ClickandBuy casinos UK: where the rail went, and what to play at now
Data current as of September 8, 2026 and verified against the UK Gambling Commission’s public register.

The short version, before the long one: there is no UK online casino accepting ClickandBuy in 2026. The company behind the wallet entered voluntary liquidation in January 2024 and was formally dissolved on 24 February 2026. Its website, app and merchant integration are all defunct, and the searches that still name it lead nowhere the rail can carry a deposit. What follows is a working account of what ClickandBuy was, what killed it, and the ten GB-licensed operators a UK player can actually use today with a debit card or a modern e-wallet.
ClickandBuy casinos: a UK payment rail that no longer exists
The phrase “ClickandBuy casinos” names a payment option, not a casino brand. ClickandBuy International Limited was a UK-registered e-wallet intermediary, company number 05661160, incorporated on 22 December 2005. For roughly a decade it sat between a player’s bank or card and an online merchant, including a long list of online casinos, processing deposits and withdrawals for customers who preferred not to type card details into a gaming site. The rail was small relative to PayPal or Skrill, but it was embedded enough that affiliate guides from 2010 through 2015 still name Coral, William Hill, Betway and 888 Casino among the brands that once listed it as a deposit option.
The rail is gone. The company entered voluntary liquidation on 4 January 2024 and was formally dissolved on 24 February 2026, per Companies House. The ClickandBuy website, the consumer app (last meaningfully updated around 2017) and the merchant integration that connected casinos to the wallet are all defunct. No UK-licensed casino accepts ClickandBuy today, and any page that still publishes a “ClickandBuy casino list” is publishing a redirect to a rail that no longer exists. As one guide for UK players puts it: “ClickandBuy shut down years ago, but many UK players still search for casinos that accept it.”
What a ClickandBuy casino was
A ClickandBuy casino was simply a casino that listed the ClickandBuy e-wallet as a deposit and withdrawal method at the cashier. The player funded a ClickandBuy account from a bank transfer or a debit card, and ClickandBuy paid the casino on the player’s behalf, keeping an internal balance that could be topped up and drawn down without re-entering card details. The same account could be used across many merchants. From the casino’s side, ClickandBuy appeared as a payment-service-provider line at the cashier; from the player’s side, it was a small balance held in a wallet. The wallet, the website that hosted it and the merchant integration that routed payments are all gone now. The legal entity was a UK company; the brand is a closed chapter of payment history.
How to read a “ClickandBuy casinos” list in 2026
Any list naming “ClickandBuy casinos” in 2026 is stale at best, misleading at worst. Competitor guides in the SERPs still publish Coral, William Hill, Betway and 888 Casino as historical ClickandBuyers. The historical detail is real; the implication that those operators accept ClickandBuy now is not. The honest reading of a current list is that it is a redirect: a list of casinos that *used to* accept the rail, with a recommendation to use a modern deposit method at the same brands. That is what this page does in the operator section below, with the added note that the rail itself cannot be used at any of them.
How ClickandBuy deposits and withdrawals worked — and why they stopped
The mechanics of a ClickandBuy deposit were simple on the surface. The player opened or signed into a ClickandBuy wallet, chose a funding source, and authorised a payment. ClickandBuy credited the casino in near-real time and debited the player’s wallet balance. The casino’s cashier reflected an instant deposit; the player’s bank statement showed a charge to ClickandBuy, not to the casino. Withdrawals reversed the flow: the casino pushed funds back to the wallet, and the player could then spend the balance at another ClickandBuy-accepting merchant or cash out to a bank account.

What stopped the flow is twofold. The company itself entered liquidation in January 2024, and the wider UK market around it changed in ways that made the rail’s old assumptions unworkable. Credit cards and credit-card-funded e-wallet deposits have been banned at every GB-licensed remote operator since 14 April 2020, under licence condition 6.1.2. The user-experience norms of the modern UK market, with mandatory affordability checks, gross deposit limits and a hard 10× ceiling on bonus wagering, sit on top of rails that look very different from the ones ClickandBuy once connected. The modern equivalent is a debit card or one of the surviving e-wallets: PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, or Trustly.
