Frequently asked

What we're asked the most

Is online sports betting legal in France?

Yes, provided you bet with an operator holding a valid license issued by the Autorité Nationale des Jeux (ANJ). Any unlicensed operator targeting the French market is acting outside the legal framework.

How can I verify that an ANJ license is authentic?

The most reliable way is to check the official list of licensed operators published directly by the ANJ, available on anj.fr. Every license number referenced in this editorial space can be verified there.

What is the minimum legal age to bet?

You must be at least 18 years old. Age and identity verification is a legal obligation imposed on every licensed operator before any account can be opened.

Are sports betting winnings taxable?

The applicable tax regime depends on your personal situation and can change over time. We recommend consulting a professional or official tax administration sources for an up-to-date answer.

What is the difference between pari-mutuel and fixed-odds betting?

In pari-mutuel betting, losing stakes are redistributed among winners according to a distribution calculation, with the final odds known only at closing. In fixed-odds betting, the payout is locked in at the moment of the stake, based on the odds offered by the operator.

How does this editorial space select the operators it features?

We only feature operators holding an active ANJ license for sports betting in France. The presentation remains independent of any promotional ranking and focuses on factual, verifiable information.

Does this website accept stakes or manage player accounts?

No. This is an editorial information and comparison space. All stakes, deposits, and account management take place exclusively with the licensed operator itself, on its own space.

What should I do if I feel I have lost control over my betting habits?

Free, confidential support is available, including Joueurs Info Service (09 74 75 13 13) and the self-exclusion tools listed by the ANJ. See our Guide page for more details.

How does the national self-exclusion system work?

Anyone can request to be placed on the national self-exclusion register, which blocks the opening or use of accounts with all licensed operators in France, for a fixed or indefinite period.

Is this content kept up to date?

Information relating to licenses is reviewed periodically. If in doubt, the official ANJ source always takes precedence and should be consulted first.
