Local rules, payments and the best sites for each need
Law, regulator, payments and taxes
Online gambling is legal in Ireland. Operators have historically held Revenue remote licences, and the Gambling Regulation Act 2024 created a new regulator, the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland (GRAI), which is phasing in its own licensing and advertising rules through 2025 and 2026. Most of the casinos Irish players use are UK- or Malta-licensed brands that also serve Ireland, and that will need GRAI licences as the new regime takes effect.
Oversight sits with the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland (GRAI). Verify any licence claim against the regulator's own register before you deposit.
Revolut is the payment method Irish players ask about most, and it works at almost every casino as a Visa or Mastercard debit payment, often with Apple Pay on top. PayPal is widely accepted, bank transfer is slower, and Paysafecard suits players who want to prepay. The 2024 Act provides for a ban on credit card gambling; debit cards are unaffected.
Gambling winnings are not taxed for players in Ireland; operators pay betting duty instead.
Horse racing dominates Irish betting, with Cheltenham the biggest week of the year, followed by GAA, Premier League football and rugby. Paddy Power, bet365 and Betfair have the deepest Irish racing and GAA markets.
Ireland's rules are changing under the GRAI. We update these pages as licences are issued and advertising guidance is published; check the regulator for the current position.
