Betting sites & exchanges
Bonuses make a bookmaker look attractive, but a promotion proves nothing about licensing. The Gambling Commission public register is the test applied here.
Sites that run on .com addresses can be fully licensed, so the address tells nothing. The section covers best, new and independent bookies, exchanges under the betting intermediary licence, spread betting platforms, and high-limit and no-limit sites.
Sports betting has no statutory stake cap that has been established; operators choose their own maximum stakes.
