Crypto at online casinos: depositing with Bitcoin & co. from Austria

At Spinanga, LunuBet, BassBet, Spinrollz and Kingmaker, crypto at an online casino first of all means a long list in the Austrian cashier: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Tether USDT, USD Coin USDC and further coins appear there on both the deposit and the withdrawal side. Players from Austria who want to pay from a wallet rather than by card or bank account therefore do not take a special route at these brands, but use a regular entry in the same list that also contains eps, card, Revolut, bank transfer and MiFinity.

How crypto fits in next to these routes, and which method works in which direction at which casino, is set out casino by casino in the overview of payment methods compared.

The core question: does a casino accept crypto, and what happens to the money afterwards? The answers are based on the cashier lists and terms of the five brands. Where Casino.Guru or AskGamblers give different figures, this is noted alongside as a discrepancy, without giving either source priority. Where no information exists at all, the page says “no information”.

IIIWhich coins the 5 casinos list

The crypto lists of the five Austrian cashiers are almost identical. Each names Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Litecoin, Tether USDT, USD Coin USDC, TRON (TRX), BNB, Dogecoin, Solana and Cardano. USDT does not appear as a single entry but on four networks: ERC20, TRC20, BEP20 and Solana. USDC is listed as ERC20 and Solana at Spinanga, BassBet and Kingmaker, as “USDC (incl. Solana)” at LunuBet and as “USDC (also on Solana)” at Spinrollz.

The differences lie mainly in the spelling. Spinanga lists the coins by full name, for example “Tether USDT”, “USD Coin USDC” and “TRON (TRX)”. BassBet adds each ticker in brackets: Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA). LunuBet and Spinrollz shorten to “TRX” and “DOGE”. The naming changes nothing about the payment itself, but it helps when looking for an entry in a cashier that, at some brands, contains more crypto entries than classic methods.

LunuBet is a good example of this weighting. Alongside eps, card, Revolut, bank transfer and MiFinity, its deposit list contains USDT on four networks, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, TRX, USDC, BNB, DOGE, Solana, USDC Solana and Cardano. How the crypto entries at this brand work together with the other methods, minimum amounts and withdrawal rules is shown in detail on the page about LunuBet Casino payment methods.

A different list for Kingmaker. Kingmaker's Austrian cashier names the same coins as the other brands. According to Casino.Guru, however, Kingmaker's crypto selection comprises Bitcoin, Tether, Ethereum, Cardano, Dogecoin, Ripple, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash and USD Coin. Ripple therefore appears only in the Casino.Guru list, not in the cashier; BNB, TRX and Solana appear only in the cashier. Both statements stand side by side. For an actual deposit from Austria, what the cashier shows when opened is what counts.

What is not listed. The cashiers do not name a specific wallet or exchange. Anyone searching for “casino metamask” or “binance casino” will find only coins and networks in the lists, BNB among them, but neither MetaMask nor Binance as a payment method of its own. A crypto voucher is not listed in the data either. Paysafecard and PayPal are not in the Austrian cashier of any of the five brands, neither for deposits nor for withdrawals.

Players who prefer not to use a wallet can pay straight from their own account at these brands: eps and bank transfer are listed for deposits at Spinanga, LunuBet, BassBet, Spinrollz and Kingmaker, and bank transfer for withdrawals as well. How classic paying by bank transfer differs from eps and which amounts apply there is covered on a separate page. The main difference from crypto is that the bank books the amount in euros, whereas in a crypto payment a coin with its own exchange rate sits between wallet and cashier.

IVDepositing with crypto: wallet, network, address

A crypto deposit differs from a card or bank payment in one fundamental respect: the casino does not collect the amount; the player sends it from their own wallet to an address shown by the cashier. That leaves three decisions with the player, namely which coin, which network and which amount. The cashiers of the five brands list every coin, and for USDT and USDC every network, as a separate entry, so the payment starts with choosing the right entry.

This choice matters most for USDT, because ERC20, TRC20, BEP20 and Solana are separate lines in the cashier. The entry in the cashier and the network over which the wallet sends the amount should match. Whether a coin additionally requires a memo or tag is not stated in the cashier lists; what counts is what the cashier displays next to the address for the selected entry.

1. 1

   Open the cashier

   Go to the deposit section of the account and select the desired coin from the list of Austrian methods, plus the network for USDT or USDC.

2. 2

   Enter the amount in euros

   Enter the deposit amount in euros; the cashier shows the minimum per coin, which for Bitcoin is €30 at all five brands.

3. 3

   Copy the address

   Copy the deposit address shown and, if the cashier displays a memo or tag, copy that value as well.

4. 4

   Send from the wallet

   In your own wallet choose the same coin on the same network, paste the address and send the amount.

