What this is about
More and more online casinos process deposits in cryptocurrencies. This changes nothing about the legal core: losses at providers without an Austrian licence can be reclaimed under civil law against the provider. Payment in new asset classes does not deter us from a reclaim.
Well-known crypto casinos settle fully or partly in cryptocurrencies, including Stake. If the provider does not hold an Austrian licence, the same applies to it as to any other online casino: losses are generally reclaimable.
What matters in the individual case
- the specific provider and its licence status for Austria
- the cryptocurrencies used and the payment channels
- the amount and period of the losses
- the available transaction and account documents
We carry out the technical analysis of the crypto transactions. A blanket statement about the prospects of success is not possible, which is what the free assessment is for.
Legal background
Why crypto casino losses can be reclaimed too
Whether an online casino settles in euros or in cryptocurrencies changes nothing about the legal core. What is decisive is the provider's missing Austrian licence.
-
Missing Austrian licence
A casino that settles in cryptocurrencies also needs an Austrian licence under the Gambling Act. Many internationally active crypto casinos do not hold such a licence.
-
Void gaming contracts
If the licence is missing, the gaming contract is void under civil law. Payment in Bitcoin or other coins changes nothing about this, the provider is decisive, not the means of payment.
-
Confirmed by case law
Austrian courts have confirmed the recoverability of losses at providers without an Austrian licence in several proceedings. The same basis applies to crypto casinos.
What remains decisive is always the specific provider and the individual case. Which provider holds an Austrian licence is something we assess free of charge.
When an assessment is worthwhile
When an assessment is worthwhile
Five indicators that show whether an assessment fits your case. When in doubt, we clarify this in the free initial consultation.
- WORD 01 / 05
Provider without an Austrian licence
You played at a crypto casino that does not hold an Austrian licence.
- WORD 02 / 05
Deposits in cryptocurrencies
You deposited in Bitcoin, Ethereum, stablecoins or other coins. We take care of the conversion into euros.
- WORD 03 / 05
Actual loss over the period
Over the entire period you deposited more than you were paid out. The balance is decisive, not the individual session.
- WORD 04 / 05
Access to transaction data helps
Wallet addresses, exchange exports or platform records make the analysis easier. If they are not fully available, the history can often still be reconstructed.
- WORD 05 / 05
Older losses also relevant
Losses dating back several years can also be relevant. Whether claims are time-barred in the individual case is something we assess free of charge.
Calculated transparently
How the amount awarded is divided

Frequently asked questions
Questions about reclaiming crypto losses
Does this also apply to crypto casinos like Stake?
Yes. Crypto casinos like Stake settle in cryptocurrencies, but this changes nothing about the legal core. If the Austrian licence is missing, losses can also be reclaimed there under civil law against the provider. We check your specific provider free of charge.
Can I reclaim losses at a crypto casino?
Losses at online casinos that settle in cryptocurrencies can also be reclaimed under civil law against the provider, provided it operates without an Austrian licence. Whether this is possible in your case depends on the provider and the individual case. We assess that free of charge.
Does it matter that I deposited in Bitcoin or other coins?
Payment in cryptocurrencies changes nothing about the underlying claim. What matters is whether the provider holds an Austrian licence. We take care of the technical processing of the crypto transactions.
How do you determine the loss amount with fluctuating exchange rates?
We convert every deposit and payout into euros at the rate of the respective point in time. This results in the actual loss over the entire period, independent of later price movements.
Which documents do you need for the analysis?
Wallet addresses, exchange exports, bank statements or platform records are helpful. If they are not fully available, the history can frequently still be reconstructed.
How far back can I claim losses?
Civil claims can, depending on the case, reach back up to 30 years. Shorter periods may apply once the circumstances essential for a reclaim were known. How far your claims reach depends on the individual case and is assessed free of charge.
What does the assessment cost me?
The assessment is free of charge. You pay no upfront payment for lawyers. If successful, R. M. Prozessfinanzierung GmbH retains from 45 percent of the amount awarded, the remaining amount is paid out to you.
Who conducts the proceedings?
The proceedings are conducted by cooperating lawyers. R. M. Prozessfinanzierung GmbH is a litigation funder and not a law firm.
