Regulated by the Spelinspektionen (SGA). Licensed operators in Sweden.
SGA stands for the Swedish Gambling Authority. The official name in Swedish is Spelinspektionen, which translates as the Gambling Inspectorate. The site uses Spelinspektionen throughout.
It licenses and supervises gambling in Sweden under the Gambling Act 2018:1138.
Spelinspektionen issues licences and permits across the Swedish market.
The licence register covers online gambling and betting licences, land-based casino, card game venues, value slot machines and gambling on ships.
Lotteries and public benefit gambling are permitted separately under the same authority.
The register is the Licensregistret on the Spelinspektionen website. The link is in the sources below.
Search by company name or by website. The register also offers the full list of licensed operators as an Excel download, so you can check a brand offline.
A result tells you the licensed company, the type of licence and whether the licence is valid. A site that is not in the register is not licensed to take bets from players in Sweden.
Spelinspektionen does not publish a per-licensee licence number in its register. The register identifies the licence holder by company name, licence type and validity.
Our operator records for Sweden therefore carry SGA-unverified, which means the number is not published rather than missing.
Verification for a Swedish licence is a name match in the register, not a number match.
Casino deadline: Internal complaints procedure first.
Where to escalate next: ARN, the National Board for Consumer Disputes.
Issues a decision on consumer disputes. A minimum claim value applies. Spelinspektionen does not mediate.
Spelinspektionen supervises licence conditions. It does not mediate between a player and an operator and cannot order a payout.
