Full Details
The UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) announced a Regulatory Settlement with TSE Malta LP and three related companies on 17 December 2025. The companies, which operate under the Betfair and Paddy Power brands, will make a total payment of £2 million in lieu of a financial penalty. This action came after a compliance assessment in April and May 2024.
The UKGC's review found that the operators had weaknesses in their social responsibility procedures. Specifically, all four licensees failed to follow the rules for remote customer interaction (SRCP 3.4.3). A regulatory settlement is an agreement where an operator accepts failings and agrees to a penalty package to avoid a formal hearing. It doesn't absolve the company, but it resolves the case with a public statement detailing the issues.
Key Findings
- Total payment of £2 million as part of a regulatory settlement.
- Failures in social responsibility controls for remote customer interaction (SRCP 3.4.3).
- Action concluded on 17 December 2025.
- The settlement involved TSE Malta LP and three other related licensees.
