Licensing & regulation

Understanding who is licensed to serve players in Great Britain.

Lucky Lantern Guide itself is not licensed to offer gambling and does not accept bets or hold customer accounts. Instead, we advertise online casinos that are licensed and regulated to serve players in Great Britain. This page explains who the regulator is and how to double-check licence details yourself.

Who operates the casinos we advertise?

The casinos currently shown on Lucky Lantern Guide — including Casilando, Slot Planet and Spin Rider — are brands that sit on the White Hat Gaming platform. White Hat Gaming Limited is a company registered in Malta and, among other approvals, holds a remote gambling licence from the Gambling Commission of Great Britain under account / licence number 52894 for customers in Great Britain.

This means that if you open an account at one of these casinos as a player in Great Britain, your relationship is with the licensed operator (White Hat Gaming Limited or another named licence holder for that brand), not with Lucky Lantern Guide.

Verifying the licence yourself

You should always check the licence details directly on the Gambling Commission’s website:

Visit the Gambling Commission public register.
Confirm that the business name (for example, White Hat Gaming Limited) and account number (52894) match what is shown on the casino site.
Check that the licence covers the type of gambling being offered to you (for example, remote casino).

What this means for you as a player

Because Lucky Lantern Guide is only an advertising site:

We do not hold your balance or process your deposits and withdrawals.
We do not verify your identity, run affordability checks or manage your safer gambling limits.
We cannot resolve disputes about game outcomes, bonuses or withdrawals.

All of these responsibilities sit with the licensed operator behind the casino you choose. If you have a concern about your account, you must contact the casino’s customer support, and if needed, follow their complaints and dispute procedures.

Reporting concerns

If you believe a licensed operator is not acting fairly or is breaching its obligations, you can raise this with the casino in the first instance and then follow the steps suggested by the Gambling Commission, including using an approved Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) provider where applicable.
