Land-based casinos

The ground scene in the CAR is compact and concentrated in the capital Bangui: instead of large resorts, small playrooms and halls at hotels/entertainment centers prevail.

The typical product is electronic roulette, video slots/VLT, several tables for blackjack or poker in the evening hours; mini VIP zones are possible for regular customers.

Audience - residents of the capital, business guests and expats; peak attendance is evenings and weekends.

Payments are mainly cash, but mobile wallets for deposits/payments are gaining momentum.

Key challenges are limited travel infrastructure, energy savings, security and personnel shortages.

In response, operators integrate with the hotel service ("accommodation + game" packages), strengthen the loyalty service and responsibility (clear limits, age verification), and also test the "hybrid" roles of halls as points for issuing winnings and supporting online accounts.
