Why Casinos Without a Swedish Licence Are Flourishing in 2025
"According to Casinoburst, offshore casinos continue to gain traction among Swedish players despite Sweden's 2019 gambling regulations. Recent figures from Spelinspektionen show that nearly 14% of Swedish gambling traffic now flows to unlicensed sites."
"Unlicensed casinos offer multiple welcome offers, reload bonuses, free spins, and cashback, while Swedish licence rules allow just one bonus per player."
"Several factors drive the trend of unlicensed casinos, including lucrative bonuses, bypassing Spelpaus exclusions, higher transaction limits, and greater privacy."
"Legally, it's illegal for an operator to solicit Swedish players without a licence, but Swedish citizens may legally gamble on EU‑licensed offshore sites and enjoy tax‑free winnings."
Unlicensed online casinos operate without approval from the Swedish Gambling Authority while holding licenses from international bodies. Approximately 14% of Swedish gambling traffic is directed towards these unlicensed sites, attracting players with lucrative bonuses, flexible play, diverse payment options, and Swedish-language interfaces. Key attractions include ongoing promotions beyond Sweden's limitations, the ability for self-excluded players to gamble, higher transaction limits, and increased privacy. Although illegal for operators to target Swedish players, gambling on EU-licensed offshore sites is legal for Swedish citizens, providing tax-free winnings.
