Overview

Operator Type: Gambling software and platform provider

Bede Gaming Limited is a technology company that provides software and platforms for the online gambling industry. It was incorporated on 30 May 2012 and is registered as an active company with UK Companies House. The company's main business isn't operating its own gambling sites for consumers. Instead, it creates the underlying technology that other online casinos and bingo brands use to run their services.

The UK Gambling Commission first licensed the company on 15 October 2012. Bede Gaming Limited has maintained a continuous licence since that date. It holds three different types of remote licences, which reflect its role as both a software supplier and an operator.

According to Companies House records, the company is controlled by its parent company, Bede Gaming (Holdings) Limited. Current directors include Colin Cole-Johnson and John James Dougal. The company has no history of regulatory action from the UKGC, which is a positive indicator for a long-standing licensee.

While the company holds licences to operate casino and bingo games, it doesn't appear to run any consumer-facing brands directly. This is common for platform providers who need operator licences to manage games and services on behalf of their clients.
