Gibraltar: all our coverage

Ireland's gambling regulator has now published 235 notices of intent to apply for a licence, and most of the recent ones come from racecourse and high-street bookmakers whose Revenue licences expire on 30 November. Its own register shows how far it still has to go: one in-person betting licence issued so far.

Kambi has signed the UK and Irish bookmaker to its full outsourced sportsbook at a time when partner migrations are shrinking its European business. The value, the term and the launch date are not disclosed, and QuinnBet's last platform move ended in a Gambling Commission finding.

Betfred's group accounts for the 52 weeks to 29 March 2026 show turnover of £995.6m, online at 45% of it, and a machine duty bill larger than its profit after tax. They close three days before remote gaming duty reached 40%, and arrive weeks before a Budget that could double the duty on shop machines.

Three appeal judges have unanimously reversed the High Court on which law decides whether Georgian rulings stop Spribe reopening copyright ownership and copying in London. It is a procedural win for Aviator LLC, not a finding of infringement, and whether the Georgian rulings bind the English court is still undecided.

The exchange has been meeting regulators in the UK and the EU to argue that its contracts belong to financial supervisors rather than gambling ones, the Financial Times reports, after being blocked in Italy, the Netherlands and France. Britain's Gambling Commission says a prediction market launching here could not classify itself as non-gambling.

The Ladbrokes owner says up to a fifth of its 2,000 customer care roles could go, weeks after an H1 that beat expectations and days after its chief executive wrote to the Prime Minister about machine games duty. The cuts are global; the argument is aimed at 28 October.

Mr Justice Cawson found Entain could not say who drew the Coral and Ladbrokes logos, when, or how it came to own them, eleven months into the case. The trade mark claims over 18 marks go on to trial.

Around 300 of the roles are in Stoke-on-Trent, where bet365 is the biggest private employer, and 40 across Gibraltar and Malta. Voluntary redundancies come first. Every one of the five largest British gambling firms has now cut staff since remote gaming duty rose 19 points.

Two years after splitting itself in half to become a pure technology supplier, GiG is paying €16.4 million for a majority stake in an African operator, funded by an €8.5 million raise it launched the same morning it reported an operating loss of €6.9 million.

The Gambling Commission found a player who placed 4,800 bets in a day and 7,000 the next without triggering a warning, and another who staked more than £215,000 in a single session and was flagged the following morning. The controls existed. They were manual, and they were too slow.

The vote was close to unanimous on the shares, and the scheme now needs only the Gibraltar court. It puts William Hill, 888 and Mr Green into the same group as Bally's Intralot's lottery and gaming technology business, with completion expected late this year or early next.

The Gambling Commission has penalised the operator of betfred.com after social-responsibility gaps allowed a single customer to lose £17,900 in 24 hours, with the regulator branding the shortcomings "unacceptable".

Four years after 888 Holdings, now Evoke, agreed to pay £2.2 billion for William Hill's international assets, the company has agreed an all-share takeover by Bally's Intralot worth about £243.1 million (€281 million). A November 2025 Budget tax shock forced the board's hand.
