Is Moon.com available in Spain? No, and Moon says so itself

What Moon’s terms say about Spain

Moon’s terms of service contain a list of restricted jurisdictions, 43 of them at the time of writing, and Spain is on it by name. The terms go on to say that Moon does not hold local gambling licences in the markets it excludes and will not serve users located there. That is the whole of the official position: no Spanish licence, no Spanish service.

The list is applied at registration and again at identity verification, when Moon asks for a government ID and a proof of address. A Spanish document at that step is the point where an account from Spain stops.

Why an offshore operator excludes a market

Spain licenses online gambling nationally under Ley 13/2011, the Gambling Regulation Act of 27 May 2011, administered by the Dirección General de Ordenación del Juego, the DGOJ. Moon does not hold a DGOJ licence, and its terms exclude Spain rather than apply for one.

Excluding a market is also how an operator keeps its own licence clean. Moon is licensed by the Anjouan Gaming Authority, an entry we verified on the regulator’s public register and documented on the licence page. An Anjouan licence does not authorise Moon to take customers from a country that regulates online gambling itself, so the restricted list is Moon staying inside its own permissions.

What this means for a Spanish reader

Three plain consequences.

You cannot open a Moon account from Spain. Registration may not stop you at the first screen, but verification will, and Moon’s terms let it close an account and hold a review over any funds if a user turns out to be in a restricted jurisdiction. Depositing before that point is money at Moon’s discretion under its own terms, with no Spanish regulator to appeal to.

Nothing on this site is an invitation to try anyway. We are an affiliate; we are paid when readers open accounts. We still say, in plain words, that Moon is not available in Spain, because the alternative is sending Spanish residents into a product whose terms exclude them.

The play-money mode is not a loophole. It is a feature of the same account and the same terms.

If you are outside Spain

The restricted list is the authority on where Moon does serve. Moon applies it at sign-up, and the FAQ has the current list. If your country is not on it, the review covers what Moon is, what it charges and how it verifies you, and the safety checklist is the order to do things in.

Will this change?

Operators add and remove markets. If Moon removes Spain from its restricted list, or obtains a Spanish licence, this page will say so with the date and a link to the changed terms. Until then the answer stays no.
