What you play on
Stanjames runs without a Belgian licence and so faces no statutory limit on the game offering: thousands of slots, live dealers and newer formats. The flip side sits further down: no oversight, no EPIS and no statutory weekly limit.
Dice games are the Belgian hallmark: take It Or Not, Open The Pearl, Coco Craze Dice, those titles barely exist outside Belgium, which explains the gap with an international casino.
What the Gaming Commission says
Stanjames is missing from the Belgian white list. The regulator blocked stanjames; the list now counts 900+ domains.
EPIS does not work here, and neither does the statutory ceiling. Anyone playing here has to police their own limit.
Signup, KYC and support
The start is recognisable at every operator: name, date of birth and documents, before anything is paid out. An ID document and an address document will be requested. Depositing under a name other than the account holder's causes delay.
The desk answers in English, and no Belgian body arbitrates a dispute. Archive what you receive about deposits and withdrawals; that is what remains if a discussion ever arises.

The dice games are simply more fun than the standard slots.

Limits, age and EPIS
The Belgian legislator approaches player protection above the European average in strictness with concrete consequences for your account. On any licensed site the weekly limit defaults to €200.
Self-exclusion in Belgium is handled centrally, through EPIS: a single request is enough to stay out everywhere at once. Unlicensed sites are not connected to it. The bar has stood at 21 since 1 September 2024, lottery aside; the National Lottery is the exception at 18. It applies online and on-site.
Player questions
You must be 21. Younger is only allowed at the National Lottery. This is verified at registration. A falsified age costs you the whole balance at payout.
Yes. Bancontact and Bancontact Pay are the standard deposit methods; withdrawals go by bank transfer. The deposit shows on your account immediately. Turnaround depends mostly on the operator, not on Bancontact.
Not legal in the Belgian sense: Stanjames operates without a Gaming Commission licence. Do not take the site's own word for it. Status can change; re-check the list if in doubt.
A bonus is only worth something once you convert the wagering into euros. Without converting to euros a percentage says nothing. The terms usually sit at the bottom of the bonus page.
Yes, €200 per week per site — unless you set a lower cap yourself. A lower limit is active immediately. At unlicensed sites that protection does not exist.
