Betfair's legal status depends on the market, entity, domain and product. Atlas records licensed relationships in Great Britain, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Ireland and Malta. Brazil is under review during the MP 1.394/2026 shutdown transition; its earlier SPA record is historical authorisation evidence. Buenos Aires City and Alderney are not listed, and Romania remains under review after its last confirmed term ended on 31 August 2026.

Read licensed records separately from review holds
Atlas records six licensed markets. Brazil's earlier federal authorisation record is under review during the shutdown transition, and Romania is under review after the last confirmed term. Availability depends on the local entity, domain and product.
Great Britain: six UKGC business results need interpretation
The UKGC search returns six Betfair-related business records. Five show a matching Betfair consumer or prediction domain; Betfair Limited is a separate record with no matching domain. Counting rows alone would overstate the consumer licence picture.
UK Gambling Commission business registerSpain: check both domain and product licence
The DGOJ record connects Betfair International Spain SA to betfair.es and apuestas.betfair.es and lists distinct permissions for betting, betting exchange, poker and casino products.
DGOJ Betfair International Spain recordBrazil: historical SPA identity and domain
The pre-measure SPA table links NSX Betfair Brasil S.A., authorisation 248 of 7 February 2025, to betfair.bet.br. This identifies the earlier Brazilian record and does not establish unrestricted current operation or authorise betfair.com for Brazil.
SPA pre-measure authorisation tableBrazil: shutdown transition and review hold
MP 1.394/2026 introduced a nationwide fixed-odds shutdown transition on 25 September 2026. Atlas holds the Brazilian relationship under review; the prior SPA entry does not establish an exemption from the new restrictions.
MP 1.394/2026 - fixed-odds shutdown transitionAtlas currently records Betfair as licensed or authorised in 6 markets: Great Britain, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Ireland, Malta.
4 additional records cover restricted, revoked, under-review or not-listed status. A missing register record does not, by itself, prove that an operator is illegal.
Products recorded: Sports betting, Betting exchange, Casino, Poker. Status is jurisdiction- and product-specific; the latest displayed verification is 2026-10-26. Follow the official source in each market record before making a decision.

Source-backed positive-status records
6 recorded markets currently have a licensed or authorised status and primary-source evidence. This does not by itself prove a live consumer domain, current availability or approval for a commercial placement. No live affiliate offer is active on this profile.
How the gate worksName the jurisdictions, products and exact domains you need checked. A private review can connect the operator to its local entity and source records while keeping gaps and conflicting evidence visible.
Markets, outputs, evidence cut-off and fee are agreed in the written scope.