5. 5

   Checking the credit

   Back in the cashier, check that the amount has been credited and keep the transaction details from the wallet.

VMinimum amount in crypto

The cashiers state the minimum crypto deposit in euros, not in coin units. Spinanga, BassBet, Spinrollz and Kingmaker use two tiers: a low amount for most coins and a higher one for Bitcoin. LunuBet sets the lower tier higher. In detail:

• Spinanga: according to the Austrian cashier €10 (e.g. Ethereum, USDT, Litecoin), €30 for Bitcoin.
• LunuBet: according to the Austrian cashier Bitcoin €30, other cryptocurrencies €20; the brand's payments page also lists Ethereum €20 and USDT TRC20 €20.
• BassBet: €10 for USDT, USDC, ETH, LTC, TRX, BNB, DOGE, SOL, ADA and BCH; Bitcoin €30.
• Spinrollz: 10 EUR for USDT, USDC, Ethereum, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, TRX, BNB, DOGE, Solana and Cardano; Bitcoin 30 EUR, as also stated on the payments page.
• Kingmaker: €10 for USDT, USDC, ETH, LTC, BCH, TRX, BNB, DOGE, SOL and ADA; Bitcoin €30, as also stated on the payments page.

Bitcoin is therefore the coin with the highest minimum deposit at all five brands. Anyone wanting to start with a small amount finds the lower tier at Spinanga, BassBet, Spinrollz and Kingmaker with Ethereum, Litecoin or USDT. At LunuBet it is €20 for all coins except Bitcoin, according to the Austrian cashier.

BassBet shows how the crypto tiers sit next to the other methods in the cashier. There, €10 applies to card, PlayID, Revolut, bank transfer, MiFinity and most cryptocurrencies, €15 to eps and €30 to Bitcoin; the welcome bonus requires €20. The full figures are on the page about BassBet Casino payment methods.

At the top end, the cashiers cap a single crypto deposit at €5,000 at Spinanga, LunuBet, BassBet and Kingmaker, and at 5,000 EUR at Spinrollz. That is the same maximum as for bank transfer and Revolut and clearly more than for eps or card.

The data leave open what happens to an amount below the minimum. One case from Austria revolves around exactly that. The complaint thread asks: “Is it true that you deposited approximately 21 USD in TRX?” The amount was not refunded. The cashier and terms excerpts analysed here contain no rule on whether a deposit below the threshold is credited, sent back or retained. Entering an amount above the minimum deposit of the chosen coin in the cashier from the outset avoids the question. The lower limits of all methods per casino are collected there.

VIWithdrawing in crypto

On the withdrawal side, all five brands list the same coins as for deposits: Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Litecoin, USDT on four networks, USDC, TRX, BNB, Dogecoin, Solana and Cardano. The terms govern which route a payout takes. Spinanga, BassBet, Spinrollz and Kingmaker pay out via the same method used for the deposit wherever possible, and reserve the right to use a different payment system. LunuBet words it similarly: the same method wherever possible, otherwise another option, with bank transfer as the fallback. Players who deposit with crypto therefore usually receive their withdrawal in crypto too.

Minimum withdrawal. The figures here are higher than for deposits:

• Spinanga: according to the Austrian cashier €20 (PlayID, Ethereum, USDT and other crypto), €60 for Bitcoin.
• LunuBet: €20 for crypto, Bitcoin €60 according to the Austrian cashier.
• BassBet: €20 for PlayID and cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin, Bitcoin €60.
• Spinrollz: crypto 20 EUR, Bitcoin 60 EUR.
• Kingmaker: crypto €20, Bitcoin €60.

Duration. For withdrawal times, processing by the casino has to be separated from the transfer itself. For processing, Spinanga states 3 working days (Mon–Fri) after the request. BassBet, Spinrollz and Kingmaker also state 3 working days, with processing Monday to Friday from 6–17 GMT. Kingmaker additionally shows “Transaction may take 1-5 working days” in the cashier. LunuBet states 72 business hours at VIP level 1, 48 at level 2 and 36 at levels 3–5 according to its terms, but four working days according to its FAQ. A specific figure for crypto withdrawals exists only for Spinanga, and from a third-party source: 0–24 hours according to AskGamblers. For LunuBet, BassBet, Spinrollz and Kingmaker there is no information on how long a crypto withdrawal takes.

At Spinrollz, withdrawal limits depend on the VIP level: at level 1 they are 500 EUR per day and 7,000 EUR per month. Verification documents must be submitted within 30 days, the check usually takes up to 10 days, and for refunds Spinrollz checks ownership of the payment method. More on the page about Spinrollz Casino payment methods.

