Common questions about Online Casino & Gambling App Debt
Does it matter that the gambling was online?
No. Whether you lost the money in person or on an app, the resulting debt is unsecured and treated the same way in bankruptcy.
What if I gambled on a crypto or trading app?
Losses from crypto or trading apps used like a casino are still just debt if you funded them with credit. That debt can usually be discharged. We will look at how it is structured.
Were some of these sites even legal?
It usually does not matter to your bankruptcy. The debt you owe to a credit card company or lender is generally dischargeable no matter where the money went. The main exception is large cash advances taken shortly before filing, which a creditor can challenge.
I have debt from several apps. Can one filing handle it all?
Yes. A single bankruptcy covers all your qualifying unsecured debt at once, no matter how many apps or cards it came from.
I was still gambling recently. Is that a problem?
It can be, if recent losses ran through large cash advances. A creditor can challenge very recent debt, so timing your filing matters. Talk to us before you file and we will plan around it.
