MGA notice listing six unauthorised websites falsely claiming Malta licences, graphic

The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) has named six websites that falsely claim a link to the regulator or a Maltese gaming licence. The MGA unauthorised URLs notice published on 30 October 2026 covers sites identified during October.

The six websites

The MGA said it has no connection with the following URLs, all identified during October 2026:

  • brittsino.co.uk
  • upgaming.com
  • jedar88-heng.lol

Any reference on these sites to the MGA, or to a licence said to be issued by the Maltese regulator, is “false and misleading”, the MGA said.

MGA unauthorised URLs warning

The regulator told consumers not to use an entity’s services until they have confirmed that the MGA authorises it to provide them. Licensed operators in Malta must meet strict legal requirements set in the interest of players, according to the notice.

Unlicensed entities sit outside that framework and offer none of its safeguards, which makes any transaction with them risky for consumers, the MGA said.

Where to check

The MGA keeps a full list of unauthorised URLs on its website and adds new addresses as it identifies them. Players and business partners can confirm a licence in the MGA licensee register.

Background on the jurisdiction and its licensing model is in our profile of Malta as an iGaming hub.
