Donbet Sister Sites

Yes. Donbet has sister sites, and there are a lot of them. It is not a standalone casino. Donbet is one brand in a large offshore group that most people know by its best-known name, MyStake. It holds no UK Gambling Commission licence. It reaches UK players from outside the UK system, on a Curaçao registration rather than a British one, so the consumer protections you would get at a UK-licensed casino do not apply here.

If you are trying to work out who is behind Donbet, and whether the other sites in its family are any safer, the short answer is that they share one operator and the same lack of UK oversight. Below is what we could verify, what we could not, and why the licensing picture is worse than the site's own footer makes it look.

Who actually runs Donbet

Donbet's own About page names its operator as GTW B.V., a company registered in Curaçao, with payments handled by a separate Cyprus company, CYGTW LTD. That much comes straight from the brand. The wider story comes from gambling-industry reporting, and it is where Donbet stops looking like an ordinary offshore casino.

The same operator sits behind MyStake, one of the most-used offshore brands among British players. Trade outlets including NEXT.io and CasinoGuardian reported in early 2026 that the group moved its Curaçao licensing from an older company, Santeda International B.V., to the newer GTW B.V. Later in 2026 both companies were reported dissolved, after the corporate-services firm acting as their director withdrew. So the legal entity printed against any of these brands has been a moving target, which is itself a reason for caution. You cannot count on the company named today still standing behind your balance tomorrow.

What we could and could not verify about the licence

Donbet displays a Curaçao Gaming Authority licence in GTW B.V.'s name. We were not able to confirm a live, current entry for it on the regulator's own public register, which Curaçao publishes as scanned image documents that cannot be checked mechanically. For that reason we are not printing a licence number: we could not stand behind one from the source that counts, and copying a number off a review site is exactly how false certainty spreads. What reputable reporting does say is that the register recorded the group's licence as expired at the end of 2025, before the holding companies were wound up. Treat the badge on the site as decoration, not as proof of active supervision.

One thing is settled. This is not a UK licence. Donbet holds no UK Gambling Commission authorisation, and a Curaçao registration gives a British player none of the rights a UKGC licence carries.

Donbet's sister sites

These are the brands most consistently tied to the same operator by industry research, rather than by affiliate "similar casino" lists. In June 2026, seven of them went offline together for around 20 hours when their game suppliers pulled out. That is about as clear a sign of shared plumbing as you will find.

Other names, Jack.com, Betride, Zizobet, Locusbet and Casinok among them, were reported to have gone dark in the same outage, which points to the same shared infrastructure. We have kept the table to the brands the reporting ties most firmly to the group. Because the operating company has shifted between Santeda International B.V. and GTW B.V., we deliberately do not pin one fixed company to each row.

For scale: researchers at GAMRS estimated the network turned over roughly £3.5bn in 2025, the majority of that from UK customers, despite none of the brands holding a UK licence. One detail from the outage is telling. When the games went down, the sportsbook and the crypto payment rails kept running. The part that takes your money stayed up while the part that entertains you did not.

What this means for a UK player

Start with the risks, because they are the whole story here.

• No UK complaints route. If a withdrawal is refused or an account is closed with a balance in it, there is no UK Gambling Commission to escalate to and no UK alternative dispute resolution service. Your recourse runs through Curaçao, and with the operator's companies reported dissolved, that recourse is thin.
• No UK fund protection. UK-licensed casinos must tell you how customer money is held and follow rules on it. An offshore brand like this is under no such obligation, so money left on account carries more risk of simply being gone.
• It sits outside the national online self-exclusion scheme. If you have self-excluded from UK-licensed gambling, that block does not reach Donbet or its sisters. These sites are, in fact, marketed to people in exactly that position. If you excluded yourself for a reason, this network is a way around the protection you put in place, and that is a warning, not a selling point.
• Deposit limits are per account. Any limit you set applies only to the brand where you set it. Open Goldenbet or Velobet next and you begin again from zero, with no cap that follows you across the group.
• Heavier bonus terms. Offshore promotions commonly carry higher wagering and stricter conditions than UK rules would permit, and the group is reported to run near-identical terms across its brands, so hopping between the sisters changes very little.

The honest verdict

Donbet is a real casino with a large game library and a heavy marketing footprint, and it plainly works for the people using it. But as a UK player you would be handing back every protection the UK system is built to give you, to use a brand whose licence looks lapsed and whose operating companies have been dissolved. That is a poor trade in any weather.

If you want the kind of site this family imitates, a UK Gambling Commission-licensed casino is the safer choice by a wide margin: a real complaints route if something goes wrong, and a self-exclusion system that actually reaches your account. You can check any operator's licence yourself on the UK Gambling Commission public register before you put money in.
