GG.BET has discontinued operations in the UK, stating on its British domain that GGBET.co.uk has ceased operating under its UK Gambling Commission licence and is no longer providing gambling services in the country. The notice also includes a message thanking players for their support during the brand’s time in the UK market.
According to industry reporting, the wind-down was carried out in stages: the bookmaker reportedly stopped new registrations and disabled deposits and multiple product verticals in December 2025, with the platform described as fully ceasing operations by January 9, 2026.
What Customers Should Know About Withdrawals and Bets
On its closure page, GG.BET instructs customers who believe they are eligible for a withdrawal to contact support, noting that eligible requests will be reviewed and processed once required checks are completed. The site also provides a separate contact route for formal complaints.
Separately, the same report says the operator planned to settle bets for events taking place before the closure date in the normal manner, while any unsettled bets for events scheduled after closure would be voided and stakes returned to account balances automatically.
Wider Market Backdrop: UK Gambling Duties Set to Rise
GG.BET’s exit comes as the UK prepares significant changes to gambling duties. The UK government has published plans to increase Remote Gaming Duty from 21% to 40% from 1 April 2026, alongside other reforms (including changes affecting remote betting later on).
While GG.BET has not publicly tied its decision to a single factor in the closure notice, analysts and industry coverage have pointed to the potential for higher tax burdens and tougher economics to accelerate consolidation or push smaller operators to reassess market participation.
