Licensing and Operations

The company holds an operating licence issued by the Gambling Commission in Great Britain. The licence is non-remote, meaning it covers land-based rather than online gambling activities.

Publicly available regulatory data indicate that the operator is licensed primarily for Adult Gaming Centre activities. This authorises it to make available certain categories of gaming machines to adults on its premises, in line with the provisions of the Gambling Act 2005 and related regulations. In addition, the business has been licensed in connection with linked gaming machine technical activities, permitting it to be involved in the supply or maintenance of gaming machines used in licensed premises.

The Gambling Commission’s records show that the relevant non-remote operating permissions have been in place since 2009 for Adult Gaming Centre operations and from 2010 for the associated gaming machine technical activities. The overall operating licence is currently recorded as active.

There is no indication in public regulatory sources that the company holds remote (online) operating licences for casino, bingo, betting, or other remote gambling products. Its licensed activities are focused on land-based gaming machine provision within an amusement and theme park environment.
