Club House Casino License — Curacao GCB OGL/2023/174/0082
License Details
Club House Casino operates under Curaçao Gaming Control Board licence number OGL/2023/174/0082, issued directly to Dama N.V., the corporate operator behind the brand. The licence is a direct master licence issued under the Curaçao Landsverordening op de kansspelen framework as reformed in 2024, rather than a sublicence granted through a legacy master licence holder. Direct GCB oversight brings the operator into a single-tier regulatory relationship with the Curaçao regulator.
The licence covers online casino games, live dealer content, and associated ancillary services, and it authorises the operator to accept players from jurisdictions not on the operator’s own prohibited list. Licence conditions include capital adequacy, segregated player fund handling, responsible gambling tooling, complaint handling, and periodic compliance reporting to the GCB. Renewal is required annually against evidence of continued compliance.
Curaçao GCB — Regulator Overview
The Curaçao Gaming Control Board took over direct supervision of online gambling licensing under the 2024 framework, moving away from the previous master licence and sublicence structure that had drawn criticism for uneven oversight. Under the reformed model, every operator holds a direct licence from the GCB and answers to the regulator for compliance failures, player complaints, and financial obligations.
Player complaint routes run through the GCB’s dedicated portal, which accepts submissions in English and processes them in a documented timeline. The regulator publishes annual reports summarising enforcement activity, licence status changes, and industry-wide compliance themes. The GCB is a member of the International Association of Gaming Regulators.
Dama N.V. — Operator Profile
Dama N.V. is registered in Curaçao and holds the corporate licence under which Club House Casino operates. The registered office is Julianaplein 36, Willemstad, Curaçao. Dama N.V. operates a portfolio of gambling brands under separate marketing identities, sharing back-office infrastructure, compliance processes, and player protection tooling across the group.
The operator has held Curaçao licensing since before the 2024 framework transition and moved to the direct master licence structure during the transition window. The compliance record covers routine reporting obligations and complaint handling with the GCB, and no material enforcement action affecting the current licence is on the public regulator record at the time of writing.
Legal Status in Australia
Club House Casino is an offshore operator that has not sought Australian licensing under state or territory gambling authorities. The Interactive Gambling Act 2001 sets the federal framework for online gambling directed at Australian residents, and the Australian Communications and Media Authority maintains a register of prohibited services that operate in breach of the Act. The Act primarily addresses operators and advertising, with limited direct effect on individual players.
Player-side legal exposure for accessing an offshore online casino from Australia is limited under current legislation, though the position varies by state and territory. Club House Casino is not ACMA whitelisted and does not hold licensing from any Australian state authority. Australian players who choose to open an account do so under Curaçao regulatory protection and accept that the operator does not answer to Australian regulators.
How to Verify the License
The Curaçao GCB maintains an online register at gamingcontrolcuracao.org where the public may search for licensed operators and confirm the current status of a specific licence number. Entering OGL/2023/174/0082 into the register returns the licensee name, licence status, and issue date, providing independent confirmation.
Club House Casino embeds the licence certificate directly on the site footer, with a clickable link that opens the GCB verification page. Cross-checking the operator name shown on the register against the corporate name displayed in the site’s terms and conditions confirms the alignment between the licence holder and the brand.
Player Protection Standards
Licence conditions require the operator to hold player funds in a segregated trust account separate from operational capital, ensuring that account balances remain available to players in the event of operator insolvency. The segregation is audited periodically by the GCB.
Responsible gambling tooling is mandated at a minimum level covering deposit limits, session limits, self-exclusion, and reality check pop-ups. Dispute pathways run internally first, then to the GCB, and licence terms require the operator to co-operate with regulator investigations promptly.
