A little warning here for the CG Community: Casino Guru is an open platform where everyone is free to share their thoughts and opinions. We believe in free speech and try to be as non-restrictive as possible. That said, please remember: just because something is posted on the forum doesn’t mean Casino Guru agrees with it or endorses it in any way. We’re really happy to see players engaging in conversations, debating respectfully, and having fun doing so! That’s why we created this platform. However, we’ve noticed a growing trend – not just here, but across other platforms too – where some players, after losing money fairly in a casino, look for ways to get those funds back through their bank or payment provider, often by filing chargebacks or making false claims. We’d like to warn you: this behaviour is not only unfair – it’s also very risky! We’ve already seen and heard stories (here and elsewhere) of people who got into serious trouble trying to go down this route – including closed casino accounts across multiple platforms, closed bank accounts, debts, and even lawsuits (attempted fraud). Attempting fraud or misrepresenting the truth to a bank or provider is never a good idea and could have lasting consequences. So here’s our friendly appeal to all Casino Guru community members: Stand up against unfair and dishonest casinos. Use our Complaints Resolution Center if you need help – you don’t have to fight alone. But please don’t try to get back money you’ve fairly lost. It’s simply not worth the risk. Thanks for being part of our community – and have a great day!

Hi,

Do you have a source for that quote from Mastercard you'd be willing to share with me, via email if needs be?

It would be a massive help with my current Starling/Ombudsman case that could see me get about 12k back!

From a Mastercard Live Chat - also available in multiple other sources including Merchant terms and conditions.


Yes, in Mastercard terms and conditions, a special category is required to accept gambling payments.

Specifically, gambling merchants are identified by Merchant Category Code (MCC) 7995: Lottery, Betting, and Gambling. This MCC is used for a variety of gambling operations, including:

* Casinos (physical and online)

* Sports betting operations

* Lottery operators

* Racetracks

* Online bingo platforms

Mastercard, along with other payment networks, uses MCCs to categorize transactions, manage risk, and ensure compliance with regulations. Businesses operating under high-risk MCCs like 7995 often face stricter scrutiny, higher processing fees, and specific requirements to prevent fraud and comply with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations.

Furthermore, Mastercard has specific rules regarding gambling transactions, including:

* Payment of Winnings (POW): Mastercard has a dedicated "Payment of Winnings" stand-alone credit specifically for gambling merchants to pay game winnings to customers. This is restricted to merchants under MCC 7995.

* Credit Card Restrictions: In many jurisdictions (like the UK), the use of credit cards for gambling transactions is prohibited. Mastercard's rules and various regulations aim to prevent such transactions.

* Merchant Location and Licensing: Merchants must only acquire payments within their licensed "area of use" and hold all necessary licenses and permits to conduct their business in that country.

* No Mis-coding: Mastercard actively monitors and penalizes merchants who attempt to mis-code gambling transactions under non-gambling MCCs to circumvent restrictions.

In essence, while Mastercard facilitates gambling payments, it does so under stringent conditions, requiring specific categorization and adherence to various rules to manage the associated risks and regulatory requirements.

Η Τράπεζα της Ισπανίας... θα σας πει απλώς ότι οι συναλλαγές ήταν συναινετικές και ότι η τράπεζα δεν έχει καμία υποχρέωση να παρακολουθεί αυτές τις πλατφόρμες. Σας το λέω αυτό εκ πείρας... προσπαθήστε να πιέσετε την τράπεζα όσο περισσότερο μπορείτε. Είναι ο μόνος τρόπος για να κλιμακώσουν τη διαμάχη σας.

Λοιπόν, έχω υποβάλει καταγγελία και έχω κάνει πολλές συζητήσεις με την Revolut που αλλάζουν εκδόσεις. Ας δούμε αν η Τράπεζα της Ισπανίας μπορεί να με βοηθήσει λίγο. Δεν πρόκειται για την εξουσιοδότηση πληρωμής αλλά για τη χρήση του λανθασμένου MCC και τι συνεπάγεται.

