Is online gambling legal in Austria?

Austria keeps online casino under a state monopoly while the provinces license sports betting, with an open online licensing system on the way.

Licensing
Online casino games are 'electronic lotteries' under the federal gambling monopoly, held by Österreichische Lotterien (win2day); licences from other EU countries do not count. Sports betting is not gambling under federal law and is licensed by the provinces. A reform notified in August 2026 opens online concessions and adds payment blocking, blacklists and network blocking; unlicensed operators must stop serving Austria by 1 January 2027 to qualify.

How it works here

Under Austria's Gambling Act (GSpG), casino games may not be offered online without a federal concession, and a licence from another EU country does not count; the only concession covering online gambling is the lottery concession held by Österreichische Lotterien, used on win2day.at. Sports betting needs a licence from the federal state instead. A new Gambling Act, sent to the EU for notification in August 2026, would open online gambling to an open concession procedure.
