If you are a
fan of crypto gambling, then in all likelihood you have heard of Roobet Casino. In fact, if you are interested in the genre, you are probably already playing there, or at least considering it, since it is well recognised as
one of the best around.
Of course, with such an awesome offering of
over 2,400 crypto games, easy banking in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin, and
lots of rewards and promotions, it is one of our favourite places too.
However, we know that some of our readers - especially if they are located in places like
the US or UK
- have
concerns about accessing
various casinos.
So we will start off by already letting you know that even if you are located in the United States or United Kingdom, or any other country or territory that tends to
have gambling restrictions, in all likelihood,
you will be able to play at Roobet, and in full.
The question is then
if you will need a VPN
to access Roobet or not, and what this entails. In reality, it is even simpler than you think.
While from our experience it is
pretty unlikely
that you will need a VPN to visit Roobet,
it is possible
that you might. And if such an instance occurs, you want to be ready.
That means
understanding what to do and
which steps to take. That's why we have spelled it out for you here, in more detail then you may have even wanted.

Basically, if you have ever used a VPN before, it works the exact same way. And it goes like this:
For some this is an easy task. And if you already have a VPN you use, then you are good to go.
For others, you will need to decide which VPN service is right for you in terms of accessing Roobet as well as your other internet surfing needs.
Along similar lines, part of this decision will be based on whether you want a paid service or free service. You can read about the deciding factors in more detail below.
2.)
Create an account and activate your VPN service
Keep in mind, some services need to be downloaded, while others are browser based.
This again is mostly a personal preference. Whichever you have chosen, you will need to begin by creating an account there.
Once you have done so, it will need to be activated, which usually just means logging in.
3.)
Choose a country
This is probably the most important step for our purposes. After all, choosing the right country is key, especially when it comes to online gambling where there are specific limitations per country.
As such, we recommend choosing a country where Roobet legally operates, and setting your IP there.
By the way, it can be helpful to read the casino's full T&C page, to see if there are other limitations on a country you may be thinking about. This helps to ensure you have complete access to all the games you want with the IP you sign up from.
4.)
Go to the Roobet website
Activated your VPN? Check.
Chose an IP address you are satisfied with? Check.
Great, now you are ready to do what you wanted.
And that is visit
Roobet.com, crypto's fastest growing casino – or at least that's what their slogan says.
5.)
Register at Roobet and play, play, play
Now that you have full access to the Roobet offering, the world is your oyster. Sorry, that's cheesy, but you know what we mean.
All you have to do now is create an account at this awesome crypto casino and go from there, exploring the thousands of games including a huge array of crypto slots, table games, live games, and fantastic originals. All of them are completely mobile optimised by the way!
And that is it! All you need to know about how to play at
Roobet
with a VPN from the UK or US, or wherever you find yourself.
Just remember, most people don't always want to have a VPN turned on. You can if you want, mind you. But if you don't, especially
if you are using a free service
which is generally more limited, make sure to
turn it off
each time you leave the Roobet website.

Let us begin by defining terms and
understanding what a VPN
is in the first place, and why you might need one.
So VPN actually stands for
virtual private network. And what that means essentially is that it allows you to
send and receive data
as if you were
connected to a private network. Which sounds a bit like jargon, we admit, so to simplify things even more, basically what it does is allow you to connect to the internet in a
private and secure manner
by encrypting your data,
sending it through
a secure network in a
different location, and in so doing,
masking your IP.
Your
IP address
of course being what
identifies the physical location
of where your device (i.e. you) are found when you are online. You can use such a service
on any device, including a desktop computer, laptop computer, tablet, or smartphone. Phew!
If that still sounds confusing, we apologise. It isn't really. Anyhow, it isn't necessary to understand the full technical workings to appreciate what a VPN is and what you would be using it for.
So again, to reiterate, a VPN is
used for hiding your IP address. In hiding it, you can
choose the country for your IP address, that would then show your device in Germany, Italy, Australia, or almost anywhere in the world really, depending on which options your VPN service provider offers.
By the way, in no way should masking an IP address be read as nefarious. There are many
good and legitimate reasons
why one may want to browse the internet more privately.
Plus, of course, it
can open up your options
for internet access. For example, if you want to log in to an existing online casino from a restricted country. Like let's say you are a Canadian player, and you have gone to Florida over Christmas break. You may want to use a VPN in this case to show that you are still in Canada, really just to simplify things.
Or what if you yourself are actually from Florida, and technically the
casino isn't available for registration
by US players? In this case you would
register from a Canadian IP, using a VPN service, to circumvent the system picking up on your location.
Or, in the Roobet case, you look in the Terms & Conditions, and note that certain
NetEnt gamesare blocked where you live, you may want to choose to set your IP address in accordance. You get the drift.

