Legal disclaimer: what this site is, what it is not and the Pakistani context
Online gambling is not legal or regulated in Pakistan, and no operator holds a Pakistani licence. astronautgame.pk is an independent information resource about the Astronaut crash game; read this page for what that means and for the Pakistani context.
What is this website?
An editorial guide. It is not a gambling operator, takes no bets and no payments, holds no player accounts, and has no tie to a payment company, a game studio or a state body such as the PTA, SBP or NCCIA. The sites it links to belong to third parties; they can be blocked without notice and none holds a Pakistani licence. The content is for adults only (18+).
What is the legal position in Pakistan?
We are not lawyers and this is not legal advice. It is a short map of public texts and reports, checked on 12 October 2026.
| Source | What it says | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|
| Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977, s. 2 | “Gaming” includes wagering or betting, and a common gaming-house can be any place with instruments of gaming | The Act predates online play and does not mention it, but it has no exception for games of skill either |
| Same Act, s. 4 | Being found in a gaming-house: up to one year in prison and/or a fine of up to Rs 5,000 | Penalties include prison, not only fines |
| Same Act, s. 6 | Gaming in a private place: up to two years and/or a fine of up to Rs 1,000 | A private place is not an exemption |
| Same Act, s. 7 | A repeat offence: up to three years and/or a fine of up to Rs 2,000 | A second offence is treated more severely |
| Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act 2016, s. 37 | The PTA can remove and block unlawful online content. The Cabinet Division told the National Assembly on 6 August 2025 that 184 betting and gambling sites and apps had been blocked, and the press reported 260 by 20 September 2025 | A site or app can disappear without notice |
| NCCIA, 22 August 2025 | Declared 46 betting and trading apps illegal, asked the PTA to block them and told citizens to delete them | An app that was open yesterday can be on a list tomorrow |
We found no provincial amendment on online betting, but absence from a search is not proof that none exists; ask a Pakistani lawyer. We also found no published list of countries restricted by 100HP Gaming. That is not permission to play: Pakistani law applies whatever a studio publishes.
What about payments?
Payment channels are being tightened. Pakistani press reports in October 2026 said that FIA investigators in Faisalabad traced turnover of Rs 119.93 billion through 11 single-member companies and that JazzCash had closed more than 100 aggregator accounts, and they referred to new State Bank rules for payment intermediaries issued in May 2026. A deposit sent through an agent’s wallet can therefore be frozen, and this site cannot help you recover it.

- Figures about the game come from the studio’s card and the official demo and may change; the casino’s terms prevail.
