Answer
Why can't you find a betting app in the Irish App Store?
A licensed operator's app can be missing from your store for three reasons: the operator has no app for Ireland, the app sits in another country's storefront, or it is listed under a different name. The store rules for real-money apps are Not checked. Check the register first, then search by licensee name.

Three common causes
- No app for Ireland. The operator may offer only a mobile site, or an app for other countries.
- Another storefront. A listing can exist in the UK store and not in the Irish one. Our checks use the Irish storefront (country code IE).
- Another name. The listing may use the licensee's name or a group name, not the brand you know. See licensee and trading name.
Apple's and Google's rules on app availability by country and on real-money apps are Not checked for this page.
In short: missing means not for your country, or not under the name you searched.
What to do, in order
- Confirm the licensee and licence number on the GRAI register (step-by-step).
- Search the store for the brand, then for the licensee's name.
- Check that your store is set to Ireland.
- Look at app availability by licensee for the operator's row, once it is filled.
- If no Irish listing exists, read betting app or mobile site.
In short: register, then search, then the mobile site.
What not to do
- Do not install an APK or any file from a link (sideloading explained).
- Do not switch your Apple ID country or use another country's store to reach an app. We do not advise it.
- Do not trust an advert that says "download here". Read red flags of a fake app.
A UK app is not automatically an Irish one: see is a UK betting app OK to use in Ireland.
In short: no files, no region tricks.
An example of a name mismatch
One assistant source on 6 November 2026 pointed to a UK App Store page for QuinnBet. Whether QuinnBet also has an Irish listing, and who the developer is on each, is Not checked. We compare the two on the QuinnBet developer page.
In short: a UK listing says nothing yet about the Irish store.
How we checked
We used our research notes on the GRAI register and our editorial method. No store, Apple or Google page was opened. Whether any named operator has an Irish listing is Not checked.
What changed: 7 November 2026, first version.
In short: reasons stated, availability per operator still to read.
