Regulation
What UK players need to know.
The United Kingdom Gambling Commission (UKGC) regulates all online casinos accepting British players. Operators without a UK license are illegal to advertise to UK residents, regardless of where they are licensed elsewhere.
Under the 2024 Gambling Act amendments, all licensed casinos must integrate with GAMSTOP self-exclusion, disclose bonus terms in plain English on the cashier page, and cap autoplay at 100 spins per session. We track compliance quarterly.