Much like
Stake casino, Roobet is
very open
to online gamblers. And by that we mean that while
it does have policies
in place delineating where you can and can't access the site from, it
is not as stringent
as some other casinos in
enforcing them.
That means, while some online casinos
won't even let you open their website
if you are physically located in a restricted territory, Roobet will. That is, generally speaking,
you can access and register at Roobet from anywhere in the world
without needing a VPN. Mind you, we admit that we have not tried every single location. So it is possible that you will need one, which of course, you can determine for yourself when you try to visit the site.
However, there are a few
things to keep in mind. For starters, Roobet is
pretty strict about restricting
players. For example, in the
Terms & Conditions section
of its website it lists in no uncertain terms, that:
"People living or having a permanent or temporary residence in any of these countries are not entitled to register an account or access the website in any way."
It then goes on to name a
long list of countries, which unsurprisingly includes the
United States and United Kingdom. It is also
quite specific about its tolerance
for using VPNs, stating:
"Any account found to access the website from a restricted area via a VPN or another method to hide his identity will be banned from the website and all services. Furthermore, any Roobidos remaining in the Roobido-safe will be frozen indefinitely."
From our experience, the operator
does often pick up
on people who are trying to visit using a VPN, so it
is not as easy to play here
as other places, though it can be done.
"As such, in all fairness, we do have to mention at this point, that what we are writing here
is for information purposes
- that is, so you have an idea of what you can potentially do to access Roobet from restricted countries. And while we are
sure it will work, it is
not necessarily meant to be taken as advice." Vienne Garcia - Online Casino Expert
All that being said,
in some cases Roobet will knowingly let you play from a VPN. But you would need to contact the casino to get written consent from the Roobet customer support team to do so.
Best VPN for Roobet
While the appeal of joining Roobet is obvious, what is less clear is
how to pick a VPN. With so many such services on the market, it can be an
overwhelming endeavour. A recommendation from a friend or colleague is always a good option, or you can do your due diligence and scour the internet for lists of
top 10 VPN services
or
best VPN
and the likes. But we know you want our opinion too, so:
From our experience, there are a few names that tend to top the "best of" lists repeatedly. For example,
NordVPN is a popular option and often ranks
high in terms of privacy and speed
in particular. It lets you connect up to
six devices
on a single account, and has over 5400 servers in 60 countries for a whole lot of options.
Plus, you get
protection from intrusive ads, malware, and trackers built in. If you want to give it a try with little commitment you can sign up for
a single month at $11.99, or enjoy huge savings with a two-year commitment, coming out at a mere $3.29 per month.
Surfshark
is also
known to be great, with the
same protections and top security. And it just so happens to be even lower priced when you go for the two-year deal, at
just $2.49 a month.
Other popular options include
ExpressVPN, Private Internet Access VPN, and
CyberGhost. All of these services are
really quite similar, with the
same basic features
in terms of hiding your IP, quick connections, many country options, and multiple device connections - so ultimately the choice is up to you, whether it is based on instinct or advice you've received.
Free VPN for Roobet
If you don't have much need to mask your IP beyond playing at Roobet, then
a free VPN might be just what you need. In terms of commitment that is.
That is because most
free VPNs
will
limit your usage
to a certain number of MBs. For example, with
the free TunnelBear
account,
you get just 500 MB. This is not a whole lot of capacity. But if you are just checking the casino out, or only play intermittently that could be enough. Of course, you can all of this can be upgraded with a fee.
Just keep in mind that in general free services are
considered less secure, with more
openings for hackers and tracking. And the customer support will be less committed to you. Also, remember the saying, "if you don't pay for a product, then you are the product," which means many companies earn money
by selling your registration details
to third-party advertisers amongst other things, which could result in some spamming.
This does not mean all services operate this way, but it is important to be aware that
paying such a nominal fee
as most VPN services charge
could be well worth the value, even if just in terms of peace of mind.
As for other providers to consider in addition to TunnelBear,
Proton
is a popular name in the game, as are
Windscribe
and
Hotspot Shield Free.

