Still not a safe practice even if it works

[Aikidoka]

I would only be wary of VPN concessions not being explicitly written on the user terms page although support may write that elsewhere. When problem solving has to be handled by handing over identities, it becomes a new problem if it's basically a country on the list of restrictions. For shady casinos, this might be an opportunity to cancel out a big win.

Absolutely true. If the TOS explicitly prohibit the use of VPNs, it's advisable to not use it and to avoid potential problems with your account, such as being flagged or locked and even if the TOS does not mention VPN usage, less reputable casinos might invalidate huge wins due to VPN usage as you already mentioned.

Generally, it's wiser to refrain from using a VPN as I don't see a genuine need for its use, especially among gamblers who can legally access gambling sites within their countries. However, if accessing such sites is restricted and a VPN is the only option, remember that using it is on your own risk.

Exactly.

Those gamblers that can't find a way so they ending up using VPN. It's either their country has banned online gambling or that casino doesn't allow residents on that specific country to gamble.

But the decision will depend on the casino and I think most of those that are using VPN that are from restricted countries are likely to have the problems.

While there are gamblers that just wanna use VPN to hide their internet protocol.

Let assume that the country banned their citizens access to a particular gambling site, and some citizens in that country decided to use VPN to access the casino, I don't think there is any problem with that, I mean the casino in particular should not have a problem with that, the only time that can become a problem particularly for the user or users is when for whatever reason, the casino asks for a KYC verification, and this is only because the location in the document used for the verification will be different from the location, IP such user have been accessing the casino with, this is the only area where i think problem might arise from..

One time Nigerian government banned the citizens access to twitter, several of us turned to VPN to access our twitter accounts, there was never a problem, though this can not be compared to gambling casinos though, the only time i feel using VPN can become really problematic is when its the casino that banned the use of VPN in their site, and some gamblers from restricted areas decide to use VPN to access and play on the same casino.

There's no problem with that if the country has banned online gambling since it's not the platform that has banned the country so it's the other way around.

But as for the verification, you're right with that. The casino has the rights to ask their users from those countries that have banned gambling for follow ups for their own purposes.

Only a few would really be having that reasoning that just because they do love on hiding up their IP location on why they do make use of VPN compared to those people who do have restricted access due to country ban.
There's no sense that people would be making use of VPN if they arent really that restricted considering that most IP providers do give out that dynamic and not static ip address which it could really changed out on the time that you would really be able to reset out the router on which it would really be just that normal that they wont really be bothering themselves in regarding to this matter. Whenever you do see that there's on their terms and conditions in regarding about country restriction then why would really be forcing up yourself to play if there are lots of options out there on which you could really be able to play on? Why would really be trying out
to break those terms and conditions of a certain site and pushing for you to play even if its against their house rules? This is why dont get shocked if you have been caught and suddenly blocked and those funds been locked up. People wont really bother about the risks involved as long  they could really be able to play.Well, its their money to make use of and have the full rights on what they should gonna do though.

Those that would like to hide their IP locations, I don't think that they're few. With the security matters and issues that has been known these days, many are starting to be conscious with their own security.

That's it's normal for them to hide their ip address, we can see this question like a regular question into those casinos if they're okay with that or not.

Don't try this because there are certain cases already that the gambler able to play using VPN and when he is about to withdraw the money, he was restricted due to this violation so again, if you are not allowed to play on that site better not to push it or try other way just to gamble on that site because its not safe at all. If you are going to gamble with your money better to follow the TOS, read it and understand it so you won't regret playing on that site if something bad happen to your account.

If there's no such thing about words about VPN restriction or something then it would really be just that fine on using but why you would really be using VPN if you could be able to play on your own without using those?
Hiding identity or IP or simply just you dont like for your location to be exposed? Its true that it would be better on playing without having these things so that they wont really be having a reason for them to throw on
on the time that you would really be winning big.Dont find any possible holes on which they could really be making it as a reason for you not to be get paid. If you dont bother that much with your anonymity then it
would really be totally no sense that you would be making use of VPN on which this is something that cant really be avoided on the probabilities that they could really make use of such reasoning for you not to get paid.
So its better to avoid while its still early or else you might really be ending up on regretting basing up on what you are really that able to done.

