Overview
Operator Type: Online casino and sports betting operator
Betway Limited is a Malta-based online gambling operator that has held UKGC licences continuously since 1 November 2014, covering casino games, sports betting on real events, and betting on virtual events. It operates several consumer-facing brands in the UK, including its flagship betway.com, Jackpot City, Spin Casino, and Hippodrome Online.
Its trust score of 76 (Grade B) reflects a clean enforcement record across over 11 years of UKGC licensing, which earns it a full enforcement score and a stability score of 100. The corporate score is zero, as no officer or beneficial ownership data is available in public records for Betway Limited as a Maltese entity.
Customer review data is a concern. Betway.com carries a Trustpilot rating of 1.4 from nearly 18,000 reviews, and hippodromeonline.com sits at 1.6 from over 100 reviews. That volume of negative feedback is worth weighing against the clean compliance record.
Where Is This Operator Based?
Understanding where an operator is based matters for regulatory accountability. UK-based operators are subject to UK courts and consumer protection laws.
This operator is headquartered in Malta, a jurisdiction with established gambling regulation. Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) is one of Europe's most respected gambling regulators. While not UK-based, the UKGC licence ensures UK consumer protections apply.
