Rows are product licences

The Commission publishes separate rows for operation types such as sports betting, online casino, remote interactive games and land-based casino. Atlas counts 68 unique trade names rather than treating all 85 current product rows as separate operators.

Responsible-gaming controls

Commission material identifies KYC checks, warning messages, betting limits and self-exclusion as player-protection controls. These safeguards do not replace the need to confirm a current product licence in the register.
