Welcome to the world of online roulette, the most iconic and elegant game in the history of gambling. Whether you're a seasoned strategist or a newcomer about to watch the wheel spin for the first time, Ladbrokes has you covered. Roulette is the embodiment of the online casino. The sound of the ball bouncing across the pockets, the silence just before it drops into one, the joy when your number comes in: that's the magic we bring to your screen.
This page covers online roulette games in Belgium from every angle. You'll find the rules of the game, every bet type with its payout, the differences between European, French and American roulette, and what the famous strategies are really worth.
Ladbrokes brings online casino roulette to Belgium with 30+ RNG roulette games in one lobby, from penny tables to premium versions. Every roulette table is played on screen, with no dealer and no waiting between spins. You set the pace. Roulette play online at Ladbrokes runs 24/7. The minimum bet starts at a few cents on tables like Penny Roulette and 25c Roulette, and the Ladbrokes online casino puts roulette next to slots, dice and cards on one account.
Belgium regulates casino roulette strictly, and that works in your favour. Each roulette game in our lobby is licensed in Belgium, uses certified software and displays its payouts and RTP in the help screen before you place a single chip.
Ladbrokes Roulette Pro is our own branded table on a single-zero wheel. You won't find it at other Belgian operators. It sits alongside the rest of our Ladbrokes-only casino games, a collection we add to throughout the year.
The lobby also carries themed roulette tables with a personality of their own. Frankie Dettori's Roulette and Vinnie Jones Roulette add celebrity flavour to classic rules. European Football Roulette swaps the usual felt for a pitch. Roulette Deluxe and European Roulette Pro keep things traditional.
Ladbrokes operates under A+ licence A+65721 from the Belgian Gaming Commission, held by SA Casino de Dinant in partnership with Derby S.A. Because Ladbrokes is fully licensed, the Belgian Gaming Commission supervises every roulette table we offer. Belgian law sets the minimum age at 21 with no exceptions. We check the identity and age of every player before the first deposit.
Your account is protected in three concrete ways:
● Secure payments: deposit with Bancontact, PayPal, Neteller, Paysafecard or Neosurf, with all data encrypted.
● Certified RNG: independent laboratories test our random number generator to confirm that results cannot be predicted.
● Deposit limits: you set your own ceilings from your profile, and time limits keep sessions in check.
Responsible gaming matters at a roulette table, where rounds pass quickly. Set your limits before you play, take breaks, and treat roulette as entertainment rather than a source of income.
30+ RNG tables, from 25c spins to premium layouts. Pick a wheel, set your stakes and spin in seconds.
Roulette games follow three simple steps. You place your chips on the betting layout, the ball is launched around the wheel, and the ball settles into one of the numbered pockets. Every bet covering that pocket earns its payout; the other stakes are collected. On a European wheel the pockets run from 0 to 36, coloured red and black except for the green single zero.
In virtual roulette, the random number generator decides the winning pocket and an animation shows the spin. Each spin is independent. The number history and the hot and cold numbers on screen are fun to follow, yet they predict nothing, because the wheel has no memory.
Beside the main layout, many tables show a racetrack: an oval that follows the order of numbers on the wheel. It lets you place sector bets such as Voisins du Zéro (the 17 numbers around zero), Tiers du Cylindre (the 12 numbers opposite) and Orphans (the 8 that remain). Advanced players love it.
Inside bets go directly on the numbers of the roulette layout. They win less often, but the payout on each is much higher:
● Straight-up: one number, paid 35 to 1.
● Split: two adjacent numbers, paid 17 to 1.
● Street: a row of three numbers, paid 11 to 1.
● Corner: four numbers meeting at one point, paid 8 to 1.
● Six line: two adjacent rows, paid 5 to 1.
A straight-up gives you a 1 in 37 chance on a single-zero wheel. The gap between that probability and the 35 to 1 payout is the house edge, and the house edge stays the same whichever inside bet you choose.
Outside bets cover large groups of numbers along the edge of the layout, so you win more often at lower payouts. Red/black, odd/even and high/low (1 to 18 or 19 to 36) each pay 1 to 1. A dozen covers 12 numbers (1 to 12, 13 to 24 or 25 to 36) and pays 2 to 1, as does a column. Dozens and columns are the middle ground between safety and payout.
These even-money bets suit beginners and anyone testing a betting system on a low stake. They also make your budget last longer, because winnings come around more regularly. The zero is the catch: when the ball lands on zero, every outside bet loses, except on French roulette.
Roulette is a game of chance, and no betting system changes the odds or the house edge. Roulette strategies can still help you manage your bankroll and play with discipline.
Martingale is the best-known system. You double your stake after every loss on even-money bets like red/black, so the first win recovers everything plus one unit. Seven losses in a row, which happen more often than you'd think, require 128 times your first stake, and the table limit can stop the sequence before your luck turns.