[Casdinyard]

I don't use VPNs for stuff like that. It's just counterintuitive especially when it comes to dealing with centralized crypto casinos like stake, they'd literally ask you for identification including a proof of residency, there's no point in "using a VPN to throw them off" when your static IP stays the same all throughout. I'm not saying you should stop using VPNs altogether, as they work really well if you're looking for content that is region blocked like movies on netflix and whatnot, but beyond that? I don't see any good reason really.

For one it just slows your internet connection down since now it has to be rerouted into a proxy server before you could do your normal google searching, on the other hand it's a massive hassle to work with even if it just takes "one click".

[ethereumhunter]

but still somehow it is not safe. I mean using a VPN will be a problem in the long term, for example, maybe currently it is safe to access using a VPN but in the future when we get a big win and want to withdraw it, the casino will definitely ask for time to verify your winnings and when investigated you use VPN and be big problem refusing to withdraw your big winnings.
even though the price of a premium VPN is now relatively cheap, I still avoid using a VPN for gambling in the long term.

It could happen because withdrawing a large amount of money will attract the attention of the casino so they want to investigate and make sure before they process the withdrawal. And when casinos want to verify winnings by asking gamblers to do KYC, that's where most gamblers complain that the casinos are trying to cheat them. The use of a VPN may be clearly written in the casino rules so gamblers should already know about it. Yes, the price of a premium VPN is currently relatively cheap but if the casino allows it, it can be taken into consideration to use a VPN. But if the casino doesn't allow it, we don't need to use a VPN to visit the casino and gamble there.

It can be a complicated consideration for someone in some cases. For example, you actively get passive benefits that are proven promising such as staking or dividends, while unfortunately a new casino rule must prohibit you from next week according to your new state policy so that their business remains from legal sanctions. As a result, this change of rule will clearly harm you.

But for compulsive gamblers, they will try to break through restrictions, especially when it is a favorite platform for a long time, an easy solution is to use VPN.

Well, there are many ways to think that the use of the VPN is for bad things, but no, if I, for example, really like being anonymous and being completely anonymous, without leaving traces that can secure me, if I wanted to enter a casino with the same protocol that is used to enter the deepweb, well the casino should accept it, I want to enter like this and neither the casino nor any country should restrict me the way I want to enter, I don't see it well, so they do all this governments with the intention of taking control, not just because players are compulsive and want to do something like that, no, if a player is compulsive and wants to do something similar with or without VPN, they will do it, the technological tools are made is to use them and that is just that governments, banks, third parties, among others, do not like it, so sometimes people think that a VPN is only for doing evil and no, you have to change the approach a bit with respect to that , that sometimes you want to enter a casino, from a country that is prohibited, yes, because the right to have fun should never be diminished, it is a right, I could not say someone who is sitting on a throne or something like that.

I have used the VPN and many times, uff too many, not only for casinos, for excahnges, for many other things, and nothing bad happens, so Sometimes people's Perceptions are Inadequate.


We as gamers do want to enter a gaming Platform using the VPN, we can do it , Perhaps with that we avoid the way that they give our location through VPN, and that for a hacker because it is difficult, and everything to avoid robberies, taking, for me it is welcome, and of course, they are tools that should not be left there, without using them, if they are had it is for use and to give them a correct use, that is why I say something, the time will come for casinos to accept  They are all in their entirety that players from prohibited countries can enter, because there are too many clients that they leave or Outside.

[jostorres]

There are game providers that block a country even though the player is not in a restricted region.  That is the reason for some players why they use VPN. But as for me, I won't dare to use a VPN just to access a certain game provider.  It is better to be safe than sorry.

^ This ! I experienced the issue on Pragmatic Play provider but lately I found out that some local gambling sites now allows Pragmatic Play with no issues. When I say local gambling sites, it means they only accept digital payment methods which are mostly available here in my country.

Good thing that some of them now allows USDT. Who knows? Maybe they will also consider BTC and other cryptos soon. It will still be better if I can play the said provider in my favorite crypto casinos because I'm more confident with them and I have less or no doubts at all that the game results are being manipulated. Another reason on why a gambler can use a VPN is due to connection issues.

[kojektea]

play by the rules, but some countries do prohibit entering gambling sites so they use a VPN to access gambling websites. it doesn't matter, there should be no cheating in using a vpn . it has no impact on their assets, wins or losses. it's just that some people think it's like cheating.

