and I don’t know why I’m not allowed to use the bc.game while my country is not restricted and we have different mirror link.

Is this mirror link use for legality purposes on this case?

In legal terms, you arent allowed to acess geo blocked content using mirror links.

You are doing so in your own risk. A casino might even refuse to pay you out, if they request kyc and discover that you are using from a banned location (didnt happen with bc.game as far as I know)

May be you are from a country where the laws themselves prohibit access to such gambling sites.
May be not every gambling but some popular ones could be excluded in your country, you need to check those out.
It can also be that your ISP is blocking your region to access gambling sites, gotta check your ISP about it.

[xLays]

Has anyone else here received freebet from bcgame? Check your email, you might have bonus as well. I’m not sure what it’s for, but it’s most likely because of Valentine’s Day promo.
The only problem with this freebet is that it can only be used for single bet (combo not allowed). Still, it’s better than nothing.
My bet is 5 assists for Dort. I don’t think he has recorded 5+ assists in any game this season. I had no choice since this freebet can only be placed on a single bet. Still thankful even if it loses.

[Mahdirakib]

Almost every single casino is having problems with the INR deposit and withdrawal through bank. Besides Stake, BCgame has the highest number of users from India who make fiat transactions by using bank. The INR deposit and withdrawal issues are happening a lot since so long. It is unfortunate that BC.game and some other popular casinos haven’t disabled their fiat payment systems for Indian users despite being aware of this widespread issue

bruh, are you for real? do you really believe what you are saying? they are 100% doing it for the money, same as any other casino out there.

they have not slowed down, most of the people with payments issues just don't bother coming to the forum anymore since they know by now that they can no longer get help from @holy.
