Short answerFact-checked 22 Sept 2026
  • Stake’s terms, read 22 September 2026, say the site is owned and operated by Medium Rare N.V., a Curaçao company with registration number 145353. The same number appears against the company’s licence in the CGA register.
  • The CGA register edition dated 21 September 2026 lists licence OGL/2024/1451/0918 as “Assessment in progress”, with a printed expiry date of 9 June 2026. That is not unusual there: 276 of its 281 entries with that status had a printed date in the past.
  • Neither the licence nor Medium Rare N.V. is in the CGA enforcement register dated 14 September 2026. Stake does not appear in Anjouan’s register either: on 21 September 2026 no entry listed a stake domain.

Stake's terms say the site is "owned and operated by Medium Rare N.V., registration number: 145353, registered address: Seru Loraweg 17 B, Curaçao." The Curaçao Gaming Authority's register lists a licence for that company, OGL/2024/1451/0918, with the status "Assessment in progress" and a printed expiry date of 9 June 2026. This page sets out what each public document says, with the date we read it. It is a record, not a rating: BullsRank has not scored Stake, and the Stake profile says so.0102

Who operates Stake

Medium Rare N.V., a Curaçao company with registration number 145353. That is what Stake's own terms state, read on 22 September 2026, and the same registration number appears against the company's licence in the regulator's register. The terms give the registered address as Seru Loraweg 17 B, Curaçao.0102

We can't tell you who owns Medium Rare N.V. Neither the terms nor the register names shareholders or directors, and we don't publish ownership claims we can't trace to a document. Our guide to who owns an online casino explains why the operating company and the owner are different questions.

What the Curaçao register prints

The register edition dated 21 September 2026 carries one row for the company:02

  • Licence: OGL/2024/1451/0918

  • Licensee: Medium Rare N.V., B2C, company registration 145353

  • Issued: 9 December 2025

  • Expires: 9 June 2026

  • Status: Assessment in progress

The row is unchanged across every edition we read from 3 September to 21 September 2026. The printed expiry date passed more than three months before our read. That is not unusual in this register: on 21 September, 276 of the 281 entries marked "Assessment in progress" had a printed date in the past, and the regulator's own page says the overviews "do not guarantee the current validity of the licenses". What the status means for a specific licence is a question for the regulator, and we don't guess at it. Our Curaçao licence check guide explains how the register and the certificate pages fit together.02

The CGA's enforcement register, dated 14 September 2026, does not list OGL/2024/1451/0918 or Medium Rare N.V.02

What we could not read

  • The certificate page. Curaçao issues a certificate per domain at cert.cga.cw. We hold no certificate link for stake.com and haven't read one, so we can't say what it prints for the domain.

  • The site itself. From the reader we use for this page, stake.com and its terms page returned 403 on 22 September 2026. The terms quoted above were read from a different location on the same day. Many operators block traffic by country; a block says nothing about licensing.

  • Anjouan. Stake does not appear in Anjouan's register: no entry lists a stake domain, on 21 September 2026.

What the terms say about verification and withdrawals

Stake's terms provide for identity verification (KYC), read 25 July 2026. Its anti-money-laundering policy, read 30 July 2026, states no processing window for withdrawals and describes an account-level verification threshold without naming the amount. Stake's help centre, read 11 October 2026, gives up to 3 business days for local-currency withdrawals and no time for crypto, and BullsRank has not measured Stake's payout times. Our guide to Stake withdrawals sets out what the help centre and terms say, and our guide to how crypto casino withdrawals work covers what usually decides the time.0104

How to check this yourself

  1. Open Stake's terms and find the operating company and registration number.

  2. Open the latest Curaçao register PDF from cga.cw and search for the licence number or the company name. Read the status and the expiry date together.

  3. If the site shows a licence seal, follow it to cert.cga.cw and check that the certificate names the domain you're on.

  4. Check the enforcement register on the same page.

  5. Note the date. The register changes in editions, and the profile above shows the date of every fact.

What we are not saying

We are not saying Stake is licensed or unlicensed, safe or unsafe. We are reporting what its terms and the regulator's documents printed on the dates given. This page changes when any of them does; each change carries its date. We have not asked Stake or the CGA for comment; a reply goes here with its date.