How money moved through a ClickandBuy account
A ClickandBuy deposit started at the casino cashier. The player chose ClickandBuy, was redirected to the wallet, signed in, and confirmed a payment from a previously registered funding source, typically a bank transfer or a debit card. ClickandBuy debited the funding source, held the balance inside the wallet, and credited the casino. No card details crossed the casino’s site. There is no surviving published minimum-deposit figure for ClickandBuy in its final years of operation, because the company stopped operating before the data was preserved in a form the regulator now publishes. The flow itself is what matters for a reader now: a wallet that no longer exists, in a market where any wallet that wants to operate needs a UK payment institution or e-money licence of its own.
ClickandBuy withdrawals: the “fast payout” promise died with the method
The marketing of any e-wallet in the 2010s leaned hard on speed: a withdrawal routed back through the wallet and the player saw funds inside hours, not days. The promise is moot for ClickandBuy, because the rail no longer processes a withdrawal at any UK casino. No published ClickandBuy withdrawal time survives as a current fact, and a player who tries to retrieve funds through a defunct wallet is, in practice, chasing a closed account at a dissolved company. The relevant question for a UK player in 2026 is not how fast ClickandBuy paid out, but how the modern UK operators that replaced it handle a withdrawal, and the section on modern e-wallets below answers that.
ClickandBuy fees and limits: figures that vanished with it
ClickandBuy charged fees as an intermediary in its operating years, in line with other e-wallets of the period: small loading fees, currency-conversion margins, and inactivity charges on dormant balances. None of those numbers carries forward, because none of the charges can be levied by a company that no longer exists. The relevant number for a UK player now sits on the other side of the cashier: from 30 June 2026, extended to 30 September 2026, every GB-licensed operator must offer a gross deposit limit, with decreases actioned immediately and increases subject to a 24-hour cooling-off period. The licensed market’s rules have replaced the wallet’s old fee schedule.
What UK casinos take instead: debit cards and today’s e-wallets
The genuine answer to “casinos that accept ClickandBuy UK” is a short list of modern rails that do the same job, with the added protection of operating under UK Financial Conduct Authority or Gambling Commission oversight.
- Debit cards are the baseline deposit method at every GB-licensed operator, with Visa Debit and Mastercard Debit accepted across the featured set. Credit cards and credit-card-funded e-wallet deposits have been banned since 14 April 2020.
- PayPal is the most widely accepted modern e-wallet across UK-licensed casinos, with deposits typically instant and withdrawals routed back through the wallet.
- Skrill remains a standard e-wallet at the majority of featured operators, with the same caveat that credit-card-funded Skrill deposits are blocked.
- Neteller is the third of the long-standing e-wallet trio, present at most of the operators listed below and treated by the regulator identically to Skrill.
- Trustly is the open-banking rail that has grown fastest in the UK, routing deposits and withdrawals directly between a bank account and the casino without a card at all.
The ten GB-licensed operators to use instead
The table below ranks ten GB-licensed casinos against their current welcome offer and the key terms a UK player needs to compare. Every operator holds an active licence on the UK Gambling Commission public register (2,663 records, last updated 29 July 2026). None of them accepts ClickandBuy; the welcome offers route through a debit card or a modern e-wallet.
