🎰 Casino Games Taxation (per Session)
Below you will see exactly how taxation works per session in casino games, as well as the tax coverage policy by the company.
In case the taxation is covered by Stoiximan, the amount will be temporarily withheld for record-keeping purposes for legal reasons - and will be refunded to your account when your gaming session ends. You can find out more below under Session Limit.
📊 How the tax is calculated (Bracket)
The tax calculation is done progressively per gaming session:
- Up to €100: Tax-free (€0 tax)
- From €100.01 to €500 (Tax Bracket A): Tax 20% (maximum bracket tax €80)
- Over €500 (Tax Bracket B): Tax 30%
In each bracket, the tax will be withheld for record-keeping purposes, but for bracket A, it will be refunded the same day after the end of the gaming session.
Important note: Tax is calculated on net winnings in the casino section per gaming session:
Example 1: If a member wagers €20 and wins €80, they will have a total of €100 in their account, but since the net profit is €80, they will not be taxed.
Example 2: If a member wagers €20 and wins €150, they will have a total of €170 in their account, but since the net profit is €130, the first €100 will be tax-free, while the remaining €30 will be subject to a 20% tax.
🎁 Tax Coverage Policy by Stoiximan
- Winnings up to €500: Stoiximan covers the tax entirely (up to the €80 cap) and you receive all your winnings in full.
- Winnings over €500 (e.g., €501): The coverage does not apply. The tax is withheld entirely from the winnings for the whole amount above the tax-free limit (€100).
⏱️ Session Limit (Maximum duration 24 hours)
- A gaming session closes automatically 24 hours after its start and starts from the first login of each day.
- As soon as the session closes, the automatic calculation and withholding | settlement of the tax (if any) takes place. If you are in tax bracket A, the tax will be withheld and upon the end of your session, the amount will be refunded to you as withdrawable.
- The withheld tax is not refunded nor can it be offset against a subsequent session.
💳 Bonus Settlement
- If the member plays with a Bonus, the session may close automatically as soon as the wagering requirements are met, so that the corresponding tax can be allocated.
