Scored on the register alone. Safer gambling tool coverage and RTP disclosure are only counted for operators we have tested directly, and this one has not been tested yet, so those weights are excluded rather than guessed. How the score works

Nothing is currently published against this company, so the enforcement component is intact. At 3.4 years the licence is comparatively young, so tenure contributes little; that reflects a short track record rather than anything adverse. No licence has been revoked, so licence standing is unaffected.

Common questions about Gameshop Limited

Is Gameshop Limited licensed in the UK?

Yes. The Gambling Commission lists 2 active operating licences against Gameshop Limited, account number 61756, the earliest running since 22 March 2023. That includes an active remote casino licence, so it is permitted to offer online casino games to British players.

Has Gameshop Limited been fined by the Gambling Commission?

No. There is no regulatory action published against Gameshop Limited on the Commission's register. Sanctions and settlements stay on that register for three years from publication, so this covers decisions since September 2023 rather than the company's entire history.

Who do I complain to about Gameshop Limited?

Start with the operator in writing. If it is unresolved after eight weeks, or you disagree with its final response, the complaint goes to the alternative dispute resolution provider it is signed up to, free of charge. The Gambling Commission does not settle individual disputes and cannot recover your money, though it does use complaint patterns to drive compliance work.

How is the Safety Record score for Gameshop Limited calculated?

From three inputs in the public register, weighted 55 for enforcement burden, 25 for licence standing and 20 for licence tenure, normalised to a mark out of 100. Gameshop Limited scores 85. Safer gambling tool coverage and RTP disclosure are only counted where we have tested a site directly; this operator has not been tested, so those weights are excluded rather than guessed at. No commercial arrangement can change the figure.