| Operator | GB licence status | Welcome offer | Wagering | Deposit-free entry |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| bet365 | GB-licensed (Hillside ENC 55149) | Up to 500 free spins | 0× on winnings | No (£10 lifetime deposits) |
| William Hill | GB-licensed (account 39225) | 200 wager-free spins (10p each) | 0× | No (deposit £10, stake £10) |
| Sky Vegas | GB-licensed (Flutter) | 50 no-deposit spins + 200 after £10 spend | 0× | Yes (50 spins on registration) |
| Coral | GB-licensed (Entain) | 100 wager-free spins (10p each) | 0× | No (deposit £10, wager £10) |
| Ladbrokes | GB-licensed (Entain) | 100 free spins (10p, selected games) | 0× | No (deposit £10, bet £10+) |
| Paddy Power | GB-licensed (Flutter) | 60 no-deposit spins + 100–200 after £10 wager | 0× | Yes (60 spins on registration) |
| Betfair | GB-licensed (Flutter) | 50 no-deposit spins + 100 after £10 spend | 0× | Yes (50 spins on registration) |
| 888casino | GB-licensed (evoke plc) | 100% match up to £100 | 10× on selected slots within 90 days | No (£10+ deposit) |
| Betway | GB-licensed (Super Group) | 100% match up to £50, or stake £20 get 150 spins | 10× on match, 0× on spins | No (debit card deposit) |
| Betfred | GB-licensed (Petfre Gibraltar) | Up to 200 free spins | 0× | No (stake £10+ on slots) |
bet365
bet365 sits at the top of the set by spin count alone. The offer is up to 500 free spins, with each spin on a wager-free basis, so anything won is paid in cash with no playthrough. The mechanics are slightly different from a flat one-off drop: the player makes a minimum of £10 in lifetime deposits to qualify, then has 30 days from registration to claim, choosing from ten selections of 5, 10, 20 or 50 free spins spread over 20 days. That structure rewards a player who logs in regularly rather than one who claims in a single session. The licence is Hillside (UK Gaming) ENC, account 55149, with a separate sports account at 55148. The trade-off is the entry barrier: a player who has not already deposited £10 over the lifetime of the account does not unlock the offer, and there is no genuinely free route in. For a returning bet365 customer who deposits and plays anyway, the spin count is the highest in the set; for a first-time player comparing a free entry, the no-deposit offers at Sky Vegas, Paddy Power and Betfair are the better match.
William Hill
William Hill’s welcome is the cleanest high-street name in the set: 200 wager-free spins at 10p each, unlocked by depositing £10 and staking £10 on the advertised game within 7 days. Winnings are paid as cash, with no playthrough and no maximum-cashout cap. The licence sits with William Hill Organization Limited under account 39225, one of the longest-running operator accounts on the UKGC register. The terms are tighter than bet365’s in spin count but simpler in execution: one opt-in, one stake, one credit. A player who wants a wager-free welcome at a familiar brand and is happy to deposit and stake a tenner inside a week gets the cleanest version of that offer here.
Sky Vegas
Sky Vegas is the only operator in the set that hands out spins twice: 50 on registration, before any deposit, and another 200 after depositing and spending £10. Every spin carries 0× wagering, so winnings are paid in cash. The 50-spin no-deposit leg is the genuine free entry; the post-deposit leg is the standard welcome shape. The licence sits within Flutter Entertainment’s UKGC coverage, and each spin is worth £0.10 with a 7-day validity. For a player who wants to test a casino with real money on the line, a no-money-down entry, and a wager-free welcome after that, Sky Vegas is the cleanest two-step in the set. The downside is the post-deposit step still requires a real spend, so the value is split.
Coral
Coral’s offer is 100 wager-free spins at 10p each on a £10 deposit and a £10 wager on selected slots, all within a 7-day window from opt-in. Acceptance is required within 48 hours of registration. The licence sits with Entain, alongside Ladbrokes, and the same shape applies. The 100-spin count is half William Hill’s, but the offer is otherwise structurally identical: one deposit, one wager, no playthrough. This is the standard Entain welcome, making Coral a solid pick if you already frequent the brand for sports betting.
Ladbrokes
Ladbrokes mirrors Coral in nearly every respect: 100 free spins at 10p on selected games, a £10 deposit, a £10+ bet on slots, 0× wagering, 7 days from credit, and a 48-hour opt-in window. The licence is the same Entain umbrella. The two brands are functionally interchangeable on the welcome offer, so the choice between them is one of brand, sportsbook product and ongoing promotions rather than the sign-up mechanics. A player who already has an account at one is not missing materially different terms at the other.
Paddy Power
Paddy Power is the most generous no-deposit entry in the set after Sky Vegas: 60 spins on registration, no money down, no wagering, plus 100 to 200 more after depositing and wagering £10. The post-deposit step is variable, with the actual spin count depending on the promotional window at the time of opt-in. The licence sits with Flutter. Each spin is worth £0.10, validity is 7 days, and winnings are paid in cash throughout. For a player who wants a no-deposit leg and a large post-deposit leg at the same brand, Paddy Power is the highest combined spin count in the Flutter trio.
