Kroon Casino is not currently licensed by the gaming authority. At the time of this review, the website does not allow Dutch players. This review is for information purposes only, as the website is not open to Dutch players.
Kroon Casino cannot be played at the moment. It is uncertain whether the site will receive a licence from the Dutch government and become one of the official online casinos in the country. Meanwhile, Kroon - also known as betsson - is trying to get a Dutch licence. Dutch entrepreneurs started Kroon Casino in 2009. Alongside Oranje Casino, it is one of the most popular online casinos in the Netherlands.
Kroon Casino's website was launched in 2010. The casino is based in Malta and focuses on Dutch players. The site has lots of orange and, of course, the Dutch flag and language.f
The casino offers a wide range of games; they include live casino games, slot machines and video slots. They also offer live roulette, live blackjack and Live Punto Banco in their live casino.
Kroon Casino's live casino is successful because the entire casino is Dutch-speaking. Think dealers, croupiers and customer service. In addition, many of Kroon Casino's employees are from the Netherlands.
Kroon Casino was closed for reasons set out in a press release.
The Netherlands bans online gambling; this will change in 2021. On 1 October that year, the Kansspelautoriteit, or Ksa, will issue the first licences for online casinos.
In 2014, Swedish listed gambling company Betsson made a $144 million bid for Kroon Casino and Oranje Casino. Despite violating Dutch law, both offers were accepted. This was because the Kansspelautoriteit found the legislation objectionable. However, the offers were more or less tolerated for years.
