Overview
888casino is the casino arm of the 888 group, which also runs 888poker and 888sport. This profile looks at the brand for players in Great Britain.
It is desk research. Licence facts come from the Gambling Commission public register. We were unable to open 888casino’s own help and banking pages with our research tools, so several operator details are marked as gaps rather than filled from third-party sites. We have not opened an account or played.
Licence and ownership
The register lists 888 UK Limited under account number 39028. It holds active remote licences for casino, bingo and general betting (real and virtual events). The casino licence is recorded from 1 November 2014.
888casino.com and 888.co.uk both appear as active domains on that account, alongside 888poker and 888sport domains. The trading name on the register is 888. You can search the register yourself by business name, domain or account number.
The register shows three regulatory actions against account 39028. We have not summarised them here; readers should open the register entry and read each public statement before deciding whether to play.
Games
We could not load 888casino’s lobby or help pages, so we have not confirmed the current game range from the operator. We would rather say that plainly than repeat lists from affiliate sites, which can be out of date.
If you are comparing casinos, check the lobby for the categories that matter to you, for example slots, live dealer tables, roulette and blackjack. Any online slots offered to British players must follow the national stake limits described below.
Payments and withdrawals
We have not confirmed 888casino’s UK payment methods or withdrawal times from an operator page. A banking page on 888sport.com, run by the same licensee, mentions a UK withdrawal policy and lists debit cards and Apple Pay among UK options, but the page mixes several regional versions and is not specific to the casino. We have not relied on it.
What is certain is the national rule set. Credit cards have been banned for gambling in Great Britain since 14 April 2020, so deposits will come from debit cards, e-wallets or bank-based methods. Before depositing, read the withdrawal policy on your account and check how long requests can stay pending while documents are reviewed.
Player protection and support
The Gambling Commission requires online operators to verify a customer’s age and identity before any gambling takes place. A business cannot make those checks a condition of withdrawing money if it could have asked for them earlier.
Online slot stakes are capped at £5 per spin for players aged 25 and over and £2 for those aged 18 to 24. These limits took effect on 9 April and 21 May 2025.
GAMSTOP, a free multi-operator self-exclusion scheme, lets people in Great Britain block gambling websites and apps run by GB-licensed businesses for a period they choose.
We have not confirmed 888casino’s support channels or hours from its own pages. Check the help section after logging in.
Our view
888casino has a clear licence position: the register links 888casino.com to 888 UK Limited with an active casino licence. That is the key starting point.
The gaps are on the operator side. Before signing up, read the three regulatory actions on the register, check the cashier for available payment methods, and read the withdrawal terms in full. This is an 18+ product.
