Licence

The size of a deposit has no bearing on the framework a site operates under, and small stakes make that question easy to skip.

Operators serving consumers in Great Britain need a Gambling Commission licence; Northern Ireland has its own legislation. The section covers non-UKGC operators, offshore and international brands and the Malta, Gibraltar, Curaçao and Anjouan licences.

Two things hold regardless of the amount: winnings are not taxed in the player’s hands, and offering unlicensed gambling to Britain is the operator’s offence rather than the player’s.