Betfair
Betfair rounds out the Flutter set with the smallest no-deposit leg: 50 spins at £0.10 each on registration, 0× wagering, plus another 100 after depositing and spending £10. The structure is identical to Sky Vegas and Paddy Power in the no-wagering terms, with a smaller headline count. The trade-off is the breadth of the Betfair product, which combines a casino, a sportsbook and an exchange under one wallet. The offer effectively bundles the casino sign-up with access to Betfair’s signature betting exchange, keeping your gaming and trading under one roof.
888casino
888casino is the only pure deposit match in the set: 100% up to £100 on a £10+ deposit, with 10× wagering on selected slots within 90 days, and winnings from the bonus capped at £100. There are no free spins in the main welcome. The licence sits with 888 Holdings, now part of evoke plc. A 10× playthrough sits exactly at the statutory ceiling, which is itself a deliberate structural feature: after 19 December 2025, the regulator caps bonus wagering at 10×, and 888casino has positioned its welcome at that ceiling rather than below it. For a player who wants a cash-match rather than a spins welcome, and is comfortable with the statutory maximum playthrough, 888casino is the obvious fit. The £100 win cap is the cost of that structure: a hot streak on the bonus is paid out to that ceiling and no further.
Betway
Betway runs two offers side by side. The first is a 100% match up to £50 on a £10+ deposit by debit card, with 10× wagering and 7-day validity. The second is a separate stake-£20-get-150-free-spins offer, with 0× wagering, spins at £0.10 each, released 50 per day over 3 days. The licence is Betway Limited under Super Group. The two-track structure is unusual in the set: a player choosing the match takes the higher wagering and the higher entry stake; a player choosing the spins takes 0× but commits £20 to the slot rather than £10. For a player who wants the wager-free route at Betway, the spins offer is the cleaner of the two; for a player who wants the matched cash, the £50 cap is half of 888casino’s but the wagering is identical.
Betfred
Betfred’s welcome is up to 200 free spins for staking £10 or more on casino slots within 30 days of registration, with 0× wagering, 7 days from acceptance, and a debit card deposit required. The licence sits with Petfre (Gibraltar) Limited, trading as Betfred. The 30-day claim window is the longest in the set, which gives a player who is in no rush a comfortable runway to opt in and play. The 200-spin count matches William Hill and is beaten only by bet365’s headline figure. For a player who already has a Betfred account or prefers a high-street bookmaker with a long claim window, this is the strongest wager-free structure outside bet365.
Why your 2026 casino welcome offer is mostly free spins now
UK welcome offers have shifted shape. The promo code and the matched deposit are still around, but the standard welcome is now a free-spins drop on a £10 deposit, with no wagering on winnings. Two changes forced that. First, the 10× cap on bonus wagering has been in force since 19 December 2025, set under LCCP Social Responsibility Code 5.1.1, and that cap pushes offers toward low-playthrough structures that make free spins a natural fit. Second, the same code provision banned mixed-product promotional offers, the kind that asked a player to bet on football in exchange for casino spins, which had been a common way of clearing bonus value at low headline wagering. With those offers gone, the cleanest legal shape is a spin offer at 0× or at the 10× ceiling, and that is what the table above shows.
No-deposit spins that are actually free
Three operators in the table hand out spins before any deposit is made, and all three carry 0× wagering with cash winnings. Sky Vegas gives 50 spins on registration, Paddy Power gives 60, and Betfair gives 50. The post-deposit offers at the same three brands add a further 100 to 200 spins each, also at 0×. The distinction between “no-deposit” and “post-deposit” is the line that matters here: a player who wants to test a brand without committing any money is choosing between 50 and 60 free spins across the three, and the value per spin is identical at £0.10 each. A no-deposit offer at 0× is the cleanest free entry the licensed UK market currently allows.
The £10 deposit is the new entry ticket
For the seven operators that gate the welcome on a deposit, the entry point is consistently £10. William Hill and Coral require a £10 deposit and a £10 stake on slots. Ladbrokes asks for a £10 deposit and a £10+ bet on slots. Betfred asks for £10+ staked on slots within 30 days. bet365’s gating is a £10 lifetime deposit total, not a single transaction. 888casino and Betway both set the minimum deposit at £10. The £10 figure is a market convention, not a regulator’s rule, and it is the standard minimum at every brand in the set. The bigger change is what is not part of any welcome: promo codes. No welcome offer in the featured set is gated on a code, and the reader is meant to opt in at the cashier rather than copy a string from an affiliate page.
