📅 Licensed here since 1 January 2009
🔢 One domain, one trading name, one account
The account number runs to three digits where most British gambling files run to five. The licensee is Fitzdares Limited, and the head office printed on the file is Fitzdares Ltd, 182-184 Campden Hill Road, London, W8 7AS, United Kingdom.
The trading names table has one row: fitzdares, Active. The domain names table has one row: fitzdares.com, Active. Premises and regulatory actions both read zero. Every count matches the total printed above it, checked August 2026, which is not something that holds on every file.
A sister site means a second brand sitting on the same licence, and this one does not carry a second brand. So there is no roster to carry.
📋 What the public file records
Everything on the file apart from the permission list comes to six short entries.
📌 Every entry on the licence, in full
- Licensee: Fitzdares Limited
- Head office: Fitzdares Ltd, 182-184 Campden Hill Road, London, W8 7AS
- Trading names: one, fitzdares, Active
- Domain names: one, fitzdares.com, Active
- Premises: none recorded
- Regulatory actions: none recorded
One domain name means the brand runs from a single address, so a Fitzdares-looking site on any other address is not filed against this company. No premises recorded means no betting shop is attached to the licence.
📜 The five permissions on the licence
The permission summary is the one table on this file that runs to more than a single row. Set out by the date each permission went active, rather than in the order the file prints them, with what each one covers.
📑 What each permission allows, oldest first
- 1 January 2009 — General Betting Standard, Real Event. Remote and Active. Bets on things that actually happen: races, matches, fixtures.
- 5 July 2013 — Pool Betting. Remote and Active. Stakes pooled together and shared out among the winners, rather than settled at odds agreed when the bet is struck.
- 15 June 2016 — General Betting Limited. Non-Remote and Active. Betting taken in person rather than over the internet.
- 11 June 2018 — Casino. Remote and Active. Casino games sold over the internet.
- 12 May 2020 — General Betting Standard, Virtual Event. Remote and Active. Bets on computer-generated events rather than real ones.
The casino permission has been active since June 2018, and Virtuals, Esports, Casino, Fantasy and Live Casino all sit in the top navigation beside Sports, read on the live site in August 2026. Calling Fitzdares a sportsbook with nothing else attached matches neither the licence nor the product.
The non-remote row is the one that does not sit easily with the rest. It is a General Betting Limited licence for land-based betting, dated 15 June 2016, held against a premises count of zero. The file carries the permission and no address to go with it. A permission can be held without being used, so the combination is lawful, but the licence covers betting taken in person and no recorded address is set up to take it.
⚖ What the zero on this licence is worth
Three checks were run on this account and all three came back empty. The sanctions page records no action. The regulatory-actions record returns nothing for fitzdares. A sweep of the Gambling Commission enforcement pages turns up no penalty against Fitzdares Limited.
The actions figure on a licence file counts what is open against a currently licensed account, not what has happened in the past. The same source returns nothing for licensees that have paid seven-figure penalties, because a closed action can drop off a live account, and a surrendered licence resets that figure to zero without removing the file.
- ✅ Accurate: no action has been recorded against this account, and three separate checks in August 2026 found no penalty.
- ❌ Not accurate: reading that as proof nothing ever happened. An empty actions figure is a statement about what is live, not about what a company has done.
🏆 Why Tote is a relative and not a sister
The comparison gets made because both books lead on horse racing. It stops there. The tote.co.uk address sits with TDCO Limited on its own licence, under its own licensee, and a shared focus on racing is not a shared permission.
Pool betting is not the dividing line either. Pool betting is the mechanism Tote is known for, and Fitzdares has held a pool betting permission of its own since 5 July 2013, so pool markets are not what separates the two. What separates them is ownership: two companies, two licences, and nothing filed that connects one to the other.
🎯 Where Fitzdares players go instead
With nothing else on the licence, the alternatives are other operators rather than sister brands. Both below are separate companies on separate licences, and how their own files read is a separate question.
🔗 Four licence files that read very differently
One brand on one licence is unusual. Two of the four below show zero actions for reasons that have nothing to do with good behaviour.
Another single-brand licence, and zero actions listed against £910,000 of published penalties
