ProgressPlay Casinos

📋 Who holds the licence

The licensee is ProgressPlay Limited, and the public file in Britain gives its head office as Kolonakiou 26 in Agios Athanasios, Limassol, Cyprus. The sites themselves print something different at the foot of the page. When they were read on 7 August 2026, casino77.com and the rest were still carrying a Malta block - an office on Elia Zammit Street in St Julians, the company number filed there, and a Malta Gaming Authority permission whose date reads 16 April 2013. Two countries, two documents, both set down here with their dates and neither declared the winner.

One figure on the file is stranger than the address mismatch. The trading-names counter reads nought. An operation with a hundred and ninety addresses has not recorded a single trading name, which means every brand identity it carries lives in the address column alone. For comparison, Skill On Net files fifty-two names against sixty addresses. Nothing else about the company appears at all: no premises, no machines, no shops on a high street. The whole business is delivered over the internet.

🔢 A counter and a table that disagree

The heading above the address list counts 194. The list itself prints 193 lines. Take out the duplicates and 190 distinct addresses are left, because three of them appear twice over. Two are plain repeats: caspbet.com twice, Inactive both times, and razzy.uk twice, also Inactive both times. The third is odder. acedbet.com is filed once as Inactive and once as White Label, simultaneously, on the same licence.

One line cannot be opened at all, because it is not an address. The file prints megafoorball - no dot, no ending - a typing slip left uncorrected in the public record beside its correctly spelled neighbour megafootball.bet.

🔍 What answered when the addresses were opened

On 12 August 2026 every Active and every White Label address was opened in a browser. Sixteen of the sixty-seven Inactive ones were opened the same day. The other fifty-one were not opened, so nothing is claimed about them.

Of the twenty Active addresses, eighteen answered with trading casinos or sportsbooks. Two answered with nothing whatever - lumoslots.com and sunnycasino.com, live on the file with no site behind either. An Active line records what the licensee is permitted to use, not what actually exists. Of the 103 White Label addresses, ninety-seven answered with trading sites, and the six that did not each failed differently: 777tigers.com serves a note saying it is not published, betelite.com parks at a Spanish hosting company, moneyplay.com loads a page carrying its own name and nothing else, acedbet.com returns a country block, spinzwin.com sits behind a security wall, and mobilewins.co.uk gave an access-denied notice on the first attempt and an empty page on the second.

The sixteen Inactive addresses opened were mostly what the word suggests: eight answered nothing and three served blank pages. The other five did not. nagsbet.com prints a closure notice with a support address on it. supacasino.co.uk, the line behind the Supa Casino write-up on this site, answers nothing. fruityking.co.nz still trades to New Zealand under the Fruity King name. aceluckycasino.com answers with a casino-styled page offering five languages. And caspbet.com forwards into betzi.co, a brand this same licence still files at play.betzi.co. Inactive means the address has been taken off the permission. It does not always mean the address is dead.

💼 The twenty names kept under its own flag

The Active column is the closest this operation comes to trading as itself, and it is small - twenty lines against more than a hundred for partners. Opened one at a time, they sort into five groups. bubble.bingo is a bingo and casino shop under its own name. casinomite.com is a casino, and one of the few Active lines whose tab wording spells out the British licensing arrangement. placebet.co.uk, pushbet.co.uk and betsteve.com are three sportsbooks running one identical template between them. 21betscasino.com pairs a casino and a sportsbook on a layout of its own.

Then come the shared skeletons. playmagical.com, scorchingslots.com, quidslots.com, yokocasino.com, luckyprocasino.com, anytimecasino.com and lottozone.com are casino fronts on the newer of the two, while glimmercasino.com, mobilemillions.co.uk, mobileslots.com, quartzcasino.co.uk and ukslots.com run the older one. The three sportsbooks are the only visible use of the real-event betting permission the licence added in December 2018; nothing on the Active list was taking bets before that date.

🔧 One platform, many brand names

Most of what this licence carries is not ProgressPlay branding at all. A partner brings a name and a front page; the permission, the cashier, the compliance operation and the games stay put. That is why casino77.com and hippozino.com are filed as partner addresses even though both are complete, working casinos. To a player the distinction is thin - every address here answers to one licensee and one self-exclusion database.

Opening them one after another makes the shared build obvious. Dozens of the sites carry one identical skeleton, a menu reading casino, sports, live and bingo with a deposit banner underneath, where only the logo and one headline figure change from site to site. A second, older skeleton runs beneath another group, and four of its tenants - MrMobi, MrSlot, MrSuperPlay and MrJackvegas - open tabs whose wording is identical down to the last word except for the name itself. None of that shows up in the paperwork; only opening the sites reveals it.

The Commission has twice put its own number on the size of the operation: 201 websites in May 2022, and 134 in August 2025. The list today holds 193 lines. Partner brands arrive, close and are replaced, and the platform underneath them does not move.