No-wagering and the 10× cap: why bonuses changed
The 0× wager-free spin offer now dominates because the alternative has been capped. Wagering on bonuses at a UK-licensed operator cannot exceed 10× since 19 December 2025, and the 888casino and Betway match offers sit exactly at that ceiling. Spin offers, by contrast, are routinely structured at 0× because the operator values the marketing exposure of the spin drop more than the playthrough margin, and because a 10× cap on a £1 spin value produces a trivial playthrough anyway. The result is a market where the wager-free structure is the default and the cash match is the exception, and the two exceptions sit at the maximum legal wagering. For a player, the practical read is that wagering is no longer the comparison metric it was in the matched-deposit era; the comparison is now about spin count, deposit threshold, and the deposit-free leg.
The rules that changed since ClickandBuy left the UK
The licensed UK market that ClickandBuy last served bears little resemblance to the one it served a decade ago. A UK player in 2026 is protected by a stack of rules that did not exist when the wallet was live, and that stack is the reason a ClickandBuy casino is now a closed question rather than an open one. The table below sets out the rules a licensed operator must follow.

| Restriction | What it caps or requires | In force since |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-verification of name, address and date of birth | Required before any deposit or wager | 7 May 2019 |
| Credit card ban (including credit-card-funded e-wallets) | All remote gambling deposits | 14 April 2020 |
| Reverse withdrawals | Permanently banned | 31 October 2021 |
| Slots stake cap (25+) | £5 per game cycle | 9 April 2025 |
| Slots stake cap (18–24) | £2 per game cycle | 21 May 2025 |
| Financial vulnerability check | At £150 net deposit in rolling 30 days | 28 February 2025 |
| Marketing opt-in per product and channel | Required for all direct marketing | 1 May 2025 |
| Wagering cap and mixed-product offer ban | 10× max wagering; mixed offers banned | 19 December 2025 |
| Gross deposit limit | Mandatory; decreases immediate, increases 24-hour cooling-off | 30 June 2026 (extended 30 September 2026) |
| Remote Gaming Duty | 40% on Gross Gambling Yield | 1 April 2026 |
Licensed vs unlicensed: the line every GB casino must hold
The Gambling Act 2005, as extended by the Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Act 2014, requires any operator serving GB customers to hold a UK Gambling Commission licence, regardless of where the operator is based. There is no state monopoly in Great Britain, and there is no cap on the number of licences issued; the Commission is the single statutory regulator, and its public register is the document a player consults to confirm an operator’s status. The register held 2,663 records at the last update on 29 July 2026. Operating gambling in GB without that licence is a criminal offence under section 33 of the Gambling Act 2005, carrying up to 51 weeks’ imprisonment, an unlimited fine, or both. The practical consequence is that a “casino” is either on the register or it is not legally serving British customers, and the rest of this page assumes the reader is on the licensed side of that line.
GAMSTOP, verification and the offshore workaround
The protections a licensed site must offer are exactly what an offshore ClickandBuy site refuses. Identity has been verified before deposit since 7 May 2019: name, address and date of birth must be confirmed before the customer can fund the account or place a bet. GAMSTOP, the national self-exclusion register, has been mandatory for every GB-licensed online operator since 31 March 2020, and exclusion periods run from six months to five years, with no early cancellation. Offshore sites are not on GAMSTOP, do not run the licensed vulnerability checks, and do not offer the Commission’s complaints route. The Commission’s response to unlicensed sites is disruption rather than blocking: cease-and-desist notices with a 48-hour deadline, search-engine delisting referrals, domain-registrar pressure, and payment-provider referrals. Between April 2024 and June 2025, the Commission referred 447,778 URLs for delisting and saw 287,961 of them removed. There is no statutory ISP or DNS blocking power; that has been proposed but not enacted. The licensed market is the one that holds the protections a UK player is used to, and the unregistered market is the one that does not.
