UK Casino Sites Licensed by the UK Gambling Commission
Every casino site below holds an active UK Gambling Commission remote licence, checked on the Commission’s public register. Sites without a UKGC licence are deliberately left out, whatever they accept, so this is a list of UKGC-licensed casinos only.
Availability comes from each operator’s published terms and can change without notice. We may earn commissions through operator links. Confirm eligibility with the operator and your local regulator before registering. 18+.

Under the Gambling Act 2005, any operator offering online gambling to consumers in Great Britain needs a remote licence from the Gambling Commission. The licence covers specific domains, so a brand’s UK site can be licensed while its international .com site is not. You can check any site on the public register by searching its exact domain.
A site that accepts UK players without a UKGC licence is operating illegally in Great Britain, and you lose the protections below if something goes wrong.
What a UKGC licence means for you
Age and identity checks must be completed before you can deposit or play.
No credit cards: gambling with a credit card has been banned since April 2020.
Slot stake limits: online slots are capped at £5 a spin, or £2 if you are aged 18 to 24.
Bonus wagering cap: since 19 January 2026, wagering requirements cannot exceed 10 times the bonus.
GAMSTOP: every licensed site must honour the national self-exclusion scheme.
Complaints: if the operator does not resolve a complaint, you can take it to an independent dispute resolution service named in its terms.
What to check before you register
Exact domain. Confirm the site you are on is listed as active for that operator on the register.
Bonus terms. Compare wagering, eligible games, expiry and any cap on winnings, not the headline amount.
Withdrawals. Check the methods, limits and processing times before your first deposit.
Help and self-exclusion
GAMSTOP lets you exclude yourself from every UKGC-licensed online site at once. The National Gambling Helpline, run by GamCare, is free and open 24/7 on 0808 8020 133. See our responsible gaming guide for more tools. 18+.
