Gambling licences

Last reviewed: 18 September 2026MawarSlotResmi Editorial Desk

In short

A gambling licence is permission from a named authority for a named company to offer specified gambling activities, usually to consumers in a specified territory, subject to that authority’s rules. It is not a quality mark. It tells you which rulebook applies, who enforces it, and what recourse exists when something goes wrong — which is considerably more useful than a reassurance, and considerably less than a guarantee.

What a licence actually is

Three things are bundled into the word, and separating them is what makes the rest of this site legible.

A permission granted to a company: Licences are held by legal entities, not by brands or websites. One licensee commonly operates many brands. This is why verification starts with the company name in a site’s terms and conditions rather than the name in its logo.
A permission to do specified things: Authorities license activities separately — remote casino, betting, bingo, lotteries, gambling software, and so on — and frequently distinguish remote from non-remote. A company licensed for one activity is not thereby licensed for another.
A permission subject to conditions: The licence is the beginning of the obligations, not the end of them. Conditions cover customer funds, identity verification, advertising, complaint handling, self-exclusion, technical standards and reporting. Breaching them is what regulators sanction licensees for.

What a licence obliges an operator to do

The specifics vary by jurisdiction, but the categories recur across every regime documented on this site. These are the things you lose when an operator is not licensed for your market.

Obligation categories that typically attach to a gambling licence
Category	What it typically covers	Where it matters to you
Customer identity	Verifying identity and age, and in many regimes doing so before gambling or depositing	Explains the document requests — see KYC
Anti-money-laundering	Due diligence, source-of-funds checks, reporting obligations	Explains why large or unusual activity triggers questions — see AML
Customer funds	How player balances are held, and what disclosure is required about protection if the business fails	Determines what happens to your balance in an insolvency
Complaints	A published procedure, and in some regimes access to independent dispute resolution	The escalation route in complaints
Responsible gambling	Limits, time-outs, reality checks, and participation in self-exclusion schemes	The tools in responsible gambling
Technical standards	Game and random-number-generator testing, and how games must behave	Covered in fairness and RNG testing
Advertising	What may be promoted, to whom, and with what disclosure	Constrains marketing and, in several regimes, is tied to self-exclusion registers
Transparency	Identifying the licensee and displaying licensing information	The information you use to verify — see how to check

Licences are territorial, and this is the most misunderstood point

A licence authorises an operator to serve consumers somewhere. Holding a genuine licence from one authority does not authorise an operator to serve consumers subject to a different one.

The Gambling Commission states the position for Great Britain without qualification: a gambling licence issued in another country does not permit an operator to provide gambling to consumers in Great Britain.

Two practical consequences:

Identify your own regulator first. The regulator directory sets out which authority covers which market.
Then check whether the operator holds that licence — not merely whether it holds one somewhere.

Licence types and categories

Authorities carve up the activities differently, so there is no universal taxonomy. What recurs:

Remote versus non-remote. Online and land-based are generally licensed separately. A company licensed for high-street betting shops is not thereby licensed to run a website.
By activity. Casino, betting, bingo, lotteries and gaming machines are typically distinct, and an operator holds one licence per activity it offers.
Business-to-consumer versus business-to-business. Several regimes license suppliers — software providers, platform operators — separately from the operators facing the public. A B2B authorisation is not permission to take bets from you, and it is occasionally displayed as though it were.
Personal licences. Some authorities license individuals holding specified roles, in addition to licensing the company.

How licences are published, and why that varies so much

Every authority covered here publishes something. What they publish differs enough to change what you can establish, and that difference matters more than the authority’s reputation.

What the registers of the 9 jurisdictions covered here do and do not publish
Register publishes	What you can then establish
The licensee company and its status	That this company is authorised — nothing about any particular website
The domains a licence covers	That this specific website is covered. This is the only way to close that gap
Validity dates	Whether the authorisation was current when you looked
Licence type or activity	Whether the operator is authorised for what it is actually offering you
Enforcement history	Whether the authority has taken action against this licensee

Where a register has no domain field, verification in that jurisdiction can establish that a company holds a licence and then stops. That is a real limit, not a failure of searching — and knowing it prevents false confidence. The directory records which registers publish domains.

Formats vary as much as content: some registers are searchable databases, some are static lists, and at least one is a downloadable document whose filename changes at every update. The licence checker records what each one accepts and how to use it.

The gap between authorisation and conduct

This is the idea the whole site rests on, so it is worth stating directly rather than leaving implied.

A licence is a prospective permission granted against criteria, with conditions attached. Whether the operator then complies is a separate question, answered continuously and imperfectly by supervision. Enforcement registers exist precisely because licensees breach their conditions: the sanctions are evidence of the gap, not evidence that licensing does not work.

What a verified licence establishes, and what it does not
Verified licence establishes	It does not establish
Which rules apply to this operator	That it follows them
Which authority supervises it	That the authority will intervene in your case
That a complaint route exists	That a dispute will be decided in your favour
That player-protection obligations apply	That gambling with it is safe for you
Its status on the day you checked	Its status now — this can change at any time

Common questions

Does a licence mean my money is safe?

No. Licensing regimes typically require operators to disclose how customer funds are held and what would happen if the business failed, and the level of protection differs between regimes and sometimes between operators within one. A licence means that disclosure obligation exists — read what the operator actually discloses.

Is a licence from one country as good as another?

They are not equivalent, and the question that matters is narrower than “which is best”. What matters is whether the licence covers your market, what the register lets you verify, and what recourse exists when a dispute arises. Those differ substantially, and the directory sets out how.

The site says it is "licensed and regulated". Is that meaningful?

Only once you have checked it. The phrase is text on a page and costs nothing to write. What is meaningful is the authority named, the company named, and whether the official register lists that company with this domain in a current status.

Can I see whether an operator has been sanctioned?

In several jurisdictions, yes — enforcement and regulatory-action registers are published, and they record actions against licensees. The jurisdiction pages note where such a register exists.

That sits alongside the older approved-providers page (last updated 15 January 2025), which calls the Commission 'the designated competent authority for gambling' under the 2015 ADR Regulations. The two pages cite different instruments of different vintage; do not write either role as a flat present-tense fact.