Safety checks and the money limits arriving now
A second layer of controls has been added on top of the licence. A financial vulnerability check triggers at £150 net deposit over a rolling 30-day period, in force from 28 February 2025, and uses publicly available data only rather than a credit check. Announced but not yet commenced, financial risk assessments will introduce tiered thresholds: a stage-one check at £5,000 in 24 hours for players 25 and over, and £2,500 for those under 25, with final thresholds of £1,000 to £3,000 (25+) and £750 to £2,000 (under 25). The start date is unconfirmed at the time of writing. Marketing has tightened alongside: every product and every channel requires a fresh opt-in since 1 May 2025, and under-25s may not feature in gambling advertising. Each rule narrows what a UK-licensed operator can do, and the combined effect is a market that looks very little like the one ClickandBuy last served.
Slots and live tables survived ClickandBuy’s shutdown
The games the reader came for are still here. The provider mix across the featured operators covers NetEnt, Microgaming, Playtech, Pragmatic Play, Red Tiger, Blueprint, IGT and Evolution, which is the standard UKGC-licensed casino stack. The libraries themselves have not thinned out: the same slot titles and the same live tables that ran under a ClickandBuy cashier a decade ago now run under a debit-card or e-wallet cashier, with the only material changes being in how the games are designed to play rather than what is on offer. Auto-play is banned, spin speed is at least 2.5 seconds, losses disguised as wins are banned, reverse withdrawals are banned, and the session display must show running losses, wins and time played. Those design rules, in force since 31 October 2021, are the reason a slot at a UK-licensed casino in 2026 does not look or feel like a slot at an offshore site.
Online slots today: the titles and the new design rules
The slot library at each of the featured operators is built from the same provider list, and the welcome offers are slot-based because that is the product that monetises a free spin. The stake caps detailed in the rules table apply only to online slots: £5 per game cycle for players 25 and over, and £2 for players aged 18 to 24. No stake cap has been set for any other product. The design rules that sit alongside those caps mean a slot today spins at a measured pace, shows the running session position, and never auto-plays through a balance. The combination of stake cap, spin speed and LDW ban has compressed what a slot session looks like, and the welcome offers in the table above are calibrated to that compressed shape: 10p or 20p spins, capped at the statutory maximum stake, paid in cash with no playthrough.
Table games, live dealer and bingo under the same licence
Blackjack, roulette and the live-dealer product run via Evolution, Playtech and NetEnt across the featured set, and the same stake caps do not apply: no stake cap has been established for live casino, sports betting or bingo. A player at a live blackjack table in 2026 can wager above the £5 slot ceiling, subject to the operator’s own table limits, and the same session-display and reality-check rules apply as on slots. Bingo sits under the same UKGC licence as the rest of the product, with the same safer-gambling infrastructure behind it, though none of the ten featured operators is a bingo-first brand. A player who arrived via the bingo-specific “ClickandBuy casino” searches the SERPs still record is being routed to a casino product at a brand that may or may not run a dedicated bingo room, and the safer-gambling protections carry over to whichever product they sit down at.
ClickandBuy’s app is dead — casino apps are not
The ClickandBuy app, last meaningfully updated around 2017, is defunct. The merchant integration that connected it to a casino cashier has been dead since the company entered liquidation in January 2024. The casino apps that ran alongside it, bet365, William Hill, Sky Vegas, Coral, Ladbrokes, Paddy Power, Betfair, 888casino, Betway and Betfred, are all live. The two are not the same product and never were: the wallet app was a payment app, the casino apps are gaming apps, and the death of the first says nothing about the second. A UK player who remembers installing the ClickandBuy app in the early 2010s is not installing it again, because there is nothing to install. The casino app they reach for in 2026 runs at a GB-licensed brand, takes a debit card or a modern e-wallet, and has no ClickandBuy integration to look for.
Mobile casinos and Android play in 2026
Mobile compatibility is the default at every featured operator, on both Android and iOS, through a native app where one is published and a mobile site where it is not. The compatibility is not a selling point because every competitor has it. A UK player choosing between the ten brands in the table above is choosing on welcome offer, brand familiarity, product mix and on-site UX, not on whether they can play on a phone. No ClickandBuy mobile integration exists at any of them, because the rail is closed.