Σας συμβουλεύω επίσης, όπως κάνουν πολλοί σε αυτό το φόρουμ, να προσπαθήσετε να βρείτε πληροφορίες σχετικά με το κατάστημα που αναφέρεται στην δήλωσή σας. Επικοινωνήστε με αυτό το κατάστημα και στείλτε τους ένα email ισχυριζόμενοι ότι δεν έχετε αγοράσει ποτέ τίποτα από αυτά. Πολλοί άνθρωποι έχουν λάβει άμεση επιστροφή μέρους ή όλων των χρημάτων τους.

Ahhh, yeah. I have all the T&C's and the chargeback guidance, but it's those actual, magic words that I need directly from Mastercard, to prove my point.

I've been down the road of all of those points from the T&C's with my bank but they (and the Ombudsman) are of the opinion that because the funds eventually ended up being used for gambling, they are gambling transactions.

This quote neutralises that argument completely.

Sadly, I've not been able to find either a live chat for Mastercard or get a meaning response through Social Media.

Thank you btw, I forgot to add that.


If there's any advice or anything you can offer me to underline that point, then you can always email me....

You won't. They're a bunch of C Units.

I've had terrible problems with them. Routes I've tried with them.......


1) I've got a gambling block on - 'Sorry mate, they might be gambling transactions but the MCC is wrong, so there's nothing we could have done'


2) Oh, so these aren't gambling transactions then? 'Sorry mate, they definitely are. We've investigated them using special techniques we can't tell you about but we KNOW they are gambling merchants'


3) OK, so can we charge these back as goods not recieved then, as I never received any goods or services from these companies? - 'Sorry mate, no we can't - see last reply'


4) Hi, these are some goods I ordered, but I never received them, can you please charge them back. I have evidence of the companies not supplying the goods and failing to communicate with me? - 'Yes mate, course we can'.................... Several days later............... 'Sorry mate, was wrong. We've investigated these transactions and they are DEFINITELY gambling merchants and not what you claimed, so no chargebacks'


5) Hi, I can see you've blocked some payments to a company called 'XXXXXXXXX' and the reason for the decline is that I have a gambling block on my card. Does this mean you now block all of these rogue merchants? - 'No, sorry mate. We just go through some transactions in a half arsed manner and randomly block some of them, then let them through, then block them again. Also, we never did any of that, don't know what you're talking about?'


6) So you can track this money from my account, through the 3rd party and tell me where it was eventually deposited? In that case you know the casino is a scam and I never had a chance of winning, so technically, this isn't gambling. So can we get my money back now? - 'Nah, sorry mate'


7) Can you tell me the casino I deposited at then? - 'Nah mate, that's top secret information. Also, how we find out is top secret too, we definitely don't just google the merchants and find out that way, oh no.'


8.) 'Mate, please stop bothering us, we can't be arsed to help you. Yes, even though you've provided clear evidence of the scam, faked transactions, that another Client bank that uses MasterCard has succesfully charged back transactions like these and they were supported by Mastercard etc. Take it to the Ombudsman. Oh, and here are some patronising links to safer gambling sites. Now off you Fuck'


So that's where I am up to. First complaint about to go to Ombudsman after Investigator sided with bank. I just need to produce a few extra bits of evidence first. Then if I win, I'll lodge my second complaint.


In the interim, I'm writing a complaint to MasterCard UK and if it's not resolved, I will then take that to the Ombudsman.


This is why, I need the source and evidence of the quote from the chap above about transactions only being classed as gambling, if they are coded as such.


With that evidence, the defence that all banks that use Mastercard use, falls apart. IF, and it's a big IF, I can then get the Ombudsman to side with me, it will set a precedent that would see everyone here get their money back from Mastercard banks.


So, if anyone has any advice or evidence they can provide, with sources, then please let me know. I'd prefer to do it over email if possible.


Thanks in advance

Επικοινώνησα με την Mastercard για να δω ποια είναι η άποψή τους σχετικά με το τι κάνουν τα καζίνο που χρησιμοποιούν εμπόρους. Θα σας ενημερώνω για την απάντησή τους.
