Licensee changes behind casino brands: what the register shows
A casino brand is a name; the licence belongs to a company, and the company behind a brand can change. Our country brief of 6 November 2026 gives a licensee and account number for twelve of the sixteen brand rows below and none for the other four. This note lists the pairs and the gaps. It records no breach and draws no conclusion about conduct.
Brand, licensee and status
The right-hand column stays blank until the live register has been read.

One example: 32Red
In the brief, 32Red Limited is Surrendered, dated 12 March 2025, while the brand 32Red is tied to Platinum Gaming Limited, account 45322. That tie is marked to confirm. It shows how a brand can outlive one company and sit with another. The detail is on the page for Unibet UK and 32Red.
A second example is Sky Bet. The brief records the entry under Bonne Terre Limited, account 38718, as Surrendered on 31 October 2025, and a new entry under SBG Sports Limited, account 67370, as Active from 6 October 2025.
How we checked this
- We took each brand's licensee and account number from the country brief, which recorded them on 6 November 2026.
- We did not open the register cards ourselves for this note.
- We left the brand-licensee link as unconfirmed wherever the brief marks it so.
- We will fill the right-hand column after a live reading, and date each cell.
What we do not say
A change of licensee is not a sign of wrongdoing. Companies are restructured, licences move between group entities, and the register records the result. We do not link any change to the settlements the brief lists. Those have their own page, the regulatory actions snapshot.
What changed
On 13 November 2026 this note was added. The next weekly re-check will compare the live register with the table above and log each difference in the changelog, with the date and the field that changed.
Quick answers
- Why does the licensee behind a casino brand matter?
Because the licence belongs to a company, not to a brand name. The register account shows which company answers for a given web address.
- Which brand changed its licensee in the country brief?
The brief shows Sky Bet moving from Bonne Terre Limited, account 38718, Surrendered 31 October 2025, to SBG Sports Limited, account 67370, Active from 6 October 2025.
- Is 32Red still licensed?
The brief lists 32Red Limited as Surrendered since 12 March 2025, and ties the brand to Platinum Gaming Limited, account 45322. That link needs confirming.
- Does a change of licensee mean something went wrong?
No. Companies reorganise, and licences move between group entities. We draw no conclusion about conduct from a change alone.
