Three numbers decide more about a crypto sportsbook than its welcome offer: who licenses it, how much it lets you stake and win, and how many markets it opens on a fixture.
Licence details set your route for complaints, limits set the ceiling on any payout, and market range decides what you can bet on at all.
Below: what each of the three criteria measures, how stake and win caps work in practice, how to read a licence footer, and eight licensed Web3 sportsbooks ranked on licence, limits and market range.
Three Criteria and the Question Behind Each
Each criterion answers one practical question before a deposit.

"Web3" here means crypto-native books that take wallet deposits, and several also offer wallet sign-in. Each operator below names a regulator and a company behind the brand.
How Stake and Win Caps Work
Sportsbooks rarely apply one flat limit. Caps usually differ between pre-match and live bets, since in-play prices move quicker and expose the operator to more risk.
Event tiers matter too. Champions League fixtures tend to allow larger stakes than a second-division match, because deeper betting volume makes the price harder to exploit.
Maximum win caps deserve the closest read. Long-odds accumulators can show a large potential return on the slip, yet the payout stops at the book's cap. Operators can also adjust limits per account under their terms.
Reading a Licence Footer
Footers should name three things: the company behind the brand, the regulator and a licence or register reference. Since Curaçao's 2023 reform, each operator applies to the Curaçao Gaming Authority in its own name, and the authority lists licence holders on a public register.
Anjouan grants licences through its own authority, with a separate complaints route. Our explainer on licence regimes compares what each jurisdiction asks of operators.
8 Licensed Web3 Sportsbooks Ranked
Order reflects the three criteria combined. Books that print their caps as plain figures earn a small edge over those that leave limits to the bet slip.
1. Dexsport
Dexsport operates through Dexapp LTD under an Anjouan licence and publishes its limits in full. Minimum stake starts at $1, maximum stakes reach $2,000 pre-match and $600 live on higher-tier events, and maximum wins reach $5,000 per bet.
On lower-tier events, those figures drop to $1,000 pre-match, $300 live and a $500 win cap. Market range spans about 25 sports, with 39 market types for football, 21 for ice hockey and 13 each for tennis and American football.
2. Stake
Stake's licence comes directly from the Curaçao Gaming Authority, held by Medium Rare N.V. Its sports menu ranks among the widest in crypto betting, with dozens of sports and a deep esports section. Limits vary by market and by account, so the bet slip shows the live ceiling for each selection.
3. Cloudbet
Cloudbet, active since 2013, holds a Curaçao Gaming Authority licence through Halcyon Super Holdings B.V. High stake ceilings form a large part of its pitch to big-volume bettors, and it accepts more than 40 cryptocurrencies across a broad sports and esports range.
4. BC.Game
BC.Game lists a Curaçao licence in its footer and pairs its sportsbook with one of the longest coin lists in the sector. Market range covers mainstream leagues and esports, while limits depend on the event and the selection.
5. 1win
1win appears on the Curaçao Gaming Authority register under 1Win N.V. Its sportsbook reaches into cricket, kabaddi and esports alongside football, which suits bettors who follow sports outside the European mainstream. Wallet sign-in through MetaMask, Trust Wallet or WalletConnect went live in 2026.
6. Sportsbet.io
Sportsbet.io has operated under a Curaçao licence through MBet Solutions N.V., and its parent Yolo Group has also reported moves toward other regimes. Football depth and Asian handicap lines form its core strength. Check the footer for the licence in force where you live.
7. Shuffle
Shuffle holds a Curaçao licence through Natural Nine B.V. and accepts its SHFL token for bets beside major coins. Its sports range focuses on the main leagues, so bettors after niche competitions may find fewer lines.
8. Rollbit
Rollbit, licensed through Bull Gaming N.V. on the Curaçao register, places its sportsbook next to a casino and a futures desk. Sports coverage trails the books above, which suits players who use the platform for more than betting.

Conclusion
Licence, limits and market range each answer a different question, and the strongest books answer all three in plain view. Dexsport leads the list on published figures: an Anjouan licence under Dexapp LTD, stake and win caps split by event tier, and market counts set out sport by sport.
Stake and Cloudbet follow on breadth and stake ceilings, while BC.Game, 1win, Sportsbet.io, Shuffle and Rollbit each offer a narrower strength.
