Uganda's online poker casinos now cover most of the country's impressive $42 million annual gambling spend. The East African nation has 13 brick-and-mortar casinos of which 12 of them are located in Kampala, but patrons now access online websites to engage in poker games. The online poker rooms have mushroomed under the watch of the National Lotteries and Gaming Regulatory Board since the 7-year old Lotteries and Gaming Act of 2016.
Ugandan poker sites provide big payout percentages ranging up to 98.26% on some websites and sign-up bonuses exceeding $1,500. Players enjoy thousands of game titles in line with multiple playing styles. The legal age for gambling within the nation remains 25 years, above most other locations throughout the world. The top poker sites use advanced SSL encryption and withdraw money in 15 minutes, which makes them more inviting than going offline to a casino.