🎯 The bingo wing, barely two years old

Bingo is the newest line on this licence, dated 23 August 2024, and a whole wing has grown on it already. Chit Chat Bingo, Panda Bingo, Queens Bingo, Wombat Bingo, Vampire Bingo and uk-bingo.net all answered on 12 August with bingo-first sites sharing a single design, with room lists and slot shelves alongside. One of them says it has run since 2003. That refers to the web address and what it used to be, not to this bingo permission, which is not yet two years old. Six addresses on a permission that new shows how fast this platform can launch a new product.

🌍 Addresses on a British licence that face elsewhere

Not every address filed here is aimed at British players. casinonz.com trades in New Zealand dress and states outright that British players cannot use it. lekkerbets.co.za pitches itself as a South African sportsbook. fruityking.co.nz, filed as out of use, still greets visitors as the official Fruity King site for New Zealand while its British sibling trades here as a partner address. And a run of the partner casinos priced their offers in euros or dollars rather than pounds on the day of the check - Monster Casino, Conquer Casino, Dream Palace, Royal Swipe and iWonVegas among them. The paperwork lists the addresses. It says nothing about who they are aimed at.

🎟 Lottery names on a casino licence

Six partner addresses are not casino brands but lottery ones, of the sort people type from memory. jackpot.com sells entries to official draws. lottery.co.uk, lotto.net, euro-millions.com, irishlottery.com and national-lottery.com serve results, numbers and news. The last of those deserves spelling out: national-lottery.com is not The National Lottery. It describes itself as an independent results service, and it is filed on the licence of a Cyprus-headquartered casino company.

All six carried live pages on 12 August 2026, and jackpot.com, the most developed of them, led its British page with Powerball - an American draw - above the home fixtures. Anyone typing one of these six addresses expecting an official lottery operator reaches, on the paperwork, a casino company based in Cyprus.

❓ Names that look related and are not

Search the business list for supa and two separate licences come back. One is this one, reached through supabet.co.uk and supacasino.co.uk. The other belongs to a different company altogether, trading as a pools business, with no connection to ProgressPlay Limited beyond four shared letters. Search dukes or hippozino and this licence answers alone, and the stem progress reaches nothing beyond this licensee. That is unusual: short search terms normally pull in unrelated companies.

Several brands named on this licence look, from outside, like candidates for a write-up of their own and are worth setting straight. Monster Casino trades at monstercasino.com, with no British sibling address left on the list. Vegas Paradise, Fruity King and Casino Kings all answered under their own names. JeffBet trades at jeffbet.net while jeffbet.com is filed out of use. Wombat Casino publishes something no other name on the file does: a warning that copycat sites trade on its name, and that any of them advertising as being outside the national self-exclusion scheme has nothing to do with it.

⚠ Two entries in the enforcement file

One sanction sits on the licence itself, decided 9 May 2025. The full outcome was a financial penalty of £1,000,000 under section 121 of the Gambling Act, a warning under section 117(1)(a), and an extra condition attached to the licence under section 117(1)(b) requiring a third-party audit within six months of the review closing, to test whether the anti-money-laundering and social-responsibility policies were actually being applied. The breaches cited were licence condition 12.1.1 at paragraphs 1 to 3 and licence condition 12.1.2, both on anti-money-laundering, along with social responsibility code provision 3.4.3 at paragraphs 1, 4, 9 and 12, on customer interaction, with two Ordinary Code provisions judged inadequately considered. The failings ran between August 2021 and August 2024. Co-operation and corrective steps were both noted.

What the sanction did not carry matters as much as what it did. There was no suspension and no withdrawal; all three permissions read as current today.

The gap between the two figures is wide. The first action cost £175,718 and the second more than five times that, and the Gambling Commission addressed the repetition directly, its enforcement director warning that repeated breaches would bring increasingly severe action. An operation replacing partner brands at this rate owes the same duties at every address it fronts, and the later failings ran for three years across exactly that turnover.

The announcement of the £1,000,000 penalty, published on 21 August 2025, calls it the second time this company has faced enforcement action. The first now survives only in the news archive: an announcement of 17 May 2022 had the company, then running 201 websites, paying £175,718 toward the National Strategy to Reduce Gambling Harms over anti-money-laundering and social-responsibility failings, alongside a £500,000 payment by Jumpman Gaming announced in the same breath. The detailed public statement itemising those 2022 failings has since expired under the three-year publication rule; the announcement itself is still published. Five searches were run on 12 August 2026 and each is reported with its count: the business list on progressplay returned one licence, this one; the stem progress returned the same single licence; the enforcement list on progressplay returned one action, the 2025 sanction; the stem progress returned that same one; and the news search, which finds what public lists forget, returned both announcements above.

👥 One company behind every brand

Whatever name is over the door, the counterparty is ProgressPlay Limited. A complaint about any trading address on this licence is a complaint against that company. Self-exclusion set at one site applies to the operation behind all of them. The terms a player accepts belong to the licensee rather than to the partner whose logo is on the page.

That is what a partner-brand entry means in practice: 190 addresses, one business. Above all of it sits GAMSTOP, the national self-exclusion scheme, which covers every British licensee at once - so a national exclusion reaches all of these addresses together, and the licence-level cover described above sits underneath it.

🔗 Reading on

Four names on this licence have a file of their own here, and each one answers a different question about how the operation works from a player point of view.
