Operator-owned marks identify the named businesses and do not imply partnership or endorsement. Links go directly to listed official domains without campaign tracking. A listed domain and a licensee's activity appear as separate regulator records; they do not prove that every activity is offered at that domain. Neither proves account quality, offer eligibility or availability at your location. Never gamble to recover a loss.
What this guide checks — and what it does not
This comparison is a factual register check, not a scored “best” list. Each example below was included only where the downloaded Gambling Commission data links the exact domain to an Active domain record and the legal account to an Active Remote licence activity relevant to this page. The regulator lists domains and account activities separately; a licence does not confirm each activity at every domain.
A sports-betting activity is not a quality score or a statement about events, prices, markets or outcomes. It only records the named activity on the selected active Remote licence account. The comparison above keeps the same operator, offer, rating, payment and action fields on each card. Where first-party offer or payment terms were checked, a dated summary links straight to the full terms. Blank evidence is labelled, not guessed.
Register-checked examples
The direct domain links have no referral or campaign tags. They make the exact register-listed domain checkable. The entries below are the full underlying licence records, in alphabetical rather than ranked order. A dated promotional summary above is not a guarantee of current eligibility: confirm it on the linked operator page before relying on it.

How to use the register carefully
- Search the exact web address, rather than relying only on a brand name. A business can have more than one listed domain or account.
- Read the account and activity together. The same public-facing domain can be associated with separate licensed entities and activities; bet365’s sports and casino examples on these pages are deliberately shown under different account names.
- Check that the domain, licence status, type and activity are current. The register also provides access to regulatory-action information.
- Do not treat the register as a product review. This guide makes no assessment of odds, bonuses, free bets, game selection, withdrawal speed, payouts, guarantees or player ratings.
Account safety and support
Every card is labelled not independently account-tested. That means Score Live did not open an account or test verification, deposits, withdrawals, customer service, controls, limits or exclusions. Do not infer the quality or availability of any operator’s account-safety features from an Active register record.
If gambling is causing harm, stop and seek support. The Gambling Commission links to GAMSTOP for eligible UK residents, including Northern Ireland, to block online accounts with Great Britain-licensed operators. GamCare offers support and self-exclusion information, while GambleAware describes blocking options. GamCare lists its free 24-hour helpline as 0808 8020 133.
Frequently asked questions
What does an Active domain entry show?
For this guide, it means the exact domain was marked Active in the Gambling Commission register download checked on 5 October 2026 and was linked there to the displayed account. Statuses can change, so check the live Public Register before relying on it.
Does an active Remote licence mean this guide tested an account?
No. The guide is not independently account-tested. It does not assess registration, identity checks, deposits, withdrawals, customer service, safer-gambling tools, odds, bonuses, game performance or any player experience.
How should I check a sports-betting website myself?
Use the Gambling Commission Public Register to search the precise domain and legal account, then read the active Remote licence activities and any regulatory information. Confirm the information at the time you need it; this page is a dated research snapshot, not a live register.
Are these rankings or recommendations?
No. These are alphabetically ordered, source-checked examples, not a complete market list, a tested review or a recommendation. Only offer and payment details corroborated by dated first-party pages are summarised; no player rating, payout-time guarantee or expected outcome is stated.
Where can I find help or take a break?
If gambling is causing harm, GAMSTOP Online is available to eligible people living in the United Kingdom, including Northern Ireland, to block online accounts with gambling companies licensed in Great Britain. Contact GamCare or GambleAware for support; the Gambling Commission also links to self-exclusion guidance. These resources are more important than any comparison.