For people tht have high urge for gambling, it might be very difficult for them to comply to some certain rules even though there region is restricted from using a particular gambling site. If they are enjoying some benefits from the site especially there favorite games and good winnings, they would have to look for other means like using VPN to make sure that they keep enjoying the benefits they had been having since. It is very hard for some people to leave an be old gambling platform they had been using for a long time for another one. Some persons don't easily adapt.

It is simply because your country is restricted and you are trying to access the site even if you are not allowed in the first place, again you have to play by the rules and if you are not allowed to gamble then better not to try. There are cases already that those who gamble using VPN suffer from a loss because the site caught then and they can’t withdraw their money anymore because they violated the rules in the first place.

You make good points about VPNs, notably privacy and security. You're right, but only partially. VPNs provide additional security, especially in cryptocurrency exchanges where anonymity can defend against threats. Its not just for bad things; its crucial to our digital toolkit. The claim that casinos or governments shouldnt prohibit its use is complicated.

Remember that restrictions are there for a purpose. The main goals are fraud prevention, anti-money laundering, and responsible gaming. Although obsessive behavior will exist, VPNs inhibit a significant amount of illegal activity. Its not about governments "liking" VPNs; its about transaction trust and legality.

[Peanutswar]

This is the importance of reading the terms and agreement, adding with the FaQs so you can get an idea if the VPN is supported for the platform, if they support the use of the VPN make sure your VPN only has one IP address most likely cause is the users makes a different country to login with their account consider with different IP giving by their VPN and those login make suspicious to the platform and possible they tag the account as suspicious activity and possible freeze even the balance of it. But if you are registered in just single iP and once get detected still the same there's might a lower chance that your account still safe.

@Johnyz is correct because it could harm us later if the casino finds out that we have used a VPN to be able to play gambling at the casino. And when we win big, we may be asked to do KYC, especially if we are from a country where gambling is prohibited and we are using a VPN. Therefore, it is better for us to find a casino that allows us to use a VPN to avoid future problems. We can also look for other casinos that accept our country so we don't need to use a VPN at all. And when we do KYC, we can also directly provide the documents to the casino.

If the casino allow your country and only your local ISP are prohibit you to enter the casino, some of casinos already have mirror site, so you don't have to use VPN. There are some Web 3.0 casino or small casino that usually haven't yet get restricted by government.

Obviously using VPN has nothing to do with luck.

Once our account is detected as suspicious, we will certainly get in trouble and the worst thing to happen is to seize our funds. It was a violation of their rules which we don't have to break because the consequence is harsh which we really have to regret in the end. I think even some people do it successfully but I don't encourage doing it. We might not caught now or tomorrow as we are very careful of our IP and gadgets we use but can't be sure in the coming days.

I agree no cheating should be done using VPN as it further degrades the quality of gambling sites. Many countries around the world do not allow access to gambling sites, but gamblers can easily access gambling sites by using a VPN. It's important to note that a VPN cannot protect you from this. If you have created an account without VPN for gambling, or created an account with VPN and logged in again and again without VPN, then the company may deactivate your account on suspicion of spam. Accessing a site with a VPN is a punishable offense if a site is state off or illegal.

We can’t say for sure,the gamblers who using the VPN re going to scam the gambling site.Because in some countries the casino and gambling site was banned,in such countries people may use the VPN for the game play.Only few VPN help to hide you from the gambling site,the rest will not.So some gambling site will find you easily.Even they will do ban your gambling account for the involvement of VPN usage.If you use multiple account in the same browser,you may get capture by some gambling site.So don’t use multiple accounts first,if you are forced to use multiple accounts.You can try of using accounts on different browsers for your safety.

Creating gambling accounts with VPN is mostly not safe because you're about putting your accounts on a risks of 50/50. Cheating in gambling? Is it even possible for one to cheat in gambling. Perhaps there are important ways were we tend to find out the crucial ways to gamble with ease efforts, mostly preferring to online gambling. VPN are important in countries were the individuals there finds it difficult to gamble on games due to restricted measures place on gambling. It's important we tend to anticipate in what works for us and definitely not the activities that would make us lose money steadily.
