LUGAS is Germany’s centralised monitoring system for online gambling activity. Introduced through the GlüStV 2021 regulation, it was created to enforce nationwide player protection rules – especially the €1,000 monthly deposit limit applied across all licensed online casinos.

Germany’s deposit limits apply across all licensed operators, meaning that even if you play on multiple platforms, your total deposits cannot exceed €1,000 per month. The system is centralized, with the LUGAS monitoring database and the German Gambling Supervisory Authority (GGL) tracking player deposits to ensure compliance.
