Who holds the casino licence?
The company behind each casino counter, its licence number, and how to check it on the register.
A bookmaker needs a betting licence from the Gambling Commission to take bets, and a casino licence to offer slots and table games. Usually one company holds both on a single licence; sometimes the group splits them.
At Sky Bet the two counters belong to different companies within one group: one holds the betting licence, another the casino licence. You still log in once, but the casino’s terms name the casino company, and that is the company a complaint about a casino game is made to.

Check it yourself
- Find the licence holder’s name in the bookmaker’s footer or terms; it is usually in the first lines.
- Search the Gambling Commission’s public register for that name or account number.
- Open the record and look at the licence activities (betting, casino) and the list of domain names the business has declared.
- If the address you are on is not in that list, ask the bookmaker why before you deposit.
