In short, from the documents

Which casinos on the register are like Stake?

Eleven operators on the register hold a Curacao licence found in the authority's own register, as Stake does. Five of them share Stake's discretionary KYC trigger, three commit to a withdrawal timeframe that Stake's terms do not, and one licence is recorded as Expired.

Eleven crypto casinos on this register hold a licence that the Curacao Gaming Authority's own register records, the same regulator as Stake. Five of them share Stake's discretionary KYC clause, three commit in their terms to a withdrawal timeframe that Stake's terms leave out, and one, Rollbit, is recorded by the authority as Expired.

That is what "sites like Stake" looks like when the comparison is made on documents instead of on bonuses or lobby screenshots. Nothing here is a ranking. The order of the table is alphabetical.

What does Stake's record look like?

Four facts define it on the Stake entry. The licence, OGL/2024/1451/0918 held by Medium Rare N.V., appears in the Curacao registry of 31 August 2026 with a status of "Assessment in progress". Stake's currency page documents 21 coins against a claim of over twenty. The anti-money-laundering policy suspends an account at an unpublished withdrawal threshold, so KYC is discretionary. The binding terms state no withdrawal timeframe.

A Stake alternative "like Stake" on those four axes would hold a Curacao licence in good standing, document a similar coin list, and say when it asks for ID. The records show how far each operator gets.

These 11, plus Stake itself. A twelfth operator names Curacao in its help centre but could not be matched in the register, so it is left out.

Operator	Licence status (register)	Coins shared with Stake	KYC on withdrawal	Timeframe in terms
BetFury	Assessment in progress	10 of 12	discretionary	yes
Bitcasino	Indefinite	9 of 12	discretionary	no
Cloudbet	Assessment in progress	13 of 29	threshold	no
Duelbits	Assessment in progress	13 of 13	discretionary	no
Jackbit	Assessment in progress	15 of 18	required	no
mBit	Indefinite	9 of 10	discretionary	no
Rollbit	Expired	4 of 5	discretionary	no
Roobet	Indefinite	10 of 11	required	no
Shuffle	Indefinite	no data	required	no
Sportsbet.io	Active, with no expiry recorded	10 of 13	required	yes
Stake	Assessment in progress	21 of 21	discretionary	no
Thunderpick	Assessment in progress	no data	required	yes

"Coins shared" counts the coins an operator documents that also appear on Stake's list of 21. "No data" means no binding document enumerates a coin. Thunderpick is a commercial partner of this site, disclosed on its entry and on the disclosure page; the table was printed by a script reading the record files, and the partner flag is not an input.

Is a Curacao licence the same thing across these sites?

No. Status is the difference. Six of the twelve, Stake included, sit at "Assessment in progress". Four are "Indefinite", one is "Active, with no expiry recorded", and one has gone further. The registry edition of 16 September 2026 records Rollbit's licence as Expired, and the authority's certificate page says more:

This record for rollbit.com does not confirm current authorization to operate. Application status: Granted. License status: Revoked.

The Curacao licence status page tracks each status edition by edition.

Which Stake alternatives ask for ID the same way?

Five share the discretionary pattern: BetFury, Bitcasino, Duelbits, mBit and Rollbit. Their clauses reserve the right to ask without naming a trigger, which is how Stake's policy reads. Five others require verification before withdrawal: Jackbit, Roobet, Shuffle, Sportsbet.io and Thunderpick. Cloudbet names a threshold. A player who wants to know in advance when the ID request arrives gets a direct answer from six of the eleven, and a clause that keeps the operator's options open from the other five. The KYC on withdrawal page quotes each one.

Which ones commit to a payout time?

Three, and Stake is not among them. BetFury's terms allow up to seven days and more if needed. Sportsbet.io gives fiat up to three working days from approval. Thunderpick states up to 24 hours. The other eight, like Stake, bind themselves to no timeframe. A time printed in a help-centre article does not count, because the terms are what a dispute is decided against.

Coins as payout rails

Duelbits is the only one whose whole documented list, 13 coins, sits inside Stake's 21. Jackbit shares 15. Cloudbet documents 29, more than any other operator in the table, of which 13 overlap. Rollbit documents 5. A coin missing from an operator's documents may still be accepted in the cashier; the record counts only what a binding or official page enumerates.

Where these sites cannot be compared

Stake's terms list 45 prohibited jurisdictions, and every operator in the table has its own restricted list. For readers in the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, the United States, France, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, Portugal, Australia or Ontario, online casino play needs a local licence none of these operators holds. This register gives those readers the legal position and a helpline, and no list of alternatives. Each operator's list is on its restricted countries page, starting with Stake's.
