I can't believe they lets their standards to slip with that to get the fine, after all, they were one of the 1st aff programs to do KYC on their affiliates, years before most others

It's always been a case of: 'do as we say, not as we do' for betway.

I dont know about the Betway situation but generally speaking, the UKGC can shove their fines up their asses. They have fined excellent casinos for bs reasons, ruined the experience for a lot of players, scared many of them away to Curacao casinos and whilst licensed casinos pay their licenses and try to do the right thing, these very same Curacao casinos can do the heck they want. It's a ridiculous system.

There are good and bad in many, some people use Curacao due to country restrictions, some because they want to offer crypto, I know of some shady UK licensed casino, you should base the opinion on the casino itself and how its run instead of what paper they hold.
