India-facing variant of the unlicensed Betpanda crypto casino - its corporate group's real licence covers only a different brand
Not available lawfully hereIs Bettpanda legal in India?
No. Real-money gambling is banned in India. Under the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act 2025 (PROGA), in force since 1 October 2025, Bettpanda cannot lawfully offer you a welcome bonus here, and you cannot lawfully claim one.
PROGA bans all real-money gaming nationwide and criminalises its operation, promotion and financial facilitation. Banks, UPI and card networks are barred from processing money-gaming transactions, and by 28 March 2026 the government had blocked or actioned 8,376 betting and gambling URLs. source
Any Bettpanda bonus you see advertised for India is offered from an offshore site operating against local law. Your payments can be blocked, your account can vanish with a mirror domain, and no India regulator can help you recover funds. We therefore show no offer and no sign-up link on this page.

Pros
- Some reviewers report legitimately instant withdrawals
- A specific, sizeable India welcome offer (100% up to 1 BTC + 15% cashback)
Cons
- No licence actually covers this brand - its Costa Rican registration carries no gaming regulator, and the group's real Anjouan licence belongs to a different brand
- Below-average 5.4 Casino.guru rating; explicitly operates without an official gambling licence
- Documented complaints of withdrawals canceled and accounts locked without explanation
- Account closures alleging Terms and Conditions violations after withdrawal requests, with confiscated winnings reported
Our verdict
Bettpanda is the India-facing version of the Betpanda crypto casino brand, and the same serious concern applies here directly: no licence actually covers this operator. Its Costa Rican registration carries no gaming regulator, and its corporate group's real Anjouan licence is registered only to a separate brand, Punkz - leaving Bettpanda players with no regulator or dispute body to appeal to. Casino.guru gives it a below-average 5.4 rating and explicitly states it operates without an official gambling licence. Documented complaints describe withdrawals being canceled with accounts locked and no explanation, funds blocked citing routine security checks, and accounts closed alleging Terms and Conditions violations specifically after a withdrawal request - with confiscated winnings reported in some cases. Some reviewers do report legitimately instant withdrawals, so this isn't universally bad, but the combination of no real licence and a specific, recurring confiscation-adjacent complaint pattern is serious. Despite the sizeable India-specific bonus offer, we'd recommend strong caution with Bettpanda and would not deposit more than you could afford to lose entirely.
How we rated it
Bonuses & value (18%)5
A specific India welcome offer exists (100% up to 1 BTC + 15% cashback), though value is undermined by documented withdrawal-blocking complaints.
Sportsbook & casino (36%)4.5
A crypto-anonymous casino and sportsbook; some reviewers praise a wide variety of sports and instant withdrawals, though specific catalogue breadth is not independently confirmed.
Support & reliability (18%)1.5
A below-average 5.4 Casino.guru rating. Documented complaints describe withdrawals canceled and accounts locked without explanation, funds blocked citing routine security checks, and account closures alleging Terms and Conditions violations after a withdrawal request - though some reviewers do report instant withdrawals.
Trust & licensing (27%)1
No licence actually covers this brand: its operator (Star Bright Media S.R.L.) is only registered in Costa Rica, which has no gaming regulator, and the group's real Anjouan licence is registered exclusively to its separate Punkz brand. Casino.guru explicitly states it operates without an official gambling licence.

How we verified this
Ownership (Star Bright Media S.R.L.) and the licence gap (Anjouan licence covers only the separate Punkz brand, not Betpanda/Bettpanda) are per an independent operator-registry analysis, consistent with the earlier betpanda.json research. Casino.guru's below-average 5.4 rating and no-licence finding, and the Trustpilot/AskGamblers withdrawal-cancellation and account-closure complaints, are read directly from those platforms.

About Bettpanda
Bettpanda is the India-facing variant of the Betpanda crypto casino brand, whose own terms name Star Bright Media S.R.L., a Costa Rica-registered company, as the service provider. As with the broader Betpanda brand, we want to be direct about a real licensing gap: Costa Rica supplies only a corporate registration and has no gaming regulator, and while the same corporate group does hold a genuine Anjouan B2C licence, that licence's public register lists only a separate brand, Punkz (punkz.casino, casinopunkz.io) - not Betpanda or Bettpanda. This means players are contracting with an unlicensed company with no regulator to appeal to. Casino.guru rates it a below-average 5.4 and explicitly states the casino operates without an official gambling licence. Documented complaints describe withdrawals being canceled and accounts locked without explanation, funds blocked citing routine security checks, and accounts closed alleging Terms and Conditions violations specifically after a withdrawal request was made - with confiscated winnings reported in some cases. Some reviewers do describe legitimately instant withdrawals, making this a genuinely mixed but structurally unlicensed operation. For the Indian market specifically, Bettpanda advertises a welcome offer of 100% up to 1 BTC plus 15% cashback.