Casino apps vs mobile browser: what matters now
The choice between a casino’s native app and its mobile browser is mostly a matter of how a player prefers to log in, with both routes reaching the same licensed games. The cashier is identical on both: debit card, PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, or Trustly. What matters is the licence and the payment rail behind the cashier, not the wrapping on the front. A player who installs a casino app from a brand that is not on the UKGC public register is installing an unlicensed product, and the protections the rest of this page describes do not apply.
Crypto casinos that still list ClickandBuy: a red flag, not a feature
A site that pairs a dead e-wallet with cryptocurrency deposits is signalling, by that combination, that it is not GB-licensed. No UK-licensed casino accepts ClickandBuy, because the company behind the wallet no longer exists. A site that lists ClickandBuy among its payment options is therefore either recycling a defunct payment-method page, which is sloppy but not necessarily unlicensed, or operating outside the GB licence altogether. If it is also offering Bitcoin, Ethereum or USDT, the latter is the more likely read: crypto-first brands sit overwhelmingly in the offshore market, where the UKGC’s licensing requirements do not bind them, and where the consumer protections the rest of this page describes do not extend.
Bitcoin and ClickandBuy: why the pairing signals an unlicensed site
ClickandBuy was dissolved on 24 February 2026. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are not, in themselves, illegal at a UK-licensed operator that chooses to offer them, but no major UK-licensed brand does. The pairing of the two is therefore a tell. An offshore site listing both is offering payment methods outside the UK Financial Conduct Authority’s e-money regime and outside the Gambling Commission’s licence perimeter. The protections GAMSTOP and the Commission’s complaints route provide are not available there, and any British consumer redress on a withheld withdrawal is effectively absent. The licensed alternatives in the table above are the places a UK player is meant to be, and a Bitcoin plus ClickandBuy casino is the place they are meant to avoid.
New casinos don’t take ClickandBuy — “new” means something else in 2026
The phrase “new ClickandBuy casino” is a contradiction in terms. No new casino can accept ClickandBuy, because the company behind the wallet was dissolved in February 2026. A “new UK casino” in 2026 means a new licence on the UKGC register, a new domain name that the register can be searched by, and a new cashier that takes debit cards and modern e-wallets. It does not mean a new payment rail, because the rail the keyword names is closed.
What a new UK casino site actually offers
A newly launched UK casino site in 2026 runs the same payment rails as the established set: debit card first, with PayPal, Skrill, Neteller and Trustly as e-wallet options. Credit cards and credit-card-funded e-wallets are out. Welcome offers run on the same 10× cap and the same wager-free spin shape described above, and the safer-gambling infrastructure is identical. The verification step a player is meant to take before depositing at any new brand is the same: search the UKGC public register by business name, trading name, domain name or account number, and confirm the licence is active. The register held 2,663 records at the last update on 29 July 2026, and a new site will appear there once the licence is granted, not before. A player who sees a “new” casino before it appears on the register is looking at a site that is not yet legal to serve GB customers.
The safety net around UK casino play
The infrastructure around UK casino play has thickened substantially since ClickandBuy’s day. GAMSTOP, the self-exclusion register, has been mandatory for every GB-licensed online operator since 31 March 2020, with exclusion periods of six months, one year, five years, or five years with auto-renewal, and no early cancellation. GamCare runs the 24/7 National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133, and made 996 referrals to treatment and peer-based support services in January 2026, up 48% year-on-year from 674 in January 2025. The NHS has 15 specialist gambling treatment clinics across England as of December 2024, and made 4,355 total referrals in 2024/25, up from 2,284 in 2023/24. Behind both, GambleAware funds the National Gambling Support Network, which treated 11,960 clients between April 2024 and March 2025, an 11% year-on-year increase. The Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey 2023–24 puts problem gambling prevalence in England at 0.4% of adults (PGSI score 8+) and at least moderate risk gambling at 1.6% (PGSI 3+). Of people contacting the National Gambling Helpline in 2026, 81.5% disclosed online forms of gambling, the highest proportion in five years and up from 72.9% in 2021. The infrastructure is real, the demand on it is growing, and the licensed market is the only one in which it applies.

