Match means the same company or a named group company. It is not read until both sides are filled.
In short: one side of the table holds a candidate value; the other side is empty.
Why the number matters more than the domain
The register's domain field is empty for all 40 B2C entries in the snapshot. A domain therefore cannot be matched to a licence from the register alone.
A licensee must show its licence number on each online platform (s.110(1)(a)(ii)). We match the number on the operator's site to the register.
In short: the licence number is the link between a website and a register entry.
How we compare them
- Open the GRAI register on the day and search LC International Limited. Match the number, type and dates.
- Open the Ladbrokes listing in the Irish App Store. Note the developer name and update date.
- Open the Ladbrokes listing on Google Play and note the same two fields.
- Compare the three names. Record: same, group company, or different.
- Add the date and the register link.
In short: five steps, and the result is one word per store.
If the names differ
A different developer name is not proof of a problem: a group company may publish the app. It is a question to answer before you install.
- Look for the operator's own explanation of who publishes the app.
- If you cannot link the developer to the licensee, do not install.
- To report a doubtful app, see reporting a fake app.
In short: a mismatch is a prompt to ask, and a reason to wait before installing.
How we checked
We used our compliance note only. The register entry and both listings are unread for this version. This page does not say whether the operator is licensed; the register on the day does. Steps: check a licence.
In short: the register values are candidates until the register is read on the day.
