Casino Affiliate Programmes in Switzerland
5 casino programmes in the TopStep Partners network accept players from Switzerland. Which of them you can promote depends on the local licensing rules and the channels you run.
The Switzerland market for affiliates
Switzerland's Gambling Act, in force since 2019, allows online casino games only as an extension of a Swiss land-based casino concession, supervised by the Federal Gaming Board (ESBK), with lotteries and betting under the intercantonal authority Gespa. Unlicensed operators are placed on a public blocklist and their domains are blocked by Swiss ISPs.
- Swiss-licensed casino brands are few and each is tied to a physical casino. Everything else is blocked, so offshore promotion here fights the ISP filter from day one.
- Four national languages: German-speaking Switzerland is the volume, but French and Italian pages address audiences that most affiliates ignore.
- CHF pricing and Swiss payment methods matter. A cashier that lacks them converts poorly even on a licensed brand.
Correct at the time of writing; check the current rule with the regulator or platform named above. Not legal advice. Your deal terms take precedence.
