Our verdict on Open The Box
Pros and cons of Open The Box
✅ Pros
- More generous bonuses than Belgian law allows
- Bigger game catalogue than Belgian licence holders
- Often more payment options, e-wallets included
❌ Cons
- No statutory €200-per-week deposit limit
- Disputes fall outside Belgian oversight
- Bancontact not always available
What you play on
Open The Box operates outside the Belgian licensing system and therefore shows a wider catalogue than a B+ hall may: thousands of slots, live dealers and newer formats. Without a licence, EPIS and the statutory deposit limit go too.
The Belgian format revolves around dice games: 777 Win Spinner, Open The Safe, Infinity Dice, those titles barely exist outside Belgium, which explains the gap with an international casino.
The legal side
Open The Box does not appear in the Belgian licence register. The regulator's black list — over 900 addresses — names openthebox.
No Belgian licence means no EPIS link and no statutory weekly limit. In a disagreement the Belgian regulator sits outside the loop.
What is asked at registration
Registration looks similar at every operator: name, date of birth and documents, before anything is paid out. An ID and something that evidences your address usually suffice.
Support quality varies, and any conflict is settled on the operator's terms. Archive what you receive about deposits and withdrawals; in a dispute over a payout those are the only documents that count.

The dice games are simply more fun than the standard slots.
Weekly limit, age bar and exclusion
The Belgian legislator approaches player protection above the European average in strictness which feeds straight into your play limit. Every licensed site applies a default deposit limit of €200 per week. A lower limit takes effect directly, going beyond that takes a review and time.
EPIS is the Gaming Commission's central exclusion system: whoever registers is barred everywhere immediately, online as well as offline. Unlicensed sites are not connected to it. For casino, gaming hall and betting the bar has been 21 since September 2024; lottery products are the exception at 18. A trial account falls under it too.

Always work the wagering through: 35x on a €50 bonus means €1,750 of turnover before a payout. Check whether your game counts before you start. Without converting to euros a percentage says nothing.
21 — that has been the rule since the 2024 reform, National Lottery aside. A falsified age costs you the whole balance at payout. Trial accounts fall under the same limit.
€200 per week per site by default. Lowering it is immediate; raising it needs a check and a delay. A lower limit is active immediately. It is on by default; you need do nothing.
Yes. Bancontact and Bancontact Pay are the standard deposit methods; withdrawals go by bank transfer. Always pay from an account in your own name. The deposit shows on your account immediately.
