🎲 X And O's Paisley Cross Limited

This company operates adult gaming centres and amusement arcades in Great Britain, offering gaming machines and other arcade-style gambling products. It is an active gambling operator licensed by the Gambling Commission under an operating licence, and it has been active in the gambling and amusement sector since the late 1990s.

The company was incorporated in January 1999 under the name given on the UK companies register. Public filings indicate that it trades in the UK amusement and gaming sector, including the operation of adult gaming centres under the trading name X & O’s Amusements. Available records do not show that it forms part of a larger gambling group, and it is not listed as having subsidiaries in Companies House filings. Its directors and officers recorded over time have been local business figures; none are widely reported in national industry coverage.

The business model, as described in public directory listings and industry overviews, is centred on land‑based gaming venues rather than online gambling. These venues typically host categories of gaming machines permitted under British gambling legislation, alongside other amusement equipment. Its activities are focused on the retail, walk‑in gambling and amusement market rather than remote gambling.

Licensing and Operations

The company holds a Gambling Commission operating licence, which is required for the provision and management of gambling facilities in Great Britain under the Gambling Act 2005. The licence is recorded by the Gambling Commission as active.

According to the Commission’s public register and industry directories, the business operates non‑remote premises‑based gambling, specifically adult gaming centres. This type of operation involves making available gaming machines in a dedicated venue to customers who attend in person. Holding an operating licence of this kind authorises the company to manage and provide facilities for gambling in accordance with the licence conditions and codes of practice set by the regulator.

The Gambling Commission’s premises register associates the company with licensed gambling premises, including at least one adult gaming centre location in Paisley, Renfrewshire. These premises licences are linked to the company’s operating licence and allow it to offer gaming machines and related gambling facilities on those sites, subject to local authority and Commission oversight.

No publicly available information indicates that the company holds remote (online) operating licences for casino, betting, bingo or other remote gambling activities. Its regulated activities, as evidenced by public registers and trade listings, relate to land‑based machine gaming and amusement within adult gaming centres.

Regulatory History

A search of the Gambling Commission’s public statements and enforcement records does not show any published regulatory sanctions, fines or licence suspensions relating to this operator as of the latest available information. The operating licence remains recorded as active, and there is no public record of licence revocation or surrender.

There is also no indication in Companies House filings or Commission publications of any transfers of the operating licence to another corporate entity, or of changes in control that have triggered published regulatory action. Any routine changes to officers or corporate details have been recorded through standard Companies House filing processes without accompanying public enforcement notices from the Gambling Commission.
