What a Lithuanian casino licence covers
Lithuania runs an open licensing market for online casinos. An operator that meets the written conditions can apply, and a player in Lithuania is meant to use an operator that holds that permission. The licence is the document that names who may take the bet and who hears a complaint if the casino does not pay.
The law on record is Lietuvos Respublikos azartinių lošimų įstatymas (Gaming Law No. IX-325).
The citation on record is IX-325 (adopted 2001-05-17).
The recorded status of online casinos in Lithuania is Legal.
The licensing model on record is Open licensing.
The row on this page shows the licence the casino holds. Read that cell before you create an account. A casino licensed in Lithuania takes a complaint to the authority named for this market. A casino licensed only abroad takes the same complaint to that foreign authority, even when the site loads on a Lithuanian phone.
The online age and the self-exclusion register in Lithuania
The minimum age for online casino play in Lithuania is 21.
Self-exclusion for licensed casinos in Lithuania is recorded as Gambling Supervision Service under the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Lithuania.
A national register is one signup that licensed operators are supposed to honour. It does not reach a site with no Lithuanian licence. Set a deposit limit while the account is still empty.
The phone adds a second clock. Crash games and instant games settle a round in seconds, and a session that feels short can still move a large stake. Use the casino's deposit limit and a time-out together with the phone's own screen-time control. The site's guide to responsible gaming explains how those tools sit next to each other.
Android casino apps when Google Play lists lotteries only
Google Play's allowance table lists Lithuania for lottery apps. It does not list casino apps. A casino that holds a Lithuanian licence still cannot place its real-money casino app in the store for this country. On Android the practical routes are the casino's own site in Chrome, or an APK file that the casino hosts on its own domain.
An APK is the package Android installs outside the store. Take it only from the casino's own domain. A file from a chat group or a mod page is a different product.
The browser is the safer route on a work phone or a shared phone, because it leaves no extra package on the device. The games are the same ones the casino serves to the app. Our guide to Android casino apps sets out the store rule, the APK checks, and the browser route in one place.
Euros, Revolut and the name on the account
The currency on record for Lithuania is Euro.
Revolut and Luminor Link appear on the payment bars because casinos open to Lithuania list them. Register with the same legal name as the Revolut or bank account. A mismatch is a common reason the withdrawal stops at the identity check, even when the deposit went through. SEPA is a bank transfer inside the euro area. It is slower than a wallet because the bank, not the casino app, moves the money.
A welcome offer is still the casino's contract, not the statute. Read the wagering multiple, the games that count, and the maximum cashout before you opt in. A phone screen hides those lines under a short button. Open the terms on the casino's site, in a full page, before the first deposit. The comparison of Android and iPhone casino apps shows how the same offer is presented in a store app, an APK, and a browser tab.
