Offshore Curacao casino with a thin public record - and both its markets outlaw it
Not available lawfully hereIs RamenBet legal in Japan?
No. Real-money gambling is banned in Japan. Under the Penal Code gambling offences and the revised Basic Law on Measures against Addiction, in force since the revised law took effect in September 2025, RamenBet cannot lawfully offer you a welcome bonus here, and you cannot lawfully claim one.
Only public pari-mutuel sports and lotteries are legal in Japan; offshore online casinos are not. Online casino-related arrests hit a record 196 in 2025, up more than 38% on 2024. The revised law also criminalises intermediary 'reach' sites and social media promotion that funnel players to offshore casinos, and the first arrests over an affiliate site followed in September 2025. source
Any RamenBet bonus you see advertised for Japan 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 Japan regulator can help you recover funds. We therefore show no offer and no sign-up link on this page.

Pros
- Operates under a named company (Pomadorro N.V.) rather than anonymously
- Listed on mainstream player-complaint databases, so a dispute route of sorts exists
Cons
- Both markets it appears in - Turkey and Japan - prohibit offshore online casinos
- Turkey fines individual players, and banks must now warn that funding illegal gambling is a criminal offence
- Offshore Curacao licence only, with no licence in either market served
- Almost no independent information about the operator, its history or its payout record
- The withdrawn Turkish bonus carried 30x wagering on deposit plus bonus - demanding even had it been claimable
- Curacao's 2026 regime offers weak assurance: confidential complaint handling, no published operator statistics, no visible enforcement, regulator board resignations in late 2025
Our verdict
There is very little to say in RamenBet's favour and not much evidence to say anything else either, which is part of the problem. It is an offshore casino run by Pomadorro N.V. on a Curacao licence, with no meaningful public record of who is behind it or how it treats players - and where coverage is this thin, a clean complaint history means nothing. The decisive issue is simpler than reputation. Both markets we hold data for outlaw it: Turkey confines betting to state operators and fines individual players, with banks now instructed to treat funding illegal gambling as a criminal matter, and Japan bans offshore casinos outright. We removed its Turkish welcome bonus because no Turkish player can lawfully claim it. Add a Curacao regime that in 2026 publishes no enforcement record and handles complaints confidentially, and there is no version of this we would recommend.
How we rated it
Casino & games (30%)5
A functioning casino listed on mainstream complaint databases, but we found no independent assessment of its game selection or providers to judge it on.
Bonuses & value (20%)3
The tiered Turkish offer looked substantial on paper - up to EUR 2,000 at the top tier - but carried 30x wagering on deposit plus bonus, and it is not lawfully claimable in Turkey at all. We withdrew it.
Payments & payouts (25%)3
No independent payout evidence exists, and in both its markets the payment path runs against active state enforcement - Turkish banks must now warn customers that funding illegal gambling is a criminal offence.
Trust & licensing (25%)3
Offshore Curacao only, no licence in either market it serves, minimal public information about the operator, and a Curacao regime that in 2026 offers markedly less assurance than its reputation suggests - confidential complaint handling, no published operator statistics, no visible enforcement, and a 2025 regulator board crisis.

18+. Offshore Curacao licence only. Private online gambling is illegal in Turkey (players face fines) and offshore online casinos are illegal in Japan. This page is informational and not an invitation to bet where doing so is unlawful.
How we verified this
RamenBet is operated by Pomadorro N.V. on an offshore Curacao licence. It holds no licence in Turkey or Japan, the two markets it appears in here, and both prohibit it - Turkey fines individual participants and Japan treats offshore online casinos as illegal. Independent information about this operator is scarce; absence of complaints is not evidence of good conduct where there is barely any coverage at all.

About RamenBet
RamenBet is an offshore online casino run by Pomadorro N.V. on a Curacao licence. There is remarkably little public information about it: beyond the operating company name and a listing on complaint databases, we could not establish when it launched, who stands behind Pomadorro N.V., or how reliably it pays. That thinness is itself the finding - with so little coverage, the absence of complaints tells you nothing. What is clear is the legal position in the two markets where it appears in our data, and both are prohibitive. Turkey permits betting only through state operators and fines individual participants who gamble elsewhere, with banks now obliged to warn customers that funding illegal gambling is a criminal offence. Japan treats offshore online casinos as illegal outright. We withdrew RamenBet's Turkish welcome offer for that reason.
RamenBet FAQ
Can I use RamenBet from Turkey?
Not lawfully. Turkey permits betting only through state operators - Iddaa, Milli Piyango and the Turkish Jockey Club - and individual participants in illegal gambling face fines. The ICTA blocked over 233,000 sites in 2024, and since early 2026 Turkish banks must notify account holders that facilitating payments for illegal gambling is a criminal offence. We withdrew RamenBet's Turkish offer for that reason.
What about Japan?
Also prohibited. Japan allows only public pari-mutuel sports betting and lotteries; offshore online casinos are illegal, and online casino-related arrests hit a record 196 in 2025.
Who owns RamenBet?
It is operated by Pomadorro N.V. under Curacao licensing. We could not establish anything further about the company or the people behind it, which is itself worth weighing.
Is a Curacao licence reassuring?
Less than it sounds in 2026. Curacao replaced its old framework with the LOK regime in December 2024, but most operators are still converting provisional licences, there is no public record of enforcement actions, complaint handling under CADRE is confidential with no operator-level statistics published, and the regulator suffered board resignations in late 2025.
