Tsars Triples Payout Processing Time From 24 to 72 Hours
Worse for players
NegativeTsars has tripled the processing time stated in its payout clause. The clause previously read that all payout requests are processed in the order of the queue within 24 hours; it now reads within 72 hours. Nothing else changed — the queue language and the ordering are identical, only the number moved.
That figure is the casino's own stated commitment for how long it may take to process a withdrawal request once made. Tripling it widens the window from one day to three.

What this means for players
Tsars has tripled the processing time stated in its payout clause. It previously read that all payout requests are processed in the order of the queue within 24 hours; it now reads within 72 hours. The queue language and the ordering are unchanged — only the number moved.
That figure is the casino's own commitment for how long it may take to process a withdrawal request once submitted, before any payment-provider time is added on top. Tripling it widens the window from one day to three.
The same edit reworded clause 4.8, which governs how players must contact support. The CC-and-forwarding warning is not itself new — the previous version already told players not to send “a forward or carbon copy (cc)”. Three things changed. BCC was added to the named list. A sentence was inserted that did not exist before: “We operate through agent email communication, and receipt of emails is only guaranteed when sent directly to us” — turning a practical warning into a limit on what Tsars guarantees it receives at all. And the spam language was softened: “there is a high possibility that these types of emails will go into Spam and therefore won’t be viewed” became “may not be received and could be marked as spam”. Both versions close by noting the procedure matters most for messages about account closure or gambling problems.
Update: one day later, on 4 June 2026, Tsars made the same 24-to-72-hour change to clause 8.2, covering withdrawals and refunds after KYC. That edit left clause 8.3 still stating 24 hours, so the terms now give two different answers for the same action.
What changed
Evidence — full-page captures
Each exhibit is the full terms page exactly as it stood at that moment, archived by us. The originals are large images and open in a new tab.
Tsars has lowered the account balance that triggers a mandatory gameplay review before a withdrawal is released. The trigger previously required a balance of €50,000 or more, or a single win of €10,000 or more. It now triggers at €25,000 or more, keeps the €10,000 single-win trigger, and adds a new one: any win of 5,000x the original bet or more. Two things changed in one edit. The balance threshold is halved, and a multiplier-based trigger that did not previously exist is introduced. Because 5,000x is measured against the stake rather than the payout, a win from a small bet can now trigger a review at amounts far below any previous threshold — a €0.20 spin paying 5,000x returns €1,000, which would not have met either of the old triggers. Clause 8.21 states these check-ups could take up to 7 working days. That duration is unchanged by this edit; what changed is how many players fall into it.
Tsars has moved the deposit turnover requirement in clause 8.3.2.1 from the end of the clause to the beginning, and rephrased it. The requirement itself is unchanged: 3x the deposited amount on slot games and 5x on all other games before a withdrawal, with a 20% fee where it has not been met. This record is logged because the clause text changed, not because the obligation did. The practical effect is that a requirement previously placed where it was easy to miss now appears at the top of the section.
One day after tripling its payout processing time, Tsars made the same change to refunds. The clause previously read that withdrawals, including refunds, shall be provided within 24 hours after completion of KYC and approval of the account; it now reads within 72 hours. Taken with the payout change recorded on 3 June 2026, both of the casino's stated turnaround commitments moved from 24 to 72 hours within 48 hours of each other.
