24Casino review: licensed abroad, not in Great Britain

24Casino launched in 2024 under a Curacao licence held by Dama N.V. It has no Gambling Commission licence, and the GB register holds no entry for it.

Our verdict

No GB licence

24Casino operates under a Curacao licence held by Dama N.V. and an Estonian listing, but has no Gambling Commission licence for Great Britain.

Worth knowing

  • Not covered by GAMSTOP
  • No access to a UK approved ADR provider
  • No GB stake limits, wagering cap or credit card ban
  • Operator and domain absent from the register

24Casino holds licences abroad but none from the Gambling Commission. The brand launched in 2024 and is run by Dama N.V. under Curacao licence OGL/2023/174/0082, and its main domain also appears on an Estonian licence held by Befuria GO OU. No Commission account covers the brand, either company or the domain.

The brand is marketed to countries such as Canada and Ireland rather than Great Britain. So this 24Casino review does not treat it as a UK casino. It sets out what the missing GB licence means for anyone who meets the name here, and it is written for readers aged 18 and over.

Licensed elsewhere, unlicensed here

Licences are territorial. A Curacao or Estonian authorisation lets a business operate under those rules, but British law looks at where the gambling is used. Section 36 of the Gambling Act 2005 applies the licensing offence to remote gambling used in Great Britain even when no equipment is here, provided the operator knows or should know that British customers are using it. A site serving GB players needs a Commission licence, wherever its head office is.

Three register searches, three blanks

  1. Business name. Neither Dama N.V. nor Befuria GO OU has a Commission account.
  2. Trading name. 24Casino is not among the 2,410 trading names in the files dated 2 November 2026.
  3. Domain. The brand's domain is not among the 2,211 domains on the register.

For a GB-licensed brand, all three would line up with an Active status and a casino activity. How to check a casino's UK licence shows the same searches for any site.

What a foreign licence does not give a British player

The Commission is plain that GB consumer protections apply only if the business holds its licence. Without one, there is no link to GAMSTOP, no £5 or £2 stake limit on slots, no 10x cap on bonus wagering, no credit card ban and no approved ADR provider when a complaint stalls. That is also why there are no 24Casino bonus, promo code or no-deposit details on this page.

Closing an account you already hold

If you opened an account while abroad, or before you knew its status, ask the operator in writing to close it and return any balance, and keep copies of everything. A UK ADR body cannot step in, so the operator's own terms are the only route; how to complain about a UK casino shows the protected process licensed sites must follow instead. If gambling has stopped feeling under control, GAMSTOP, blocking software and the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 are set out on the responsible gambling page.

Questions readers ask

Are 24Casino's Curacao and Estonian licences valid in the UK?

No. They are authorisations in those places only. The brand holds no Gambling Commission licence, so it is not a lawful or protected option for players in Great Britain.

Does 24Casino have sister sites or an app licensed in the UK?

Dama N.V. runs no brand under a Commission licence, so there is no licensed group to compare it with, and no 24Casino app is approved for Great Britain.

Why is there no 24Casino bonus code here?

Writing up offers from an unlicensed operator for GB readers could amount to advertising unlawful gambling under section 330 of the Gambling Act 2005, and those offers sit outside UK bonus rules.
