888 UK Limited is the company named on the Gambling Commission's public register for the brand 888casino. Its account number is 39028, and its licence number is 039028-R-319297-014. This page covers what that licence allows, which brand on this site belongs to it, and the three sanctions the register shows. The record was read on 9 November 2026.
What the licence covers
The register lists four activities on this licence, each with a start date.
- Casino, from 1 November 2014. This is the activity for remote casino games such as slots, roulette and card games played online.
- Bingo, from 1 November 2014. It covers remote bingo games.

- General Betting Standard, Virtual Event, from 16 April 2020. This covers betting on simulated events such as virtual racing.
You can read more on remote casino licences and the licence types guide. A single account can carry several activities under one licence number, which is why this holder can run casino, bingo and betting products together.
Brands and domains
The directory brand matched to this account is 888casino, whose domain is 888casino.com. The register lists 16 domains against the holder in total. Among them are 888.com, 888.co.uk, 888sport.com, 888poker.com, 777.com and betyoucan.com. The register also records the trading name 888.
We do not list every domain here, because the facts panel on this page shows them. The point for a player is that one holder is accountable for all of them. If you meet an 888 domain you do not recognise, check that it appears on the register under account 39028 before you create an account there.
Sanctions history
The register shows three actions against 888 UK Limited, all recorded as sanctions with the outcome of a financial penalty.

The dataset behind this page records no amounts for these three entries, so we do not give one. The Commission's published action notice for each date is the place to read the amount and the reasons. Our UKGC fines and sanctions page explains how the Commission uses penalties, settlements and licence conditions.
What this means for a player
Three financial penalties in about fifteen months are a fact about the holder's compliance record, and you can weigh it as you see fit. A penalty is a regulatory outcome: it does not mean your funds are at risk, and it does not by itself change the licence status. It does mean the regulator found failings serious enough to act on, and you can read the notices to see which rules were involved.
The protections you hold as a customer of a UKGC licensee remain in place. These include GAMSTOP self-exclusion, the stake limits on online slots (£5 per spin at 25 and over, £2 for ages 18 to 24), the 10x cap on wagering requirements and the complaint route through the operator and then ADR. The affordability checks page explains what you may be asked to provide.
