What were the fines for?
Mostly two sets of rules. Of the 71 decisions dated 2025, 15 cite the anti-money laundering condition 12.1.1 and 15 the customer interaction code 3.4.3; of the 38 dated 2026, five and four. Some cases are more specific:
- Evolution: five of its games were found on six unlicensed websites accessible at scale from Great Britain;
- Stakelogic BV: slots running faster than the 2.5-second minimum, £122,835, explained on slot design rules;
- 888 UK Limited: a breach of the self-exclusion code 3.5.3, £86,843;
- QuinnBet (Gibraltar) Limited: financial vulnerability checks among other failings, covered on affordability checks.
Sanction, settlement, suspension: what is the difference?
A sanction is imposed by the Commission, often a financial penalty under section 121 of the Gambling Act 2005 plus a warning and extra licence conditions. A settlement is agreed with the business: it pays an amount in lieu of a penalty, sometimes with a divestment of gains, and a public statement is published. Of the 138 records on the register, 120 are sanctions and 18 settlements. A suspension stops the licence: the most recent suspension decision on the register, dated 8 September 2026, concerns Tom Horn Gaming Limited, a games supplier; what a stopped licence means for customers' balances is on losing a licence. Why a fine leaves the licence in place is explained on our main page.
