Our verdict on BetFIRST Sports
Basic information
| Type | online sportsbook (F1+) |
| Oversight | Belgian Gaming Commission |
| Licence | F1+116764 |

The game catalogue
BetFIRST Sports does not know the Belgian limitation on the offering: thousands of slots, live dealers and newer formats. Without a licence, EPIS and the statutory deposit limit go too.
In the B+ halls dice games are the norm: take It Or Not, Infinity Dice, Gold Mine, the suppliers behind it — Air Dice, Gaming1 — work mainly for Belgium.
The legal side
BetFIRST Sports appears with F1+116764 on the regulator's white list. Such a licence is only possible in Belgium on top of a land-based one — the operator carries the licence.
That gives you an age check, EPIS and a limit that is active by default.
What is asked at registration
Signup asks the same steps everywhere: identity details that match, and a check on them. Expect an ID document plus proof of address.
A licence holder must provide Dutch- and French-language support. Hold on to the confirmations of every deposit; in a conflict those are the only pieces of evidence with weight.

Weekly limit, age bar and exclusion
Belgium regulates player protection more strictly than most of its neighbours which feeds straight into your play limit. Each site automatically applies a €200 weekly ceiling. Lowering it is immediate, raising it needs a check and a waiting period.
EPIS is the Gaming Commission's central exclusion system: a single request is enough to stay out everywhere at once. The entry point is the Gaming Commission. Casino, gaming hall and sports betting are 21-and-over since 1 September 2024; 18 still applies at the National Lottery alone. A trial account falls under it too.
FAQ
A bonus is only worth something once you convert the wagering into euros. The validity window is often shorter than you expect. Read the maximum cashout above all.
Through the Gaming Commission's EPIS system. One registration excludes you from every licensed operator, online and on-site. Physical venues will refuse you afterwards too. It is the strongest brake Belgium offers.
21 — that has been the rule since the 2024 reform, National Lottery aside. The rule applies online and on-site alike. Without valid ID you do not get through.
Not for the player. Belgium taxes the operator, not the winner. The operator remits the levy, not the player. At a foreign operator your tax position may differ.
€200 per week per site by default. Lowering it is immediate; raising it needs a check and a delay. The limit applies per site, not across all sites. Set it deliberately lower if you are unsure.
Bancontact is accepted almost everywhere for deposits, not for withdrawals. Keep the confirmation e-mail of every deposit. There is no route back to Bancontact — that goes via the bank.
