Checking for a Danish Licence
Betting in Denmark is regulated by the Danish Gambling Authority (Spillemyndigheden). You should only use sites that hold a local licence to ensure your funds and data are protected by Danish law.
To verify a site:
- Look for the official “Tilladelse fra Spillemyndigheden” logo, usually found in the website footer.
- Check the operator’s name against the public list of licence holders on the Spillemyndigheden website.
- Confirm the site uses a .dk domain, as most licensed operators are required to do so.
If a site does not have a Danish licence, you lack legal protection if they refuse to pay out your winnings.
Payments and Identity Checks
Most Danish betting sites require you to use MitID for registration and logins. This is a legal requirement to verify your identity, age, and residency. It makes the sign-up process faster but means you cannot bet anonymously.
Common payment methods include:
- Dankort and international debit or credit cards.
- MobilePay (widely used for instant deposits).
- E-wallets and direct bank transfers via services like Trustly.
You may still need to provide extra documents, such as a utility bill, if your MitID details do not fully satisfy the bookmaker’s Know Your Customer (KYC) checks.
Taxes and Geo-restrictions
If you win money on a site licensed by the Danish Gambling Authority, your winnings are tax-free. The bookmaker pays a gambling tax to the state before you receive your payout. However, if you choose to use an unlicensed offshore site, you may be legally required to report those winnings as personal income and pay tax on them.
Even if a site appears on international lists, it may still block Danish sign-ups. Always ensure you are not using a VPN when creating an account. Using a VPN to bypass geo-blocks often results in your account being frozen and your deposits being lost during the verification stage.
Safer Gambling and Self-Exclusion
Denmark operates a national self-exclusion register called ROFUS. If you register with ROFUS, you are automatically blocked from all licensed online and land-based gambling providers in Denmark.
Licensed sites must also provide:
- Mandatory deposit limits that you set during registration.
- A visible clock on the screen to help you track time.
- Direct links to “StopSpillet,” the national helpline for problem gambling.
