How do I know if a betting site is safe and legal in the UK?

Check for a valid UK Gambling Commission licence number in the footer. All sites on our online betting sites list hold current, valid UKGC licences and are fully regulated for UK players.

Can I claim welcome bonuses at more than one betting site?

Yes. Each welcome bonus is limited to one per person per operator, but you can create accounts at multiple sites and claim each one's new customer offer.

What is the minimum age to bet online in the UK?

You must be at least 18 years old to open a betting account or place any wager with a UK-licensed operator.

Are my winnings from betting taxed in the UK?

No. Gambling winnings are not subject to income tax or capital gains tax in the United Kingdom.

What is spread betting and how does it differ from fixed-odds betting?

Fixed-odds betting means you agree a price at the time of placing your wager. Spread betting with operators like Spreadex means your profit or loss depends on how accurate your prediction is.
