Swiss casinos operate under federal concessions under the supervision of ESBK and are part of the tourist infrastructure of large cities and resorts (Zurich, Basel, Bern, Lugano, St. Moritz, Montreux, Interlaken, etc.).
The venues include European roulette, blackjack, baccarat/punto banco, poker (cash/tournaments) and extensive slot machine halls; restaurants, shows and events are available.
Entry - from the age of 18 with mandatory verification of identity; there is an inter-case system of exceptions (self-exclusion and prohibitions on socially responsible grounds), as well as KYC/AML procedures and monitoring of risk behavior.
Non-cash payments and CHF are the standard, dress-code is more often smart casual.
Competition comes from the quality of service, atmosphere and event calendar with consistently strict compliance.
