The Games offered by the various game providers present on the Site have a redistribution rate specific to each game and identical on any legal or illegal sites offering these games to the public. Circus Belgium S.A., as the legal operator, wishes to increase the overall RTP of the Site by offering an additional redistribution related to activity on all the games offered on its Site, in order to meet the ratio legis of the law on gambling of 1999 which is the channeling of players.
9.2 Rules for the Granting of Coins
The rules for granting Coins are defined below.
A) 9.2.1 Directly by Playing
Coins are earned by the Player as they are placed on the Games. Their acquisition is based on a system where every X Euro wagered in a Game entitles the Player to 1 Coin.
For betting, a Player gets 1 Coin* each time he bets between $1 and $10, depending on the type of bet and the odds.
The minimum bet to win 1 Coin under the takeover of Paris is shown below:
Odds | Single | Combination |
---|---|---|
Between 1.40 and 1.80 | €10 - Extra Payout of 0.1% | €4 - Extra Payout of 0.25% |
Between 1.81 and 3.00 | €7 - Extra Payout of 0.14% | €3 - Extra Payout of 0.33% |
Between 3.01 and 7.50 | €3 - Extra Payout of 0.33% | €2 - Extra Payout of 0.5% |
More than 7.51 | €1.50 - Extra Payout of 0.66% | €1 - Extra Payout of 1% |
Circus reserves the right to multiply the number of Coins received on one or more specified Games, possibly during a specified period (e.g. Odds Booster and Coins Booster).
Some third-party gaming providers offer gambling tournaments on the Site. In these tournaments, the Player can win cash directly which can increase the Payout for the winning Player. The special conditions of these tournaments are available on .
*1 Coin has a value of 1 euro cent. This corresponds to an increase in the RTP of 0.1% (1/1000 = 0.1%) for a typical slot game. This mechanism therefore aims to increase Player Payout as each Coin is convertible to a value of 1 euro cent.
B) 9.2.2 Depending on the Player’s Status and Global Game Activity, through the (i) Wheel and (ii) Monthly Box.
(i) La Roue
An opportunity to turn the Wheel is granted each time a Player gets a higher Status. Depending on his Status, the Player may win a random number of Coins equivalent to X Euros within the following ranges;
• Copper: between 3 and 20 (average 7)
• Bronze: between 3 and 25 (average 9)
• Silver: between 5 and 50 (average 14)
• Gold: between 25 and 150 (average 68)
• Platinum: between 25 and 400 (average 123)
• Diamond: between 200 and 2,500 (average 740)
• Diamond*: between 400 and 5,000 (average 1.360)
• Diamond**: between 1,000 and 15.0000 (average 2.722)
• Diamond***: between 2,500 and 25,000 (average 10,000)
• Diamond****: between 7,500 and 50,000 (average 18,500)
For example, when a Player earns Copper status, they can earn up to 1000 Coins by participating in the Wheel. This is then equivalent to 0.2% additional gain redistribution. A Player can earn between 0.06% and 0.2% Payout.
(II) The Monthly Box
Every month, from 1 to 7, each Active Player will receive a Virtual Box. At the opening of this Box, the Player will discover the number of Coins obtained.
Boxes aim to increase the overall RTP of the Site according to Player Activity.
The ranges of the value of Coins contained in the Box and related to each Status are listed below;
• Blue: between 1 and 3 euros
• Copper: between 1 and 5 euros
• Bronze: between 1 and 6 euros
• Silver: between 1 and 7 euros
• Gold: between 1 and 20 euros
• Platinum: between 1 and 25 euros
• Diamond: between 1 and 100 euros
• Diamond*: between 1 and 150 euros
• Diamond**: between 1 and 200 euros
• Diamond***: between 1 and 500 euros
• Diamond****: between 1 and 1,000 euros
For example, a Copper Player can discover in his Box between X and X Coins. The RTP will rise by 0.01% and 0.2% depending on the level in the Copper Statute
9.3 The rules for converting Coins are defined below:
Coins Converter is the feature offered by Circus Belgium S.A. allowing Players to convert accumulated Coins and convert them into Euros based on 1 Coin = €0.01. The money can be withdrawn immediately by the Player.

10.2 Lack of interest
Any amount of money linked to a Player account will not be able to generate interest.
