Looking to start an online casino

I guess you need something like business consultant for gambling to give you more specific advice and process in a legal way. Only if you want it to make a legal business.

Opening a gambling business surely will involve a large sum of money from development to deployment and marketing, even aftersales stage.

Now, if you want it to make a DIY way if you don't have enough funds for this and not considering a license, the I guess you should focus on the design, the smoothness of the system, the funds of it.
You should note too that most people in gambling industry preferred playing to licensed ones. Although others preferred not since unlicensed casino means no KYC involve.

I believe there are many other things one should look at to earn decent money.
The gambling is not profitable all the time - and sometimes it is more a torture than blessing. So better be careful before landing into the world on gambling - its not easy to get out of it.

I have a background in coding, and I know the in and outs of integrating crypto, yet i have zero game development skills, and i have no idea how much it will cost, and will it even get users.

Online casino is indeed a good business but it's not that easy to build it even if you are knowledgeable in coding. Even if you manage to create the website alone and get it a license, you will need other staffs that will help you to manage the platform. You will need to think of marketing strategies on how to attract users on your website. You will also need a customer support that will cater to the issues that your users will experience.

Any help would be well appreciated! and looking for partners if anyone wants to start that.

Thank you!

Creating or building a casino is not easy. Although you have that basic, this is not enough because the casino is not only about its creation platform. if you want to build a reputable online casino, you must have a strong and professional team that will help you to create, develop, manage, control, and also promote the platforms. this is done to make your casino online get bigger, more reputable, and also get more users. However on more this may not be easy because you may also need money to develop and promote the platform.
But, if you don't want to make such complicated things or activities, why don't you seek a job that relates to your basic?

OP is not that weak person to start a business that he does not understand and also there are chances that they wanted to earn but the main thing here is to serve gamblers and also to put a service that this will last long .

and maybe OP is not having second thought as he open a escrow service instead of creating a gambling site that we can find in his newly created thread .

Hey guys!

So I am interested in starting an online bitcoin casino, yet i have no idea how to start from.
I have a background in coding, and I know the in and outs of integrating crypto, yet i have zero game development skills, and i have no idea how much it will cost, and will it even get users.

I think one area that is extremely important is the legal one.

The technical aspects are relatively simple compared to knowing all the details of the laws and making sure there are no issues with the users.

You will need to enforce all the local rules of all the countries you want to serve. Not a simple task

OP seems sincere as a newbie in this business so I believe that he wants to make a fair and legal business only not illegal where he can turned in to a scam later on. That one that you suggest, having a consultant is no doubt helpful but here in crypto or in bitcoin, anyone can start their own casinos immediately even without it and I think that having it can only add on the expense and then it can take some time for it to be processed.

Lastly it can demand users to do a kyc, which contradicts to the real purpose of decentralization or anonymity or cryptos. We know that many gamblers are sick and tired of kyc but majority of them values their privacy.

I think it's good to value your privacy - I was an open book and I had no idea about it unless I have suffered an identity theft issue.
some people are too evil to deal with. They misuse you - and cherry on the top - they blame you and curse you and kick you out of the room, Have you ever met someone like this I have met such kind of jerks twice.

 actually there's a lot of streamers nowadays when it comes gambling if you want to gain knowledge, and it's the easiest way to adopt such environment IMO.
Infact there's a lot of popular gambler around the internet that use to stream everytime they gamble. so it's a big help for you to get more information and surely you can adopt it ASAP afterwards.. But just put efforts how to find them in the internet.

I feel sorry about your bad experience. I guess that's too traumatic on your part and that's one of the reasons why we can't blame players who don't want to comply with the KYC requirements. There are scammers and users that might steal your personal data which is really dangerous. That's why lots of gamblers prefer casino sites that won't ask us to submit the KYC process.

When i say legal it means having a license casino business, because you can run unlicensed too and running unlicensed casino it is not illegal. Crypto casino/gambling starts on full non-kyc, it only require most of them when authorities requires it, that time was when crypto/bitcoin become more popular.

Like you said, anyone here in crypto can start business but op doesnt know how it works so having a consultant is a good move. Since he probably will create his own platform knowing he know to code and will not hire a casino service provider i mean the gaming software companies.

Like what im trying to say, casino asking KYC are those who are licensed since this is required when you are following regulations for the business you build. That means having a casino licensed means asking kyc to your users.
So expect it when you create an account to a licensed casino you will be asked kyc, sooner or later after playing and gaining more wins or facing an issue later.

With the coding knowledge you have all you can do is to develop a site which can be a casino but it doesn't make a casino in reality.

To start an online casino first you need to have capital like huge capital to get the license and to manage the bankroll for a while even if you set the highest winning reward is minimal range like only few thousands, then you need to reach the people because there are hundreds of other existing casinos are here so for the marketing alone you need influencers as well as funds.

After achieving all this, the biggest problem remains in obtaining the necessary licenses.
Of course, it is possible to launch the casino without licenses, and some countries enable their citizens to launch these services, but then it will be difficult to obtain the trust of users easily. Some trusted members of the forum can do this and then their reputation and history of trust will be the guarantor of the casino's integrity. As for unknown investors, they will need to obtain these licenses.

Launching without obtaining a license is a BIG NO, just like any business, they should acquire a license first before launching.  This will save them a lot of troubles and enable them to operate and promote their Casino without any legal worries.  Launching with license also boost the trust of possible players on the platform.

Yes, getting license it such a pain. For example an online gambling website in my country needs to be verified and legal, because as soon as your website gets users and become well known government will see this, also our banks doesn't accept money came from gambling even legally or not, basically you need the trust of the government and the people, it is very hard to create gambling website in our country, I hope that ts has a good country that will not prevent him or will give him a hard time licensing it.

running and operating a casino or gambling site is no easy feat. this is not for all. aside from all those backbreaking requirements, you should be prepared with enough bankroll to get going. i hope people are thinking hard before jumping on this business. it is no easy peasy to maintain this business also. this is why if you are just half-hearted on this, better not involve yourself on this endeavour.

I think at most of the cases, gambling owners wannabe are doing their respective homeworks on what are the important things to take note prior oponing a gambling site. For site's bankroll, surely they are prepared for it as there are big whales that might come to the site. Aside from that, they will make sure everything is good before going live.

That's the reason why OP created this thread, to feed the mind with knowledge as maybe there are people that might encounter this thread who really knows how running the gambling sites works or related fields. OP seems to really have a good knowledge about coding and what he needs is those who will backed him on how to integrate his idea to them.

this a business for Gambling expert and also a literal gambler that has Good amount of capital because we know how long this would take before players do visit and deposit in your site .
trust is what you need to established and gain respect and players.

so with those I think this business is limited to those who has that attitude,.behavior and capacity .

Starting a casino needs consultants just like you have mentioned to get the appropriate information about how op can get things done. There will be need for programers and other top positions that are needed in the gambling world. Having a Gambling casino need lots of money and right information to work with the right people that can bring good strategy to make the casino a more interesting one. There are some things that do attract gamblers to casinos which should be the first things op will need to fix and put in place.

You are right. If the casino can gain the players' trust, they will benefit from its business, where the players will find comfort in playing gambling at the casino. This can't be found in other casinos even though they both build a casino but if one casino can't provide good service, that casino won't be able to develop better. Maybe getting a license is one way to gain the players' trust, but still, better service can give more trust from the players.

That's why the gambling business attracts many investors to try it but not many business owners can run their gambling business well. In addition to requiring larger capital, it will also have other things to prepare.
