Overview
Gambling Connection: V-TECK UK LIMITED holds an active UKGC gambling operator licence first issued in May 2024, qualifying it as a regulated gambling operator in the UK market.
V-TECK UK LIMITED was incorporated on 21 December 2015, giving it just over a decade of corporate history. Its SIC code (62012) classifies it as a business activity in the IT services sector, though its connection to the gambling industry comes through its UKGC operating licence. The company carries an A+ company score of 93, reflecting active status, transparent ownership records, and a majority of UK-resident directors.
The company's governance structure shows a mix of UK and international directors, with two of three current directors resident in the United Kingdom. Ownership is split between a corporate shareholder and an individual, both registered since September 2016. No outstanding charges appear against the company, and its confirmation statement is up to date.
Despite its IT services classification, V-TECK UK LIMITED's entry into the UKGC-regulated market came relatively recently, with its first licence dating to 21 May 2024. It has been licensed for under two years, which makes it one of the newer participants in the regulated UK gambling space.
Governance
The board currently has three active directors, two of whom are UK residents. Ownership is disclosed via two persons with significant control: one corporate entity and one individual, both notified from September 2016. The presence of corporate PSC ownership adds a layer of group structure above the company.
