🎲 Carousel Amusements Limited

This company is a gambling operator in Great Britain holding an operating licence from the Gambling Commission. It is authorised to offer non-remote gambling activities associated with gaming machines in amusement environments. According to public regulatory and corporate records, it has been active under this regulatory framework since at least 2009 and remains authorised to operate.

The company is incorporated in the United Kingdom under the name Carousel Amusements Limited with company number 05740395. Companies House records indicate that it files statutory accounts and confirmation statements in line with UK company law. Available public information does not indicate that it forms part of a wider gambling group or that it has a disclosed parent company in the gambling sector. No public sources consulted identify any changes of control, mergers, or acquisitions involving this entity.

The business operates in the land‑based amusements sector. Open-source descriptions of its activities indicate that it focuses on family entertainment centres and amusement arcades. Typical products in this segment include low‑stake gaming machines and amusement‑only machines such as coin pushers, crane grabbers with toy prizes, and ride-on simulators. These activities place it within the category of operators that combine gambling‑style machines with broader family amusements, rather than large‑scale casino, betting, or bingo operations.

Licensing and Operations

The Gambling Commission’s public register lists this company as holding an operating licence with active status. The licence type is for non‑remote gambling operations, covering the provision and management of gaming machines in permitted premises. In regulatory terms, this aligns with categories such as adult gaming centres or family entertainment centres, where licensed gaming machines and amusement machines are made available to the public.

A non‑remote operating licence from the Gambling Commission authorises the holder to make gaming machines available for use in Great Britain, subject to stake and prize limits and to premises being appropriately permitted or licensed under the Gambling Act 2005. In practice, this enables the company to operate arcades and similar venues where customers can use gaming machines on-site. There is no indication in the public register that it holds remote (online) casino, betting, or bingo licences.

The operator appears in the Commission’s full register of gambling businesses and is listed with an active account and licence. No information in the consulted sources indicates that its operating licence has been suspended, revoked, or surrendered. No additional licence types, such as betting, bingo, or casino, are referenced in the available regulatory data.

Regulatory History

A review of the Gambling Commission’s public register and available news and enforcement materials did not identify any published regulatory sanctions, fines, or formal warnings relating specifically to this operator. There is no record in the consulted sources of licence suspension, revocation, or agreed regulatory settlements involving the company.

The absence of such references in public enforcement summaries indicates that, as of the latest available information, there have been no publicly reported enforcement actions by the Gambling Commission against this licensee beyond routine regulatory supervision applicable to all licensed operators.
