Re-checks, updates and corrections
Licences lapse and domains move, so a licence check is only as good as its date. This page records every re-check, every new check and every correction, newest first. When a result changes, we say what changed on the brand’s page and here, rather than quietly replacing the old result.
Update log
| Date | What changed |
|---|---|
| 30 Oct 2026 | Added a terms of use page. Larger tap targets on phones, shorter image descriptions for screen readers, and smaller image files for phones. No findings changed. |
| 29 Oct 2026 | Rewrote the licence checks for Maxim88, BK8, me88 and 96M in a more neutral tone, removing commentary. Every register result, figure and source is unchanged. me88 is now spelled the way the brand writes it. |
| 29 Oct 2026 | Published a data report on the licence claims of 20 brands sold to Malaysians, adding twelve brands checked on 29 October 2026, with the results as a CSV file. |
| 29 Oct 2026 | Added a Chinese edition of every page; four explainers on Curaçao master licences, Anjouan, PAGCOR claims and white-label casinos; and three help guides, on losing money to a casino, help for families and blocking gambling. The BK8 and Maxim88 checks now record that the Curaçao master licence they cite, 365/JAZ, expired on 18 August 2024, and the Maxim88 check that PAGCOR lists “maxim88” among websites it has reported. |
| 29 Oct 2026 | Added a bonus wagering calculator in ringgit and a ten-point copycat-site checklist. Brand cards on the home page and licence-checks page now show each brand’s logo for identification. |
| 28 Oct 2026 | Added licence checks for Maxim88 and 96M. Both returned “Claimed but not found”. Counts across the site changed from six brands to eight. |
| 28 Oct 2026 | First licence checks published for BK8, me88, Stake, 12Play, Winbox and Mega888, with every register read on that date. |
Corrections
No correction has been needed yet. When one is, it will be listed here with the date, the page, what was wrong and what it now says. A correction is different from a re-check. A re-check records that the facts changed. A correction records that we got them wrong.
How re-checks work
Every licence check names the date its sources were read, and every source carries its own read date. When we re-check a brand, we read each register again from the start rather than relying on the last result, and we take fresh screenshots of the register entries. The method is set out on our guide to checking a licence against the regulator’s register, which anyone can follow.
We do not change a result because an operator asks us to. We change it when a primary source, such as the regulator’s own register, shows something different. If you have such a source, it is the fastest way to get a page corrected. The full list of licence checks shows the current result for every brand.
