Regulation in Great Britain

UK Gambling Commission (UKGC)

Online gambling for customers in Great Britain is regulated by the UK Gambling Commission. Every operator must hold a valid licence if it wants to legally offer casino products to players in GB.

What the UKGC does

The UK Gambling Commission is the regulator that oversees gambling in Great Britain. It sets rules for how licensed operators should treat customers, handle money, market their products and support safer play.

In simple terms, the UKGC:

  • Issues and can revoke licences for gambling operators.
  • Publishes rules and guidance that licensed operators must follow.
  • Can take action if an operator breaks its rules or treats customers unfairly.

Gambling always involves risk. Only play if you are 18+ and can afford to lose the money you stake. If it stops feeling fun, stop completely and get support.
