One of the oldest operating platforms dedicated to gambling and video game skins from CS:GO. Seven years of history and a crystal clear reputation is rare in the environment, where so many scams are born. What does CSGOEmpire look like today?
CSGOEmpire
On the CSGOEmpire platform you can bet not only on esports, but also on regular sports such as football, basketball or tennis
Let’s start with a small warning: when you type CSGOEmpire into Google search, the first results that may pop up are sponsored results that claim to be CSGOEmpire in the title, but they are not (be careful here, they may be scams). The right page appears first in organic search (under sponsored results). However, it is far safer to use the direct link csgoempire.com. The real CSGOEmpire was one of the first websites that stood at the beginning of the era of gambling around gaming skins. It is surprising that for seven years it has avoided all the controversies that still arise in this environment. Its clean record and long history have made it one of the most popular platforms. We must not fail to mention its official gambling license. CSGOEmpire is trusted by thousands of active users today. Below, we’ll take a look at what it actually offers.
Registration
The only way to register is by using your Steam account. It’s not difficult to create a Steam account, but we recommend adding your phone number and mobile authenticator (an app on your phone) to prevent any account theft. Once you have your account created, just link it to CSGORoll (using the “Log In” button on the homepage). Finally, you need to complete the KYC (Know Your Customer) process. This is how the provider verifies that you are not a robot and tries to prevent possible money laundering. In most cases, it is sufficient to show one of your identification documents (ID card, passport).
Payment methods
Deposit
The reason, why an entire industry dedicated to gambling on cosmetic game accessories has emerged, is just a simple option to deposit using CS:GO skins (the Steam platform itself doesn’t allow them to be valued, only sold and then transferred to your Steam wallet, from which the money cannot be withdrawn). Besides, you can increase your CSGOEmpire balance using payment cards, online wallets (Neteller, Astropay, Skrill or Jeton). Paying using Paysafe cards was once popular among young people, but today it is on the decline, making way for payments using cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Litecoin, USDC, Tether). It is also possible to use gift cards or payments via phone (only Google Pay is supported, Apple Pay is not).
Withdrawal
Cryptocurrencies will be used to withdraw funds again (same as the deposit), but if you’re not a fan, you can withdraw using CS:GO skins in your Steam inventory.
Bonuses
The main bonus feature is leveling up your CSGOEmpire account. For every level you gain, you will receive a key to a bonus box. Another bonus is the daily coin amount, the size of which is based on how much you bet or play.
Games
The CSGOEmpire platform offers just two games: roulette and coin flip (played against another player for coins). Of course, this alone would not retain such a wide player base – it also offers regular betting. In addition to regular sports, betting markets includes also wide selection of esports.
Betting markets
1) Sports
- 🥅 Sports: Football, Tennis, Ice Hockey,Basketball, American football, Australian football, Badminton, Baseball, Baseball, Boxing, Cricket, Darts, Formula 1, Gaelic football, Golf, Handball, Hurling, MMA, Rugby, Snooker, Table Tennis, Volleyball

2) Payout
Payout (the level of odds) represents the percentage return on the amount invested by the bettor. Values that are closest to 100% are the most profitable for the bettor. The difference between 100% and the actual payout is the amount of margin that the bookmaker charges in a given market. The bookmakers’ margin normally ranges between 2% and 10%, but in some cases the margin may be outside this range (on both sides). Major markets, such as major football competitions or major tennis tournaments, tend to have a lower margin than less popular sports or minor competitions, where the margin is usually higher.
The payout will vary from market to market, not only depending on the sport and competition, but also on the occasion or type of bet (prematch or live). Information on the average payout will not tell any bettor much, so we have selected a few specific markets to present a rough idea of how high payout you can expect. We have chosen popular sports (football, ice hockey, basketball and tennis) and markets (1X2, money line, over/under, Asian handicap). We have deliberately chosen the competition categories in contrast to each other to show differences among matches with high betting volume and vice versa.