Fibonacci raises your stake along the famous number sequence after a loss and steps back two places after a win, which is gentler than Martingale. D'Alembert adds one unit after a loss and removes one after a win. Paroli reverses the logic and doubles after wins instead.
The house always keeps its mathematical edge: use a strategy for structure, never as a plan to get rich.
Our responsible gaming tools let you set deposit and time limits before you start.
Not every roulette wheel is the same. Each roulette variant in our lobby differs in the one thing that matters most: the house edge. The number of zeros on the wheel decides your long-term odds and RTP, so check it before you sit down. Beyond the classic three, you'll find tables with side bets and unusual layouts, such as 101 Roulette.
European roulette, the single-zero game made famous in Monaco, is the standard in Belgium and by far the most popular variant. The wheel has 37 pockets: the numbers 1 to 36 and a single green zero. The house edge is 2.7%, which means a return to player (RTP) of 97.3% over the long run.
For most players, this balance of simple rules and fair odds makes European online roulette the best choice. Try European Roulette Classic or Premium European Roulette for your first spin.
French roulette uses the same single-zero wheel as the European version but adds two rules that protect even-money bets when the ball lands on zero:
Either rule lowers the house edge on red/black, odd/even and high/low to just 1.35%, making French roulette statistically the most favourable game in the casino. Premium French Roulette brings French online roulette, with its original bet names, to your screen.
American roulette adds a double zero (00) to the wheel, taking it to 38 pockets. This looks like a small change, yet the double zero almost doubles the house edge to 5.26% and cuts the RTP to 94.74%. Some players still choose American Roulette or Premium American Roulette for the five-number bet (0, 00, 1, 2, 3), which only exists on this wheel, or simply for the Las Vegas feel of American online roulette.
Lowest house edge in the casino: 1.35% on even-money bets. Premium French Roulette is waiting. Before you play, check the number of zeros; that one detail matters more than any strategy.
Virtual roulette is roulette played entirely on screen. Software spins an animated wheel, a certified RNG picks the pocket, and the next spin starts as soon as you're ready. This automated roulette format gives you the fastest pace, the lowest stakes and a free demo mode on many tables.

RNG roulette relies on a random number generator, a program that produces an unpredictable number for every spin of the wheel. Here is what happens each time you press spin:
Independent test laboratories certify the RNG and audit it regularly, and the Belgian Gaming Commission requires those checks. Playtech RNG tables such as Premium European Roulette and Age of the Gods: Spin A Win follow exactly this process.
Multiplier roulette keeps the classic single-zero rules and adds random boosts. On Mega Fire Blaze Roulette, bonus multipliers can land on selected numbers and pay far above the usual 35 to 1 when your straight-up hits one. Multiplier roulette such as Turbo Multifire Roulette and Xtreme Fire Blaze Roulette push the same idea further, and Roulette x2 and Roulette x5 offer their own take on boosted wins.
The volatility is higher, so your winnings swing more between spins. The odds of each pocket stay unchanged, and so does the house edge on the base game.
Quick answers to the questions Belgian players ask most often about casino roulette online at Ladbrokes.
The main difference is the number of zeros on the wheel. European Roulette has one green zero (0), giving a total of 37 pockets. American Roulette has both a zero (0) and a double zero (00), bringing the total to 38 pockets. Because of this extra pocket, the house edge in American Roulette is higher (5.26%) than in European Roulette (2.7%). We therefore usually recommend the European variant to beginners.
Yes. Many of our virtual roulette games offer a demo mode, so you can play roulette for free with play money. Free online roulette is the easiest way to learn. Use it to learn the rules, practise different bets and test a betting strategy without risking real money. Switch to real money whenever you feel ready.
Yes. Ladbrokes holds an A+ licence from the Belgian Gaming Commission, and every RNG roulette table uses a certified random number generator that guarantees random results. Independent laboratories test that software regularly. The payout for each bet is fixed, and the RTP is shown in the game rules.
In standard roulette, a straight-up bet on a single number pays the most: 35 to 1. Multiplier roulette tables such as Mega Fire Blaze Roulette can raise that payout on selected numbers, although the odds of the ball landing on your number don't change.
Play online roulette on your smartphone or tablet with the same games you find on desktop. Whether you use an iPhone or an Android device, the roulette table adapts to your screen: buttons grow for touch, and you place chips on the betting layout with a tap. Every spin, payout and bet type works exactly as on desktop. Graphics match the desktop version. Depositing takes seconds with Bancontact.
Ladbrokes offers far more than roulette when you want a change of pace. Blackjack and baccarat in our online card games section offer a low house edge too, but ask you to make more decisions. For quick action, online slots and Megaways titles offer thousands of ways to win with one press.
Don't forget our online dice games. Dice is Belgium's favourite game type, where insight and luck meet in strategic grids. You'll also find instant-win arcade games, new releases every week and regular casino promotions.
