Registering at Dragon Casino: your account open in a few minutes

Registering at Dragon Casino is free, happens entirely online and needs no app, unless you choose itsme. That is in fact the first of the two routes on offer: the app passes on your identity in a single step. The second, the online form, suits anyone without the app or who would rather do without it.

Both lead to the same account, under the same rules. What differs is when you can play for real money: straight away with itsme, once your documents have been checked with the form. The reason is simple: a Belgian casino must have verified your identity before it accepts a single deposit. This guide covers both routes, what to have ready and what happens once your account exists.

Before you register: what you need

Three conditions apply to everyone. You must be 21 or over, the minimum age for gambling in Belgium since September 2024. You must also register under your own identity: playing with someone else’s details can lead to an administrative fine from the Belgian Gaming Commission. Finally, your name is checked against the EPIS register. Voluntary self-exclusion, a collective debt settlement or certain professions, such as police officer, put people on it, and anyone listed cannot open an account.

Nothing here is specific to Dragon Casino: the law requires these checks of every authorised online casino in Belgium. In practical terms, you need an email address and your phone. If you go for the form, keep your identity card to hand as well: you will be asked for your national register number and to photograph both sides of the card.

Signing up with itsme in 4 steps

This is the shortest route, and the one most players take.

1. Click Register.
2. Choose “Sign up with itsme”.
3. Enter your phone number or, on a computer, scan the QR code with your phone.
4. Open the app, check the details requested and confirm with your five-digit itsme code or your fingerprint.

The app shows which details Dragon Casino will receive (name, date of birth, address, national register number) and sends nothing without your consent. Because those details were already verified when you activated itsme, your identity and address are confirmed at once: your account is active and a first deposit is possible straight away. From then on, itsme also lets you log in, with no password to remember.

Registration on a mobile or a PC

On a phone, everything happens on the same device: once you pick the itsme option, the app opens by itself, you confirm, and you are sent back to Dragon Casino.

On a computer, the site displays a QR code. You scan it with the itsme app on your phone, confirm, and registration carries on on screen. The form works the same way on both; only the photo of your identity card is easier to take with a phone.

No itsme yet? Activate it first

The app is free and has more than 8 million users in Belgium. You need an up-to-date smartphone and a Belgian identity card. There are two ways to activate it: with your bank card and card reader, if your bank is an itsme partner, or from a computer with your identity card, its PIN and a card reader.

Once activated, it also works for online banking and public services, such as filing your tax return. If activation is not possible for you, the form does exactly the same job, just a little more slowly.

Registering with the online form

The form asks for your:

• first and last name;
• email address;
• password;
• date of birth;
• national register number;
• home address in Belgium.

You then send a photo of your identity card, front and back. A sharp image, taken flat and without glare, saves a needless back-and-forth. Our team checks the documents and lets you know as soon as your account is approved. Until then, you can browse the games and try them in demo mode, but you cannot deposit or stake yet.

The form is also your fallback if itsme lets you down, for instance an app that will not respond: you end up with the same account. For any questions along the way, the Dragon Casino help centre covers the most common cases.

Once you are registered: first deposit and first withdrawal

To play for real money, you can add funds to your player account by Bancontact or with a Visa or Mastercard debit card. By default, a cap of €200 per rolling seven-day period applies, as on every licensed Belgian site. You are free to choose a lower limit from your player account: a good habit from day one.

Your first withdrawal needs one last check, on the bank account your winnings will go to. itsme does not cover it: it happens when you make your request. After that, there are two options, the standard withdrawal from €10 and the instant payout from €50.

The last word

Itsme or the form, the result is the same: an account at our online casino with itsme, under licence B+3817, where dice, slots, roulette and live tables all run on the same balance.

And if you ever want to take a break, voluntary self-exclusion can also be requested with itsme, through the Belgian Gaming Commission’s website: in 2024, almost eight requests in ten went that way. Play for fun, with a budget set in advance.