10.3 deposit limits
Two types of limits are available on the Site (a) the default deposit limit and (b) personal deposit limits. The most restrictive limit will apply to the Player.
A) Default deposit limit
Pursuant to the Royal Decree of 25 October 2018 on the operating procedures of games of chance operated by means of information society instruments and the Royal Decree of 19 June 2022 determining the consultation procedures of the Centrale desCrédits aux Individuals by the Gambling Commission and amending the provisions relating to the limitation of online games of chance, the Player is informed of the imposition of a weekly default deposit limit under the said Royal Decree, preventing him from depositing more than 200 euros per week into his Player Account on the Site. The Player has the option to remove the default deposit limit with the permission of the Gambling Commission. It is, however, advisable for the Player to determine his game limits on the basis of his financial situation and to always remain within the limits set by himself.
To remove the default limit, the Player must go to Player Account Settings or the Deposits page and request the removal of the default deposit limit.
Circus Belgium S.A. informs the Gaming Commission immediately and in electronic form.
Within 72 hours (three days) of receipt of the request, the Gaming Commission shall inform whether such a request can be approved. This information is obtained after an electronic request to the National Bank to verify whether the player is listed as in default in the Personal Credit Central’s file.
The increase cannot be granted to Players who are known to be in default in the file of the Centrale des Credits aux Individuals of the National Bank of Belgium. The refusal of the Commission will be notified by Circus Belgium S.A. to the Player.
The Player is also informed that Circus Belgium S.A. may be legally obliged to cancel the increase in the default deposit limit requested by the Player and initially applied following the notification by the Gambling Commission of the Player’s registration in the file of the Centrale desCrédits aux Individuals as being in default.
B) Personal deposit limits
As part of the awareness of responsible gambling and with a view to the protection of the Player by Circus Belgium S.A., the Player may at any time set more restrictive personal deposit limits for all Games in which he participates on the Site. In the event that the Player does not set a personal limit after removing the default limit, a limit of 2000€ per week will be imposed on the Player.
To do this, the Player goes to the settings of his Player Account where he has the possibility to set deposit limits for periods of 24 hours, 7 days or 1 month. A decrease in the Player's personal deposit limits will have immediate effect.
In the event of an increase in a personal deposit limit by the Player, the Player is informed and agrees without reservation that the Player may only play with the increased limit after 72 hours of such an increase. Then, the Player can decide to lower their personal deposit limit or reintroduce their default deposit limit by going to their Player Account settings.
10.4. Withdrawals
Subject to compliance with all the provisions of these General Conditions of Use (including authentication of the Player Account), Circus Belgium S.A. undertakes to execute at the Player’s first request any withdrawal of winnings, provided that the balance of the Player Account is positive and sufficient. The Player declares to be aware that all financial transactions are subject to the usual banking deadlines. Credit transfer cannot be made until the Player’s account is authenticated by Circus Belgium S.A.
The payment of any sum of money shall be executed by Circus Belgium S.A. only insofar as the Player is not liable for any sum to Circus Belgium S.A. and after checking the proper conduct of the Game, the absence of any cheating, abuse, fraud and any error of the Software or human resulting in an unjustified gain or loss for a Player.

However, Circus Belgium S.A. does not take any commission or fees of any kind on deposits or withdrawals regardless of the payment method used. On the other hand, Circus Belgium S.A. reserves the right to apply an administration fee of 15% on transactions (withdrawals and deposits) that would not be for the sole purpose of participation in the games in particular in the case of consecutive deposits and withdrawals without stakes or any misuse of the Player Account.
Depending on the payment method used, fees may be charged to the Player by their banking institution or payment provider. Circus Belgium S.A. can in no way be held responsible for these costs, the Player being obliged to inquire in advance with his financial institution or payment provider about any transaction fees that may be claimed.
The Player irrevocably and definitively waives to oppose or refuse any payment of amounts due to Circus Belgium S.A. In addition, it authorizes Circus Belgium S.A. to withdraw from its Player Account any sums it may have unduly received as a result of fraud or malfunction of the Site, Services or Games.
The Player agrees to indemnify Circus Belgium S.A. for any loss it may suffer in connection with payments, defaults in payment by the Player or misuse of its Player Account.
