Payment methods for operators

Payment route to investigate: Debit cards; authorised local online banking/ePay options

Cards are the defensible baseline; ePay/EasyPay and transfers require a gambling-specific merchant agreement and payout check.

Preliminary option only. Market rules, customer usage and provider support require further verification.

Sources: European Central Bank: SPACE 2024 payments by country

Research reviewed 24 October 2026. Consumer popularity does not establish casino acceptance. Verify the intended markets, casino product, contracting entity, funding rules, deposits, payouts, settlement and reserves with each payment provider.

The market

Bulgaria is a regulated market overseen by NRA. Online gross gaming revenue is USD 600m for 2026, of which USD 380m is licensed. Roughly 68% of play sits with licensed operators.

Stable framework.

This is the measured profile. A full research write-up, with the licensing route, the advertising rules, the player limits and cited sources, is not written for Bulgaria yet. The figures above come from the market dataset rather than from a per-country source review, so treat them as a screen rather than as a basis for a launch decision.

For operators planning next steps

Turning market research into a launch decision in Bulgaria?

Market size and regulatory status are inputs, not a licence to operate. A launch plan needs local eligibility, payments, economics, player protection and ownership agreed first.
