How to check a Gambling Commission licence
By the CasinoCue editorial team · Reviewed 2026-11-10
Search the Gambling Commission’s public register for the business name or website address. A licensed operator will show an active licence and the domain you are visiting.
Steps
Find the company name and licence details, usually in the site footer.
Search the public register on the Gambling Commission website and open the matching record.
Confirm the status is active, the activities cover what the site offers, and the website address appears in the record.
If it does not match
If you cannot find the business or the domain, treat the site as unlicensed for Great Britain. Unlicensed sites do not give you the same protections or complaints routes.
