What we checked
We searched each regulator’s own register for the legal entity behind PokerStars, then compared the licence number, status, dates and approved domains with what the operator publishes. Every licence below was checked on 25 October 2026.
Findings
- www.pokerstars.uk is the only active UK domain on the licence. pokerstarscasino.uk, pokerstarssports.uk, betstars.uk and the Full Tilt domains are inactive.
- UK players reaching PokerStars through a .com or legacy domain are not on the licensed UK URL.
What this means if you play
The licence is real and current on the register. That gives you a regulator to complain to and, for UK and Malta licences, an approved dispute-resolution service. It does not guarantee every domain using the brand name is covered: use the domains listed on the licence.
Play safely
Gambling is for adults only (18+ where this brand is licensed). Set a deposit limit before you play. If gambling stops being fun, use the support services on our responsible gambling page.
