Casino Remote, defined from the register
Casino Remote is the activity the Gambling Commission register shows for a business that is licensed to offer casino games, including slots, online. This applies to the register's entries as of 13 November 2026. Whether a given site is covered depends on the licensee's activities line and on the domain's status, so read both.

What the activity covers
The register lists the activities each business holds. Casino Remote is the one for remote casino games and slots.
Other activities appear as separate lines, for example General Betting Standard (Real Event Remote, for sport), Virtual Event, Pool Betting and Bingo. Casino games do not sit under the betting lines.
Where to find it on an entry
- Search the register by business name, trading name, domain or account number.
- Open the card and read the licence status. Active is the only status we accept.
- Read the activities line for Casino Remote, with its From and To dates.
- Check the domain's status on the domain names page.

What the line does not tell you
Casino Remote says nothing about table rules, limits or a studio. Those come from the provider and the operator.
The slots stake limit is tied to the remote casino licence but applies to slots only. See why the slots stake limit is not a blackjack limit. For who oversees the sector, see who regulates live blackjack in Great Britain.
