Land-based casinos
Namibia's land-based casino market is compact and concentrated in tourist and business hubs - at hotels, congress and resort complexes in the capital and on the coast.
The typical format is a "resort casino": a floor of video slots and electronic roulettes, several tables (roulette, blackjack, poker variations), a bar/restaurant and small VIP areas.
The customer base is mixed: local guests, business traffic and tourists of the safari season.
Operators operate under individual licenses with mandatory KYC, 18 + threshold, RG tools (informing, self-exclusion) and strict AML/CFT procedures; equipment is undergoing technical certification.
Cash payment prevails in payments, cards and local e-wallets are used pointwise.
Revenue seasonality correlates with tourist peaks; sustainability is ensured by slot park renewal, tournaments/promotions and partnerships with hotels and events.
