The game catalogue
Zigzag operates outside the Belgian licensing system and therefore shows a wider catalogue than a B+ hall may: a broad slot selection, live tables and crypto payments. Without a licence, EPIS and the statutory deposit limit go too.
Typically Belgian are the dice games: tales of Sand, Coco Craze Dice, Dice Spinner, it is a format that runs almost nowhere else.
Licence and oversight
Zigzag operates without a Belgian licence. On the black list of more than 900 domains sits zigzag as well.
EPIS does not work here, and neither does the statutory ceiling. Anyone playing here has to police their own limit.
Signup, KYC and support
Opening an account follows a fixed pattern: name, date of birth and documents, before anything is paid out. An ID document and an address document will be requested.
Language cover is a lottery, and the regulator has no say in the outcome. Leave the transaction mails in your inbox; they are your only foothold if things go wrong.

Short answers to recurring questions
Through the Gaming Commission's EPIS system. One registration excludes you from every licensed operator, online and on-site. The register is not publicly searchable. Unlicensed sites are not connected to it.
No, Zigzag does not appear in the Belgian licence register. You can check this yourself in the regulator's register. Anyone wanting certainty looks the name up at the Gaming Commission.
Depositing with Bancontact works; the money comes back through your bank account. Always pay from an account in your own name. Keep the confirmation e-mail of every deposit.
21 — that has been the rule since the 2024 reform, National Lottery aside. The 2024 reform aligned every form of play. The rule applies online and on-site alike.
Check which games count: slots often 100%, table games sometimes 10% or nothing at all. Read the maximum cashout above all. Watch the maximum stake while clearing, too.
