Betting sites & exchanges
Behind every betting app stands an operator, and an app store listing says nothing about its licence. This section turns to the companies themselves.
Newer and long-established bookmakers, independents, high-limit and no-limit sites, spread betting platforms and exchanges are covered. An exchange runs under the betting intermediary licence. Maximum stakes are an operator matter, as no cap on sports betting stakes is established in statute.
A .com web address is no proof of anything, because licensed operators use them too. Whether a brand is licensed is shown by the Gambling Commission’s public register.
