What is EPIS and why do we check it?

At GoldenPalace, your safety and well-being always come first.
To protect players and ensure full compliance with Belgian law, we verify every player’s status through EPIS — the Excluded Persons Information System


What is EPIS?

EPIS is Belgium’s official national register of excluded players, managed by the Belgian Gaming Commission.
It lists individuals who:

  • Have voluntarily chosen to exclude themselves from gaming,

  • Have been restricted by a court or authority, or

  • Are temporarily banned from entering casinos, gaming halls, or online gaming sites.

This system ensures that people who need a break from gambling are automatically protected across all licensed gaming operators in Belgium — including GoldenPalace.


Why we check EPIS

By law, every licensed casino and betting site must consult EPIS before granting access to real-money games.
This protects vulnerable players, prevents underage gambling, and ensures responsible gaming for everyone.

When you log in, our system automatically checks — securely and instantly — whether your national registry number appears in the EPIS database.
If you’re listed, access is automatically blocked to respect your exclusion and to protect your well-being.


our privacy and protection

This verification is completely confidential and handled securely.
We never see why someone is on the list — only whether access is allowed or not.
GoldenPalace fully respects these protections, because your safety matters more than the game.


Responsible. Legal. Caring. Always Golden.
