Land-based casinos

Uganda's land-based casino market is concentrated in Kampala and major tourist locations.

Institutions are licensed by the National Lottery and Gambling Board (NLGRB) and are required to confirm capital, origin of funds, equipment and software compliance, and connection to monitoring systems.

Inside the casino is a standard set: roulette, blackjack, baccarat, poker tables and machines; VIP lounges and loyalty programs are provided for regular players.

KYC/AML procedures, age control (18 +), limits and responsible play tools are practiced.

Payments and jackpots are subject to reporting, and transactions are subject to taxes and fees.

The main audience is local players and business travelers; infrastructure - hotel casinos with bars, live events and basic security.

Key risks of operators - compliance and transparency of payments; for guests - the choice of licensed sites and compliance with personal limits.