Playing at Roobet with a VPN is obvious enough in terms of how it works, but you may be wondering how banking works too.
Well, frankly, in
exactly the same way as without one. That is, you log in to your account, open the Roobet cashier,
click the 'Deposit' tab, and choose one of the options, ie.
Bitcoin,
Ethereum, or
Litecoin.
Same goes for withdrawals. It is the same process. The only difference is that you will need to
click the 'Withdraw' tab
instead.
That being said, we also want to point out one small thing in terms of VPNs and banking. While crypto is known for being superb in terms of privacy and security, we know some players prefer to
interpose a private wallet
such as Electrum, Ledger, or Exodus, when using a crypto wallet such as
Coinbase for making deposits for casino gambling, as an
extra layer to ensure geo-privacy, blocking the platform from seeing what the digital cash is being used for.
Another thing you might want to remember, at the point in the flow that you're asked for your
personal details, you may want to think about the phone number and address you provide in
correlation to your chosen IP.
pachinko gambling online
For those living in the UK or US having issues connecting to Roobet, a
VPN can be a great solution. If you get such a service, rest assured it actually
has many uses.
While we wouldn't necessarily use one all the time, there are many people who do. Like we mentioned above, they simply like the
added layer of privacy
it gives them in terms of their internet activity.
Another similar advantage is that with your movements encrypted and
your IP hidden, it also adds
protection in terms of cyber security, shielding you from the various trolls and hackers out there. And since VPN servers in general don't store user data logs, they can't get to you there either.
It can also be useful if you want to
visit a website that is country specific and closed to foreign traffic, or check prices on hotel rooms offered to residents in different countries to see what you would be offered if you ordered from there.
Others use it for
watching TV online
in different countries, or placing something like their Netflix account in a different country, so they can see programs not yet released where they live.
In other words, while you may not have thought about it before, a VPN can be a
very useful thing.

Uggh. Yes, it is possible that this can happen too - that your VPN isn't working with Roobet. A VPN, after all, like any service can experience a glitch. And it is annoying as heck when it happens. But from our experience,
it is super rare. Actually, we have never had that happen, but we assume it is possible, so just in case, here are
a few general tips:
Start with the master technique.
Log out
of your VPN and then
log back in.
If that doesn't work, you can try turning your
computer off and on.
If that doesn't do the trick, there could be one of a
number of things going on.
The Roobet site might simply be
down for maintenance
(i.e. a temporary issue).
Your VPN server may temporarily be down.
You have a
blocked router setting.
Your
antivirus or firewall service
is for whatever reason blocking Roobet.
You may have too many
VPNs installed.
Whichever it is, will require
a bit of research
to figure it out. As always, Google or a techie friend can usually help.
If you are having an issue, and you think it may be on the Roobet side, we
don't particularly recommend getting in contact with their support. Like we mentioned,
Roobet is pretty strict
about VPN connections, so you want to play here as quietly as you can once you are in. By starting up a chat, you may get an agent looking into your account, which may not pan out so well in terms of your access.
That being said, you could
always contact the VPN provider, who could possibly help you troubleshoot what's going on.

Bottom line, we can't tell you what to do here for obvious reasons. What we can and did tell you is
how to play
at Roobet with a VPN in theory, as well as the
various benefits.
For us, while Roobet is known to be pretty strict about these matters, we think it
can be worth an attempt
because frankly, as you have likely heard, Roobet is simply
one of the best crypto casinos
around. And who wouldn't want to get in on that game?
Basically, if you want to
give it a go, try. Best case scenario, you will be happily playing at Roobet from anywhere in the world - where you are actually found, or simply where your IP address says you are.
'Roobet VPN - How to play' - compiled by Vienne Garcia
I've been working in the online casino landscape in Malta for more than 10 years and have seen how the industry works from customer service roles to the backend of the business. While I am lucky enough to call myself a native on the sunny island called Malta, I also enjoy travelling and have travelled across Canada! After wandering through the great white north, I have decided to share my knowledge and now work with Canadian players to compile accurate casino reviews to help players navigate through the hundreds of gaming sites online.
