Our verdict
21Bets is an online casino operating at 21betscasino.com, run by ProgressPlay Ltd, licensed by United Kingdom Gambling Commission. The brand dates from 2012.
Those company and licensing details are taken from the operator's own terms and about pages — they are the operator's claims about itself, which Rixer has recorded rather than independently confirmed.
The site advertises games from Evolution, Microgaming, NetEnt, Play'n GO and 1 other; deposits by Apple Pay, Google Pay, Mastercard, Neteller; balances in GBP. Those are the names printed on its own pages, not supply deals Rixer has verified with the providers.
It has a Trustpilot profile at https://www.trustpilot.com/review/21bets.com; and the operating company appears in news coverage, including “Gambling Commission hands £1 million fine to ProgressPlay”. Everything in this paragraph is reported by other people: Rixer records that the claims were made and does not endorse them.
Rixer has not opened an account here, has not tested a withdrawal, and has no complaint case data for this brand yet. Until those gaps are closed this page is a record of what is publicly knowable, not a recommendation.

Can you trust 21Bets?
Reasonable. Solid overall, with gaps worth reading before you deposit.
Worked out from 8 of the 8 things we look at.
👍 What is good
- Safety & licensing
90/100
UK Gambling Commission (strict oversight, tier score 100); no licence number published, so the claim cannot be looked up. - Longevity & footprint
90/100
The domain was registered over 11 years ago (2015-06-02), according to the registry rather than the operator. The site says it was founded in 2012.
👎 What is not
- Company reputation
30/100
Found 2 of 3 news item(s) about ProgressPlay Ltd whose headlines suggest regulatory or legal trouble, beginning “Gambling Commission hands £1 million fine to ProgressPlay”. Rixer has NOT verified these stories or confirmed they concern this brand's operations — they lower the score as a flag for review, and the citation is published so a reader can judge for themselves. - Responsible gambling
40/100
Has a dedicated responsible-gambling page, but it names no self-exclusion, limits or help service.
How we worked this out
UK Gambling Commission (strict oversight, tier score 100); no licence number published, so the claim cannot be looked up.
Has a dedicated responsible-gambling page, but it names no self-exclusion, limits or help service.
Publishes the operating company, a postal address, a contact route. Does not publish a licence number, a company registration number.
Has an independent review-platform page, but it publishes no aggregate rating we could read. Scored just below neutral: the presence is real, the standing is unknown.
We searched Reddit and YouTube and found no substantial public discussion of this brand. Scored as neutral: silence is not a complaint, but it is also not a recommendation.

What the open web says about 21Bets
Collected from public search results — news, Reddit and video. Rixer records that these claims were made and links to the source; it does not endorse them, and a headline is not a finding. Regulatory and legal news is usually reported against the operating company rather than the brand, so both are searched.
