Checked against the UK Gambling Commission public register on 9 November 2026. An independent site, not the Gambling Commission. How we work.

Petfre (Gibraltar) Limited holds licence 039544-R-319290-010 under account number 39544. Betfred is the brand in this directory that belongs to it. This page uses the register as read on 9 November 2026 to set out the licence, the brand and domains, and the two regulatory actions recorded against the holder.

The licence activities

The register shows five activities, each starting on 1 November 2014.

  • Casino. Remote casino games such as slots and roulette.
  • Bingo. Remote bingo.
  • Pool Betting. Betting where stakes go into a pool that is divided among winning entries.
  • General Betting Standard, Real Event. Betting on real events, such as football or racing.
  • General Betting Standard, Virtual Event. Betting on simulated events.

Five activities under one licence means the holder covers a broad set of products. The licence types guide describes each category, and the remote casino page explains the one that brought this holder into the directory.

Brands and domains

The matching directory brand is Betfred, on betfred.com. The register lists two other domains on the account, betfred.mobi and oddsking.com, and one trading name, betfred.com. Because the register ties these names to one holder, a complaint about any of them goes to the same company.

You can compare this with holders that run many more domains, such as LC International Limited, through the operators hub.

Sanctions history

The register shows two actions against Petfre (Gibraltar) Limited.

Date Type Outcome Amount
30 June 2026 Settlement Public statement, Commission costs and payment in lieu of financial penalty £900,000
20 May 2025 Sanction Financial penalty Not stated in our data

The settlement is the more recent and larger of the two. The register records the amount of £900,000 against it. A payment in lieu of a financial penalty is the money element of a settlement, agreed with the Commission instead of a penalty imposed after a contested process. A public statement is published alongside such a settlement, and Commission costs are the regulator's own costs in the case.

The 20 May 2025 entry is a financial penalty with no amount in our data. Do not assume a figure. The Commission's notice for the date gives it. For the wider picture of how settlements and sanctions work, see UKGC fines and sanctions.

What this means for a player

Two actions in about thirteen months is a pattern you can note. It is a fact about the holder's record, not a verdict on any individual player's experience. A settlement does not end a licence. The register shows whether a licence is active, and an entry of this kind is one reason to read the Commission's notice before you decide how much to rely on the brand.

The protections you hold as a customer are unchanged while the licence is active.

  1. GAMSTOP self-exclusion across licensed sites. See the GAMSTOP page.
  2. Stake caps on online slots, £5 per spin at 25 and over and £2 for ages 18 to 24.
  3. Wagering caps of 10x.
  4. Complaints to the operator, then ADR.
  5. Limits and affordability checks. See affordability checks.

Checking the record yourself

  1. Open the Commission's public register.
  2. Search for account number 39544, or the name Petfre (Gibraltar) Limited.
  3. Check that the licence number is 039544-R-319290-010 and that the licence is active.
  4. Open the regulatory actions area. You should find the two entries in the table above.
  5. Open each notice and read the findings, the amount and any requirements placed on the holder.

How to check a UKGC licence explains what each field on the register means.

Questions readers ask

How much was the Petfre (Gibraltar) Limited settlement?

The register records a settlement dated 30 June 2026 with an amount of £900,000. The outcome lists a public statement, Commission costs and a payment in lieu of a financial penalty. The split between those parts is not given in our data, so read the Commission's published notice for the breakdown and the reasons.

What is the difference between a sanction and a settlement?

A sanction is a penalty the Commission imposes after its process. A settlement is an agreement between the Commission and the licensee, usually with a payment in lieu of a financial penalty, costs and a public statement. Both are recorded on the public register. Neither of them, on its own, ends a licence.

Which brand does this holder run?

The directory brand matched to account 39544 is Betfred, on betfred.com. The register also lists betfred.mobi and oddsking.com against the account, and the trading name betfred.com. All three domains are the responsibility of the one licence holder.

What happened on 20 May 2025?

The register records a sanction on that date with the outcome of a financial penalty. The data behind this page gives no amount for it, so none is stated. The Commission's published notice for that date is the place to read the amount and the findings.

Does the settlement mean my money at Betfred was at risk?

The register entry records the outcome, not a finding about any one customer's money. To understand what the Commission found and which rules were involved, read its published notice for 30 June 2026. This page restates the register fields only and does not interpret the notice.
