Who is behind it

SkillOnNet is a casino platform company founded in 2005 and based in Malta. It is private. Its founders include Kfir Chervinski, but the final shareholders are not published.

SkillOnNet runs its own brands, such as PlayOJO, SlotsMagic, DrueckGlueck and the former Prime Gaming sites. It also powers casinos for partners such as Genting and Slingo. Its UK licence covers about 60 website domains. So many casinos that look different share one operator, one back office and one compliance team.

License and what it means for you

The UK and Malta are strict regulators. Players in Great Britain get UK Gambling Commission rules on identity checks, safer-gambling tools and complaints. PlayOJO also serves the EU and Canada. The footer names Skill On Net Limited as the operator. Skill On Net Limited also holds licences in Sweden (Spelinspektionen), Germany (GGL) and Portugal (SRIJ), and is registered with iGaming Ontario in Canada.

Sister sites

The same company runs SlotsMagic, Spin Genie, DrueckGlueck, EUcasino, Euromania, ICE36, MegaCasino, Lord Ping and many more. Sister sites often share terms, support and payout processes. A self-exclusion at PlayOJO may not cover them, so check each one.

Fines and regulator actions

In May 2023 Skill On Net Limited agreed to pay £305,150 to the UK Gambling Commission instead of a penalty. The regulator found anti-money-laundering and safer-gambling failures in 2021-2022. For example, the firm accepted customers' own statements about where their money came from. It also let players go over its own £2,000 limit for unverified deposits. Sweden's Spelinspektionen fined Skill On Net SEK 14 million in June 2019 and gave it a warning for letting self-excluded players gamble. In November 2025 the same regulator gave the company a remark over missing safer-gambling information on its site.