Deposit limits, reality checks and the numbers behind them
The statutory deposit-limit framework is the cleanest piece of consumer protection to arrive in 2026. From 30 June 2026, extended to 30 September 2026, every GB-licensed operator must offer a gross deposit limit based solely on the money paid into the account, with decreases actioned immediately and increases subject to a 24-hour cooling-off. Only this form of limit may be called a “deposit limit.” Alongside that, the 2021 design rules require session losses, session wins and time played to be displayed in real time, and the financial vulnerability check at £150 net deposit in 30 days (from 28 February 2025) sits one tier below. The numbers behind the controls are not abstract: problem gambling prevalence in England is 0.4%, moderate risk 1.6%, and 81.5% of helpline contacts in 2026 were about online gambling. The infrastructure exists because the need is real, and the controls are the floor, not the ceiling.
How we chose and checked these casinos
Every operator in the table above was checked against the UK Gambling Commission’s public register on 29 July 2026, when the register held 2,663 records. The licence status listed for each is the status on that date. Welcome-offer terms were sourced from the operators’ own sites and from oddschecker, bookies and casinohawks, and the ClickandBuy dissolution was verified against Companies House and The Gazette. The safer-gambling figures came from GamCare, NHS England Digital and the Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey 2023–24. No operator was added because of a marketing relationship, and no operator was excluded because of one. The ranking is not weighted by a published formula; the table is ordered to put the largest wager-free spin offers first, the no-deposit entries next, and the cash-match exceptions last. The ClickandBuy company data is from the public Companies House record and from The Gazette notice of dissolution.
Stop searching for it — pick a licensed site and start playing
The search for casinos that accept ClickandBuy has a closed answer. The company is dissolved, the rail is defunct, and no UK-licensed operator will ever route a deposit through it again. The honest move is to stop searching for the dead wallet and pick one of the ten operators in the table above, fund it with a debit card or a modern e-wallet, and use the UKGC register to confirm the licence before depositing. GAMSTOP and the deposit-limit tools are there if a player needs them, and GamCare’s 24/7 helpline is there if a player wants to talk. No single brand is the right answer for every reader; the right answer is a licensed brand on a payment rail that exists.
Frequently asked questions
What happened to ClickandBuy and why did it close?
ClickandBuy International Limited, UK company number 05661160, was an e-wallet intermediary founded in 2005. The company entered voluntary liquidation on 4 January 2024 and was formally dissolved on 24 February 2026, per Companies House. Its website, app and merchant integration are all defunct, and no UK-licensed casino accepts it. The closure is the reason any “ClickandBuy casino” list in 2026 leads to brands that used to accept the rail, rather than brands that still do.
Can I still use ClickandBuy at any UK online casino?
No. The company was dissolved in February 2026, and no UK-licensed operator accepts ClickandBuy in 2026. The wallet, the app, and the merchant integration that connected casinos to the rail are all defunct. The replacement rails are a debit card or one of the modern e-wallets: PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, or Trustly.
Are credit cards banned at UK online casinos?
Yes, since 14 April 2020. The ban covers all remote gambling deposits and extends to credit-card-funded e-wallet deposits at licensed UK operators, under LCCP licence condition 6.1.2. Debit cards are unaffected and remain the baseline deposit method.
What is the current wagering cap on UK casino bonuses?
The cap is 10× bonus, in force since 19 December 2025 under LCCP Social Responsibility Code 5.1.1. The same provision also bans mixed-product promotional offers. The two cash-match offers in the table above (888casino and Betway) sit exactly at the 10× ceiling, and the spin offers sit at 0×.
How do I set a deposit limit at a UK-licensed casino?
From 30 June 2026, extended to 30 September 2026, every GB-licensed operator must offer a gross deposit limit. Decreases take effect immediately; increases are subject to a 24-hour cooling-off period. Only this form of limit may be called a “deposit limit.” The setting is reached through the responsible-gambling or safer-gambling menu of the operator’s site or app, and the same menu holds reality checks, time-outs and GAMSTOP self-exclusion.
Is it safe to play at an offshore casino that claims to accept ClickandBuy?
It is not safe in the sense a UK player means by safe. Any operator serving GB customers without a UKGC licence is breaking the law, and such operators are not on GAMSTOP, do not run the licensed vulnerability checks, and offer no British consumer redress on a withheld withdrawal. The ClickandBuy claim is itself a tell, because no UK-licensed casino accepts it. The licensed alternatives in the table above are the places a UK player is meant to be.
