In 2020 Betsson bought the consumer brands of Gaming Innovation Group: Rizk, Guts, Kaboo and Thrills. They came with the company Zecure Gaming Limited. We believe Zecure Gaming Limited is based in Malta, but we have not confirmed it.

License and what it means for you

Guts offers casino games and sports betting. Our data shows a UK Gambling Commission account for Zecure Gaming Limited, but we could not confirm its current status. Check the footer of the site for the licence that covers your country before you play. In Great Britain, GamStop self-exclusion covers all UK-licensed online sites.

Sister sites

Betsson runs 17 other brands in our data. They include Betsson, Betsafe, NordicBet, Rizk, Kaboo, Thrills, CasinoEuro and Jalla Casino. An account-level self-exclusion at Guts may not cover them.

Fines and regulator actions

Betsson companies have 6 fines and regulator actions in our data. In June 2020 Sweden's Spelinspektionen fined Betsson Nordic Ltd SEK 20 million and gave it a warning over an unregistered gaming agent and a bonus that broke the rules. In June 2025 the same regulator fined Betsson Nordic Ltd SEK 6.5 million for weak customer checks against money laundering; a court upheld the decision. In February 2025 Spain's DGOJ fined Premiere Megaplex, PLC €75,000 for using technical systems without approval. None of these actions name Guts directly.
