MGA casinos for Finnish players – MGA kasinot 2026

MGA casinos are a tax-free option for Finnish players: winnings from a casino licensed in an EU/EEA state are tax-free in Finland, according to Vero.fi. MGA stands for Malta Gaming Authority, Malta’s gambling regulator, and Malta is an EU member state.

That tax treatment is a reason Finnish players choose these casinos and search for 'MGA kasinot'. This page is the English version of our Finnish front page, with the same focus on licence details and the terms behind each offer.

The list starts with a licence check. Every casino’s licence number is checked in the MGA licensee register. Bonus, wagering and withdrawal figures then come from that casino’s own terms, with a check date so you can see when the information was checked.

The bonus figure is only part of the comparison. Wagering requirements and withdrawal terms belong alongside it, rather than being left out of the picture.

How to read an MGA licence number

An MGA licence number is easier to read once you separate its parts. Take MGA/B2C/233/2013: B2C means an operator licence for a casino selling to players, 233 is the serial number, and 2013 is the year the licence was granted.

The company name matters just as much as the number. One company can run several casino brands under a single licence, so different casino names do not necessarily mean different licence holders.

On our list, L.C.S Limited holds MGA/B2C/233/2013 and runs three brands: BetBay, KudosBet and RoyalRook. Those three names sit under the same company and licence.

To check a casino yourself, find the licence number and company name in its footer. Then search for that company in the MGA licensee register and confirm that the licence status is active. Match both the company name and the number rather than relying on the casino brand alone. The number tells you how the licence is identified; the register lets you confirm its current status.

Are MGA casino winnings tax-free in Finland?

For players resident in Finland, winnings from an MGA-licensed casino are tax-free. The Finnish Tax Administration, Vero.fi, states that gambling winnings are tax-free when the gambling is provided by an operator licensed in an EU or EEA state.

Malta has been an EU member since 2004, so an MGA licence qualifies. Put that into a simple example: if you win €1,000 at an MGA casino, that means €1,000 in your pocket. There is no Finnish tax to deduct from that win.

The distinction is where the operator is licensed. A licence from outside the EEA does not qualify for the same tax treatment. Winnings from operators licensed in Curaçao, Anjouan or Kahnawake are taxable income in Finland, rather than tax-free winnings.

So, when looking at an online casino’s licence, MGA is a clear answer on this point for Finnish residents. An MGA-licensed operator falls within the EU/EEA rule described by Vero.fi; an operator licensed outside the EEA does not. That is the key difference for the tax treatment of your winnings.

Bonuses and wagering at Malta casinos

In everyday iGaming life in Malta, I spend plenty of time looking past bonus headlines to the terms underneath. The wagering calculation is usually where I start.

BetBay, KudosBet and RoyalRook offer 250% up to €4,000 plus 4,000 free spins over three deposits. That is the combined offer, not the first-deposit percentage. You have 30 days, and the minimum deposit is €20.

The first-deposit offer is 150% up to €2,000, with 40x wagering, 30 days and a €20 minimum deposit.

The maximum bet with bonus money is €5 at every casino listed here. For me, the useful comparison is the whole package: the first-deposit percentage, the wagering amount and the time allowed, rather than the biggest number in the headline.

Payments and withdrawals

Deposits and withdrawals at these MGA casinos follow a fairly consistent pattern, though the payment methods and limits differ between brands. Visa and Mastercard are available at most of them, but not at BetBay, KudosBet or RoyalRook, which use MiFinity and bank transfer for withdrawals.

Bank transfer is available at nearly all of the listed casinos. Trustly, Brite and Zimpler are not offered.

Withdrawals are processed within 72 hours. L.C.S Limited brands allow €5,000 per day and €25,000 per month.

Malta: the iGaming island

Why are so many online casinos based in Malta? The island gave the industry an early framework. Malta was the first EU member state to adopt dedicated remote gaming rules, with the Remote Gaming Regulations of 2004 arriving in the same year it joined the EU. The current Gaming Act followed in 2018, introducing the B2C/B2B licence structure.

Today, hundreds of gaming companies and many game studios operate on the island. But the number of casino names does not tell you how many companies sit behind them. That is why we read the list company first, rather than treating every casino name as a separate business.

Noora Aaltonen, who writes this site, lives in Sliema, where the gaming industry is part of the neighbourhood. The full story is in our Finnish guide 'Malta pelisaarena'.
