Since there are still a lot of questions surrounding online-casino games, here we’ll try to get some clarity by answering the most common questions about casino games.
Where can you play online-casino games in Switzerland?
Online-casinos in Switzerland were legalized on July 1, 2019. However, there are many requirements to be met before you can offer a legal online-casino in Switzerland. Legal online-casinos in Switzerland can only be operated by Swiss casinos that have a physical location in Switzerland and that have received special approval for an online-casino. All online-casino games in Switzerland also need to be approved and regularly checked.

Are online-casino games fair?
Online-casino games in legal Swiss online-casinos such as jackpots.ch are considered fair for a number of reasons. The Swiss Federal Gaming Board (SFGB) regulates the gambling industry in Switzerland and ensures that the games offered by online-casinos are fair and transparent. The casino games are checked and approved by the SFGB. Games not approved by the SFGB may not be offered by legal Swiss online-casinos. In addition, the online-casino games in Switzerland are regularly reviewed by independent certification bodies.
As mentioned above, all legal online-casinos in Switzerland must also be licensed for their business. This ensures that the strict standards for fair play, responsible gambling and data protection are adhered to.
In addition, Swiss online-casinos offer their players various resources to monitor their gambling habits to ensure a safe and responsible gambling experience. You can find more details on our responsible gambling overview page.
In summary, online-casino games are fair in Switzerland, as they are subject to strict regulation and supervision by the SFGB. The platform and the company behind it are also subjected to rigorous testing to ensure that no dubious providers in Switzerland are operating an online-casino.
Are casino games a matter of luck?
Casino games are often seen as purely luck-based. In reality, however, luck is only part of the equation. Although luck plays a role in determining the outcome of casino games, many casino games also require skill.
In games like blackjack or poker, players have to make strategic decisions and can use their knowledge of the game to increase their chances of winning. In these games, players who know the rules and strategies have a better chance of winning than those who rely only on their luck. There are also different strategies in roulette that aim to increase your chances of winning or minimize your losses.
Slot machines are an exception to this. In this case, the player no longer has any influence on the result after clicking the spin button. In other words, slot machines are based purely on luck.
In summary, luck plays a role in table games, but it is not the only factor: skill, knowledge and strategy also play an important role in deciding the outcome. With slot machines, on the other hand, you rely entirely on Fortuna and have no control over the outcome of the game yourself.
Which casino games have the best chances of winning?
You can easily determine your chances of winning in the online-casino using the Return to Player (RTP). This number indicates the percentage of the game bets in a game that are returned to the player. Games with a high RTP are therefore more lucrative for the player, as more of the money wagered goes back to the player.
Most of the time, table games have the better RTP than slot machines. So if you play roulette, blackjack or baccarat, you have a better chance of winning than on slot machines. Keep in mind, however, that games like blackjack depend heavily on your strategy: if you play according to the best blackjack strategy, you can significantly increase your chances. However, if you prefer to play according to your gut rather than math, your chances of winning will decrease.
For the RTP, however, it is important to note that this number is an average value and will only be at this level over an infinite number of rounds. In the short term, both higher and smaller dividends are possible. At the end of the day, casino games are still a matter of luck: even in a game with a low RTP, you might score big wins in a short amount of time.
In legal Swiss online-casinos, the RTP is always below 100%. This shows that even if you have a lucky streak over the short term and make good profits, the bank always wins over the long term. So even with a good RTP, caution is still required.
Can I play online-casino games for free?
Of course! We think everyone should be able to play casino games for free. That’s why you can play most of our casino games for free in demo mode at jackpots.ch. Simply open a game while you’re not logged in and you’ll start playing in demo mode for free. Unfortunately, not all of our games are available in demo mode. However, it should still be enough to get a feel for the games or perfect your strategy.
The downside? Of course, you cannot win real money as long as you play for free. If you want to win real money with the casino games, you must first log in or create a free player profile with us.
Whether for free or for real money: in any case, we wish you lots of fun and, of course, good luck!
