UKGC disputes Betowen licensing claim

The UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) has posted notice advising consumers beware of SmartLive Casino-powered online sports betting operator Betowen.com.

Betowen claims on its website that it is “fully regulated and licensed in the United Kingdom under licence number 000-002715-R-103240-006, however the notice published Tuesday warns consumers it is in fact not licensed by the UKGC.

UKGC expressed its “considerable concern” over BetOwen saying while the Commission is taking action it advises consumers not to deposit money with the operator.

Readers will recall the UKGC suspended the online gambling licensing awarded to Smart TV Broadcasting Ltd to operate online casinos like Guruplay.com, Smartlivebaccarat.com, Smartlivebingo.com, Smartliveblackjack.com, Smartlivecasino.com, Smartlivepoker.com and Smartlivesports.com late last week (see previous report).
