Is AK Bets legit in the UK?

Yes, in the licence-check sense. As of 5 August 2026, akbets.bet is live and appears as an Active domain under Akbo Limited on the UK Gambling Commission register.

The same entry shows active casino, real-event betting and virtual-event betting activities, all starting on 27 March 2025. This confirms the domain and company match, but it does not guarantee that every player complaint will be settled in the player's favour.

• Public brand: AK Bets
• Active domain: akbets.bet
• UK licence holder: Akbo Limited
• Listed activities: casino, real-event betting and virtual-event betting

For UK player checks, Akbo Limited is the key company because it is the licence holder attached to akbets.bet on the regulator's register.

A public interview with AK Bets identifies Anthony Kaminskas as the brand's founder. More recent betting industry coverage describes him as its chief executive.

That establishes a clear management link, but it is not proof of personal share ownership. The practical answer for players is that Akbo Limited holds the UK licence, while Kaminskas is publicly identified as the founder and CEO.

The live AK Bets footer currently names Star Racing Ltd in its UK licensing wording, while the Gambling Commission entry connected to that wording names Akbo Limited. Those two public references do not line up cleanly.

For a current licence check or formal complaint, use Akbo Limited and match the exact akbets.bet domain. Do not treat the Star Racing footer reference alone as proof that Star Sports or another Star Racing brand shares Akbo Limited's licence.

1. Open the official Akbo Limited register entry, account 66030.
2. Confirm that the company name is Akbo Limited.
3. Open the domain-name section and check that akbets.bet is marked Active.
4. Check that the casino and betting activities still show Active before depositing.

Use the live regulator page if it differs from a review, search-result snippet or licensing statement in a site footer.

There are no confirmed sister sites under Akbo Limited's UK licence. The regulator lists only akbets.bet, with no other active or inactive domains and no separate trading names.

A similar site design, shared supplier or historic business link is not enough to prove common ownership. Treat another gambling site as an AK Bets sister brand only when current regulator or company records connect them.

• Make sure the address is exactly akbets.bet, not a lookalike domain.
• Match the domain to Akbo Limited on the official register.
• Read the current AK Bets terms and conditions before playing.
• Save copies of important account messages, transaction records and complaint references.

Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and use the site's safer gambling tools if play stops feeling manageable.

Casinos can be hard to contact, if you're struggling to get in touch with them via email then you can try writing to the address they've provided on file. This is listed under the UK Gambling Commission and so should be a mailing address which will respond to any requests.

Here's all the live domains running under Akbo Limited. They're all actively licensed under the UK Gambling Commission.

Below contains all the licenses on file for Akbo Limited. You can view a breakdown of license types here but crucially an active license in the remote casino sector is required to provide online gambling in the United Kingdom.

Remote casino licence: Active (since 27 March 2025).

Akbo Limited has no regulatory action on the Gambling Commission's public register (checked 13 October 2026). The Commission keeps each action on the register for three years, so this does not cover older cases. See all UKGC fines and sanctions.
