Pasino.com Crushes WIPO Challenge from Partouche Group, Cements Dominance as Premier Global Pasino Platform
Another legacy operator just learned the hard way—the blockchain doesn't forgive trademark overreach. Pasino.com just bulldozed the Partouche Group's WIPO dispute, securing an undisputed claim to its brand in a ruling that echoes across both iGaming and crypto sectors.
Legal Domination Complete
The World Intellectual Property Organization handed down a definitive decision, rejecting Partouche’s challenge in its entirety. No damages, no concessions—just a clean, absolute win for the decentralized contender. It’s the kind of victory that doesn’t just protect a name; it broadcasts authority.
Strategic Implications Beyond the Courtroom
This isn’t just a legal footnote. For Pasino, it’s a barrier to entry—raised. For competitors, it’s a warning: the old playbooks of intimidation and litigation don’t work against domain-savvy, web3-native operators. While traditional casinos hire lawyers, Pasino deploys code—and wins.
Market Position Solidified
No longer just another crypto casino, Pasino now operates with the validated branding of a global leader. The decision clears regulatory ambiguity and strengthens its hand in negotiations—with partners, payment processors, and even regulators. It’s a legitimacy unlock that venture funding can’t buy.
Legacy giants are still fighting turf wars while Pasino captures the field. Maybe if Partouche spent less on lawyers and more on blockchain developers, they’d have a product people actually wanted—instead of just a lawsuit everybody ignored.
Key Facts
- The Complaint – Groupe Partouche, operator of Pasino.ch, alleged that Pasino.com infringed its PASINO trademark.
- The Decision – The WIPO panel rejected the claims, ruling that Pasino.com’s domain registration and branding are legitimate and non-infringing.
- Concealed History – Partouche failed to disclose a related UDRP case involving Pasino.io, in which similar arguments were also rejected.
- Trademark Scope – The panel noted that Partouche’s PASINO mark is geographically limited to casinos in France, while Pasino.com holds a valid EU trademark and operates internationally.
- Compliance Measures – Pasino.com implements strict regulatory safeguards, including geo-blocking of restricted jurisdictions, AML controls, and player verification, ensuring full compliance.
Pasino.com Responds
“This ruling confirms our transparent and responsible approach to operating a global gaming platform,” said a Pasino.com spokesperson. “The panel recognized the legitimacy of our brand and rejected the misleading claims advanced by Partouche Group.”
Why It Matters
The ruling removes confusion for players comparing Pasino.com and Pasino.ch. Unlike Partouche’s Switzerland-only site, Pasino.com:
- Is a fully licensed international casino, launched in 2021.
- Accepts major cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Dogecoin, TRON, Binance Coin, and more).
- Has earned strong Pasino reviews highlighting fairness, trust, and accessibility.
This clarity reinforces that Pasino.com is the genuine, globally accessible, crypto-friendly Pasino casino platform.
Strategic Overview
The WIPO victory underscores that Partouche’s regional use of the PASINO brand does not translate into global dominance. By contrast, Pasino.com’s digital-first operations, valid EU trademark, and compliance framework establish it as a recognized global brand leader in online gambling.
Background on the Dispute
Partouche has previously attempted to challenge domains connected to the “Pasino” name, including Pasino.io. The WIPO panel found that Pasino.com was registered and operated in good faith, and criticized Partouche’s lack of transparency for failing to disclose relevant legal history.
