Rogue operators are hardly likely to splash the cash needed to be labelled as trustworthy. Only when all boxes have been ticked (and fees paid) will an online casino be issued with a gambling license. Not only that, the license applicant must put down “collateral” as an assurance to abide by the terms of their license agreement. Operators in Slovakia are required to pay huge fees to obtain licenses, substantial fees in fact and some of those fees are typically the highest in the EU with €2m payable if an operator offers slot machines, video bingo terminals and the like. Then in 2019, Act No.30/2019 was implemented, purely to revise previous laws while demonopolizing online gambling to open up to foreign operators. Thirteen years later, the Gambling Act of 2002 was introduced, the first piece of legislation that incorporated all aspects of gambling. After the fall of the Soviet Union in 1992, gambling in Slovakia under Act No.30/19 On Gambling and On Amendments to Certain Laws became legal, whether that be online or offline.
