The short answer

Ivi — the live brand behind this search is IviBet (ivibet.com) — is an offshore casino and sportsbook. It is not licensed by the UK Gambling Commission, so nothing on the UK register applies to it. Its own terms name a Curaçao-registered operating company, and independent reporting places that company inside a wider Curaçao corporate cluster that also runs 22Bet, 20Bet and several other brands. So yes, in the loose sense Ivi has “sisters” — but they are offshore brands sharing a corporate group, not brands on a shared UK licence, and that difference decides what protections you actually have.

There is also a name trap here that catches people out, so it is worth clearing up before anything else.

Offshore — outside the UK Gambling Commission register Checked September 2026

First: which “Ivi” do you mean?

Three different gambling brands sit under near-identical names, and confusing them is easy and costly:

  • IviBet (ivibet.com) — the offshore brand this page is about. Curaçao-facing, not UK-licensed.
  • Ivy Bet / Ivy Casino (ivybet.com, ivycasino-uk.com) — a separate, UK-licensed operation run by Betable Limited of Manchester, which also runs RightBet and Bet442. This one is on the UK Gambling Commission register. It is not connected to IviBet.
  • Ivi Casino (ivicasino.com) — an older, unrelated offshore brand reported to sit with the JocSystems / Argo Casino family. At the time of writing its site would not load for us.

If what you actually want is the UK-regulated brand, it is the Betable one — and its protections are the whole reason the distinction matters. The rest of this page is about the offshore IviBet.

Who runs IviBet, and what we can and can’t verify

IviBet’s terms name a Curaçao-registered operating company in the TechOptions / TechSolutions group. An investigation by the Curaçao Chronicle describes TechSolutions Group N.V., TechOptions Group B.V. and Orakum N.V. as the “command hubs” behind a set of casinos that it lists as including IviBet, 22Bet, 20Bet, Bizzo Casino, Hell Spin, 1xSlots, Betwinner, MegaPari and PariPesa.

Two honest caveats sit on top of that. First, the structure is deliberately layered across several near-identical shell companies (an N.V. here, a B.V. there, a separate EU payments entity), which is exactly what makes “who owns it” hard to pin down — and hard to hold to account. Second, and this is the one that matters most: we could not confirm a specific licence number against the Curaçao regulator’s public register. The site presents itself as Curaçao-licensed; we are not repeating a licence number we cannot verify, and neither should any page that wants your trust. If you see one quoted confidently elsewhere, treat it as copied, not checked.

The reported sister brands — and why this can’t be a register check

Here is the structural difference from every UK page on this site. For a UK operator we can open the Gambling Commission register, read the trading names on one licence, and tell you the sisters as fact. Offshore, there is no such register to read. So the brands below are reported to share IviBet’s corporate cluster — from the investigation above and from ownership trackers — not confirmed on any public licence. We include them because they are the honest state of the evidence, clearly labelled, not because a list is the point.

BrandReported link to IviBetNote
22BetSame Curaçao cluster (TechSolutions / TechOptions)Offshore; not UK-licensed
20BetSame Curaçao clusterOffshore; not UK-licensed

BetwinnerNamed in the same investigationOffshore; not UK-licensed
Bizzo CasinoNamed in the same investigationOffshore; not UK-licensed
1xSlots · Hell Spin · PariPesaNamed in the same investigationOffshore; not UK-licensed

Every row shares IviBet’s one defining trait: it sits outside UK regulation. Moving between them is not moving to a “safer” alternative — it is staying in the same offshore group under a different name.

What being offshore actually costs a UK player

This is the part that matters more than any sister list. Because IviBet is not UK-licensed, the protections a UK player takes for granted simply do not apply. These are risks, stated plainly — not features.

No UK complaints or dispute route. Every UK licensee must belong to a free, Gambling-Commission-approved alternative dispute resolution (ADR) scheme. Offshore, a dispute ends wherever the operator decides it ends, and the Gambling Commission has no power to act for you against a company it does not license.

No UK fund protection. A UK licensee must tell you how your balance is held and rate that protection. No UK rule requires an offshore operator to disclose anything about what happens to your money if the business fails.

The national online self-exclusion scheme does not reach it. That scheme covers companies licensed to offer online gambling in Great Britain. An offshore site is not in it and has no obligation to check it — so a self-exclusion you have set will not block registration or deposits here. If you have excluded yourself for a reason, that gap is the single most important thing on this page.

Deposit limits are per-account, and don’t travel. Any limit you set applies to that one account only. It does not carry across the group’s other brands, and there is no market-wide limit offshore. Setting a careful limit on IviBet does nothing about 22Bet next door.

Bonus terms are often heavier. The UK caps wagering on incentives at 10×. Offshore promotions face no such cap and frequently run higher playthrough, tighter game-weighting and lower withdrawal ceilings on winnings — the detail lives in the terms, and offshore that detail is where the money quietly goes. We won’t quote a specific offer here, because those change and an out-of-date figure is worse than none.

The honest verdict

If you are choosing where to play from the UK, a UK Gambling Commission-licensed site is the safer choice, and it isn’t close. It is not that IviBet is necessarily badly run — it is that when something goes wrong, you have a route with a UK licensee and essentially none offshore. The layered corporate structure, the licence number we couldn’t verify, and the self-exclusion gap all point the same way. If you want a genuinely different company with a clean slate on limits, the answer was never a sister brand in the same offshore group; it is a UK-licensed operator you can check on the public register.

If gambling is not feeling optional, free confidential help is available from GamCare’s National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133, and the national online self-exclusion scheme lets you block every GB-licensed site in one step.

Check it yourself in five minutes

  1. Open IviBet’s terms and find the operating company and the jurisdiction named there.
  2. Search the UK Gambling Commission public register for that company. You will not find it — which confirms the “offshore, not UK-licensed” answer.
  3. If a page quotes a Curaçao licence number, try to verify it on the Curaçao regulator’s own site. If it won’t verify, that tells you how much of the “research” around this brand is copied rather than checked.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is IviCasino still open?+
No. IviCasino ceased operations on 1 April 2024. The site is no longer accessible and no replacement brand under the same JocSolutions Limited operator has been publicly announced.
Who operated IviCasino?+
IviCasino was operated by JocSolutions Limited, licensed under the Curaçao eGaming authority with licence number 8048/JAZ-2015-008. This is an offshore licence and was not regulated by the UK Gambling Commission.
Are there any confirmed IviCasino sister sites?+
No confirmed sister sites under JocSolutions Limited have been publicly identified. This guide covers the closest comparable alternatives UK players consider alongside IviCasino, but none share the same verified operator.
Does UK self-exclusion cover IviCasino alternatives?+
National self-exclusion only covers UK Gambling Commission-licensed operators. IviCasino held a Curaçao licence, so it was never part of the UK self-exclusion scheme. Among the alternatives profiled here, only Magic Red holds a UKGC licence and is therefore covered by the national self-exclusion scheme.
What games did IviCasino offer?+
IviCasino's game library was powered by Microgaming, NetEnt, Quickspin, and BetSoft. The catalogue included slots, live dealer tables, and progressive jackpot titles through the Microgaming network. Comparable alternatives such as Vipzino and Kingdom Casino carry the same core providers.
