Researching betting sites
The Board’s 2026 register, updated with records dated 31 August, separates online betting from land-based betting. The ForteBet and Premier Bet rows cited above cover retail general betting; they do not establish online permissions. Check current registration, payment and identity requirements directly, including any fees and limits shown in the local cashier.
