I would like to introduce crates on my server at some point. So basically boxes that you have to click with a key and then you get a certain item from a rotary wheel. Then there are rivets and good things. Chances are adjustable by me (owner).
Now my question: Can you then sell these "keys" on a website in Germany? E.g. 1 key = 3 euro or 5 = 10 euro?
Does that count as gambling and is it illegal here? What exactly is the situation like?
The opportunities can also be made visible to everyone.
Unfortunately, I don't know, but I would recommend reading Minecraft's EULA
https://www.minecraft.net/...n-us/eula/
there should be something in there
As far as I know it works. In order for it to be a game of chance at all, you have to gamble with money for money and it must definitely be random
Crates should be allowed. I'm concerned with German law.
You can then use these keys to draw a random item in-game.
You are not allowed to sell crates for real money after Minecraft Eula.
Under German law, that would not fall under the gambling paragraphs, as far as nothing has changed since I know that
The opportunities can also be made visible to everyone.
I would like to point out that the chances of gambling are also known.
I would classify it emotionally as a commercial game of chance, since you want to sell something for money that does not always have a value.
That is not completely right. There are no bans there.
You always get ingame items, of course not always the best.
That would have done it anyway.
Yes. But the countervalue for my assignment is not predetermined.
All other servers do the same and everything seems to be fine. So if that is forbidden, then again it is the mood of the German Michel… Too bad. Yes you just get a key and can use it to open something.
Wouldn't have. That is actually not true.
You can only do that if the users are from SH.
Why?
I don't know for sure either. I'm puzzling here, just like you. Can you also read in my answer above.
I would be very careful.
Because gambling is only allowed there. SH = Schleswig-Holstein
"must definitely be random"
Gambling machines do not return a random result. (Pseudo random would be the more appropriate word)