For verification, BassBet and Kingmaker require ID and proof of address in addition to proof of ownership of the payment method. For a crypto withdrawal this means the wallet receiving the money must be the one whose ownership can be proven, and the withdrawal address must match the chosen coin and network.

Players who would rather withdraw in euros find card, bank transfer, Revolut, Skrill and MiFinity in the Austrian lists; Skrill is listed for withdrawals only at all five. How these routes interact with crypto is shown in the overview of online casino payment methods for players from Austria. The same-method rule applies here: under the terms, switching from crypto to a euro route is the exception rather than the norm.

VIIPrice swings and network fees

The cashiers calculate in euros, the wallet in coins. Between the two sits an exchange rate that changes constantly. For players from Austria this has two consequences. First, the euro value the cashier assigns when a payment arrives may differ from what the wallet showed when it was sent. Second, a payout in coins may later be worth more or less in euros than at the moment of withdrawal. The cashier lists analysed here do not state at which rate or at which moment the conversion takes place.

Casino fees. On the cashier side the information is clear. Spinanga has no deposit or withdrawal fee stored in its cashier, none is activated at LunuBet, BassBet's cashier data show no activated fee, and in Spinrollz's payment list no fee is activated for any Austrian method. Kingmaker shows the fee fields per method as 0.0000, with the fee not activated.

The terms of all five brands do, however, contain a cost rule. Under terms 6.8 a minimum turnover of x1 applies: if less than the deposit amount is wagered before a withdrawal, the operator may retain 10 % of the last deposit, at least 0.5 EUR, as payment costs, or 15 % for bank card or bank transfer. For a crypto deposit withdrawn again without play, this clause is the most important cost item on the casino side.

Under terms 6.18, Kingmaker additionally charges 5 EUR per month for an account inactive for 180 days. According to Casino.Guru, withdrawals are limited to 500 EUR per day and 7,000 EUR per month; the operator's terms give no amounts for this. All figures are on the page about Kingmaker Casino payment methods.

Network fee. Unlike the casino fee, the fee for the transfer is charged in the crypto network or by the wallet or purchase service. The cashier lists of the five brands say nothing about it. Two voices show the possible effect: one player reports making “a deposit via Moonpay (75 euros minus fees)” that was not credited; another asked about the costs after writing: “I recently deposited with Bitcoin to a casino.” Together with the Austrian case in which the transferred amount did not match the announced one, a practical question arises: how can the fee be taken into account so that the announced amount actually arrives? The casinos give no rule for this. It helps to check in the wallet whether the displayed fee is added to the amount or deducted from it.

Players who would rather not keep an eye on exchange rates and network fees can pay in euros. Visa and Mastercard are listed in both directions at all five brands, usually as “Pay by Card” and “Withdraw to Card” in the cashier. What applies there regarding amounts, the return route and Apple Pay is covered on the page about credit cards at casinos.

VIIICrypto and tax: what the Income Tax Act says

The Austrian Income Tax Act (EStG) names cryptocurrencies explicitly. Under § 27 EStG, income from cryptocurrencies counts as income from capital assets; the statutory text refers to income “and from cryptocurrencies (para. 4a)”. § 27b EStG defines what counts as a realised increase in value. This includes exchanging cryptocurrency “for other assets and services, including legally recognised means of payment”.

What this means for a deposit at a casino or a payout in coins cannot be read from this wording alone. The provisions analysed here contain no statement on the taxation of a player's gambling winnings in Austria and no statement on whether a crypto deposit or crypto withdrawal counts as an exchange within the meaning of § 27b.

Alongside tax law, anti-money-laundering law plays a role, on the bank side. § 6 para. 1 no. 1 FM-GwG covers “establishing the identity of the customer and verifying the identity on the basis of documents” or independent data. A player from Austria describes how this can look in practice under the heading “proof of source of funds because of crypto casino winnings”: his bank asked for evidence of the origin of a five-figure win. His question was: “Is it enough if I present the casino's records of the winnings and withdrawals ...?” The quoted provision does not specify which documents a bank accepts for this. What it does establish is the duty to verify identity on the basis of documents. The verification documents from the casino, meaning statements, transaction history and proof of wallet ownership, are documents a player has already put together anyway.

How gambling law, banks and payments fit together in Austria overall is explained on the page about the legal situation in Austria. Under § 3 GSpG, gambling is reserved to the federal state. According to government bill RV 594 d.B., payment blocking (§ 56e, § 51a) is to be introduced. Entry into force is planned with the end of 31.12.2026; as of 09.10.2026 the bill is with the Finance Committee and deliberations have not yet begun. Whether and how these plans would affect crypto payments is not apparent from the data analysed.
