Changelog

Every change to our licence pages, newest first. Each line links to the page it touched, and each fact on that page links to the regulator source we read. Last change .

  • Search. Search now also finds licence holders whose register lists no website, about 3,700 companies such as UK bingo and arcade operators, with the licences each register shows for them.
  • New Zealand. New page on New Zealand's Online Casino Gambling Act 2026 and the 11 companies the Department of Internal Affairs named on 13 October 2026 as winners of the right to apply for a licence. No licence has been granted yet, and search shows each of these companies with that status.
  • Search. PSCWin, a casino advertised in Spain since 18 October 2026, now shows in search. It cites Anjouan license ALSI-202504012-FI1 of Creative Solution Limited, which is real but does not list pscwin888.com or pscwin.com.
  • Italy. Each ADM online concession is now its own record with its own number. E-play 24 Ita Limited, for example, holds 16004 for eplay24.it, 16005 for sportium.it and 16006 for betwin360.it, which were all shown as 16004 before. Search also finds the 95 companies on the ADM list of active land-based bingo halls at 31 December 2025, with their halls, and says that a bingo hall concession does not cover online gambling.
  • Philippines. The register now uses PAGCOR's lists of 8 October 2026, 70 companies with 497 registered website addresses, among them betano.ph and kkbet.ph, plus the PAGCOR Guarantee sites that are on no list.
  • Philippines. Philippine cards now name the company from PAGCOR's lists of 8 October 2026 where the website is on them, 58 of 74 sites. A licensed resort casino is shown as the licensee, a platform company as the gaming system administrator.
  • Search. A search for Cirsa Retail S.r.l. now explains that the company holds three land-based bingo hall concessions in Italy and no online concession, and points to E-play 24 Ita Limited, which runs Cirsa's online sites in Italy.
  • Search. A typed web address now finds its brand even with a different ending or a hyphen, for example bc-game.cam finds BC.Game, and says when that address is not among the licensed ones. Betnesta, which cites a real Curacao license that does not list its address, now shows with that notice. Zamba in Colombia and ZambaBet in Anjouan are shown as two brands, and BC.Game as one.
  • Philippines. Added the PAGCOR Guarantee list of authorised online gaming websites, 74 sites with their game categories, and a new page on how to check a Philippine licence.
  • New Jersey. Added the Division of Gaming Enforcement lists of approved Internet gaming and online sports pool sites, 9 casino licensees and 2 racetracks, with permit numbers from the DGE permit holder list, and a new page on how to check a New Jersey licence.
  • Pennsylvania. Added the Gaming Control Board lists of online casino, sports wagering and poker brands with their certificate holders, and a new page on how to check a Pennsylvania licence.
  • Colombia. Added the licensed game types for Betplay, Betano and Rivalo, read from their scanned Coljuegos contracts, so all 14 Colombian operators now show the games their contract covers.
  • Search. Search now finds casinos by the company number printed in the Malta, Bulgaria, Czech Republic and Latvia registers. An old Curacao sub-license number such as 8048/JAZ, a Costa Rican company ID or an unknown Maltese company number now gets an explanation and a link to the right country page instead of an empty result.

  • Colombia. Search now shows domains from the Coljuegos list of illegal gambling websites of 30 September 2026 when they carry the name of a brand licensed in one of our registers, 4,822 domains under 2,721 brands, many of them look-alike addresses.
  • Colombia. Added the Coljuegos register of authorised online gambling operators, 14 companies with concession contracts, each with its contract number and, where the contract text is readable, the games it covers. New page on how to check a Colombian licence.
  • Search. Search now finds casinos by the licence holder company or the licence number, as printed in a casino's footer. For example, "New Era B.V." or "OGL/2024/181/0181" lists the 24 casinos licensed through that company.
  • Denmark. Replaced the line about an unlimited number of licences with the count Spillemyndigheden published for 2025, 27 betting licences and 41 online casino licences.

  • Netherlands. Corrected the deposit rule. Above EUR 700 a month, or EUR 300 for players under 24, the operator must check that the player can afford it and restrict the account if it cannot reach the player. Added the eight follow-up licences that run from October 2026 to September 2031, the 37.8% gambling tax in force since 1 January 2026, and the government decision of June 2026 to keep the age limit unchanged for now.
  • Malta. Gaming tax of 15% for Type 1 games and 10% for Types 2 to 4 has applied since 1 October 2026, for online players who live in Malta. The fixed licence fee is EUR 25,000 per licence, and share capital requirements add up across game types to a cap of EUR 240,000.

  • Sweden. Since a 2025 amendment the state licence covers gaming machines and certain lotteries only. Spelpaus counted more than 144,000 self-excluded people. Payout disputes go to the National Board for Consumer Disputes.
  • Denmark. Rewrote the complaint route. Complaints go to the operator, then to the Mediation Team for Consumer Complaints and the Consumer Complaints Board. Shop betting pays the same 28% duty as online betting.
  • Isle of Man. The register lists 50 licence holders. Only players outside the UK can take a complaint to the Gambling Supervision Commission. Added the Token Based Software licence.
  • Gibraltar. The register has 68 entries. Licence holders under the 2005 Act carried over automatically. Added the 2026 duty rates and licence fees, the complaint form and the new prediction market register.

  • Romania. ONJN describes itself as a body under the Government of Romania. Added the self-exclusion procedure and the count of 61,473 self-excluded people.
  • Alberta. The grey market transition ended on 13 October 2026. The AGLC listing named 41 iGaming operator entries.
  • Search results. A licence whose expiry date in the register has passed, while its status still reads current, now shows both facts side by side.
  • Curacao seal. Checks now start from the licence number, since the CGA warned that its seal may not open while it replaces its portal.
  • Curacao. The CGA ended the orange seal of the old sub-licence system on 15 October 2025. Added how a not valid certificate and a revoked licence page read on cert.cga.cw.
  • Italy. The ADM list of blocked gambling sites valid from 29 October 2026 holds 13,079 domains. Since ADM Determina 675265 of 22 October 2026, game accounts may only be funded with traceable payment instruments.
  • Germany. Each Land taxes and licenses online casino table games under its own law. North Rhine-Westphalia allows up to five concessions and taxes them at 30 percent of gross gaming revenue.
  • Spain. Players can complain to the DGOJ when the operator gives no answer within one month or an unsatisfactory one.
