Stake Review

Licence

Our Stake review
Stake.com is operated by Medium Rare N.V. from Curaçao. The operator states that it holds Curaçao Gaming Authority licence OGL/2024/1451/0918. Its products include casino games, live casino, original games, and a sportsbook, with crypto-focused payments.
The terms require registration information and allow identity or compliance checks. They also state that the player is responsible for confirming whether using the service is lawful in their jurisdiction. Availability is therefore not treated as general EU approval and must be confirmed at registration.
Stake offers responsible-gambling policies and self-exclusion support, but the regulatory protection is not equivalent to an MGA or UKGC licence. Crypto price volatility, network fees, wallet-address mistakes, and local gambling law remain additional risks.
